Description	In 2012, the APL assisted more than 16,000 animals through a variety of programs and services. The APL's humane investigations department opened nearly 1,300 new cases in response to reports of animal cruelty and rescued nearly 450 animals from abuse or neglect. Through the adoption program, nearly 6,600 animals were placed into new homes. Through the transfer program, nearly 1,200 animals came into the APL from overcrowded shelters so they could go up for adoption. Through the APL Shelter Clinic and Animal Welfare Spay/Neuter Clinic, nearly 11,600 animals were sterilized, including more than 5,000 stray cats through the Trap-Neuter-Return program. Finally, the Second Chance Program allowed the APL's veterinary team to provide medical care to homeless animals who had treatable illnesses and injuries.	Description
