🚨 LOS ANGELES: OUR ANIMALS NEED YOUR HELP!!🚨 @therescuetrain repost LIFE OR DEATH DECISION for L.A. city shelter animals. Mayor Bass’s budget will: ❌ CLOSE 3 shelters ❌ LAY OFF 62 critical staff ❌ LEAVE animals with nowhere to go We must act NOW to save them. @mayorofla proposed budget slashes $6.4 million from LA Animal Services, will lay off 62 critical shelter employees, and close 3 of our 6 city shelters — Harbor, West LA, and West Valley. 🔴 Our shelters are already drowning at 155% capacity — this will be CATASTROPHIC for the animals depending on us. 🔴 Less staff = less care, more suffering, and MORE unnecessary euthanasia. WAYS YOU CAN HELP: 🐾 1) MAKE SOME CALLS! 📞 WHAT TO SAY: “Hello, my name is [Your Name], and I’m a resident of Los Angeles.
