Cats And Baseball??

[RICHARD]

There is a famous film clip of a cat who ran onto the field during a baseball game 14 years ago.

That cat gave the initiative to Tony LaRussa to start ARF, located in the San Francisco area.

A great story.

In the early 1970s, roughly 46,000 animals were put to sleep each year in the county, Ross said. In 1983 the number was reduced to just over 21,000; a decade later it was 11,000; last year it was 6,479. The reasons: the snowball effect of low-cost spaying and neutering, educational outreach, and adoption efforts, including at ARF, Ross said.

That is a really exiting statistic! Great story to post Richard :D these things always make me smile
