I believe people who go to BYB or run to look at oops puppies and kittens would go to a shelter if there were no oops litters to look for. Now if someone wants to show or do something specific they'd then go to a reputable breeder (hopefully), but that is different. They have a specific thing in mind they want to do with that breed of dog, where-as the people who just adopt an oops puppy or kitten from their neighbor or from a box in front of Wal-Mart, if none of those were available then they might go to the shelter and help save some pups or kittens who otherwise would be PTS.
I'm glad to hear the kitties will be fixed soon, and that the kittens have homes lined up. I do hope the kittens are also fixed so that there aren't anymore oops litters.
Edit: Just watched the video from DH (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=103570) God that is painful. But well done.
