Thanks for the comments guys. I'm always interested in how
other states are fighting their pet overpopulation problems.

I did want to make clear that the Indy groups I-CAN and
FACE are not city funded. They are both non-profit groups who
are supported by donations & fees charged for surgeries.

There was a big public outcry over a investigative report done
by the Indianapolis Star paper that revealed the enormous
amount of animals euthanized every single day at our city's
Animal Care & Control Dept Shelter and at the private Indy
Humane Society Shelter. People were totally shocked by this
report.

It did galvanize a lot of support for change. Both ACC
dept & Indy Humane Society now spay/neuter all pets before
adoption (The didn't before),and I-CAN & FACE both advertise
the low cost spay/neuter everywhere around town.
