Lafayette Animal Shelter and Care Center announces new no-kill policy
and last updated 2021-02-25 19:08:09-05
LAFAYETTE â On Wednesday, the Lafayette Animal Shelter and Care Center, located on West Pont Des Mouton Road, announced their new no-kill policy.
In 2016, former Mayor-President Joel Robideaux put in place an initiative to set a goal for the shelter to reach a no-kill status by 2020. The shelter says they wouldn t have been able to reach that goal if it wasn t for the help from the community and various non-profit organizations who stepped up to help. It s like a stool that has four legs, and we need all of these legs to make it happen, says Shelley Delahoussaye, the supervisor at Lafayette Animal Shelter. If we didn t have the volunteers, if we didn t have the support of the community, if we didn t have our fosters, there is absolutely no way we could have done this.
