Animal Overpopulation, Hot, Humid Weather

1.) WEATHER » Say hello to more humidity. It’ll be partly sunny with a chance of showers during the day. Highs will be in the mid-80s and evening lows will be in the high-60s, but with 70 percent humidity during the day and 83 percent humidity at night, temperatures will feel much higher. Prepare for the week ahead with the Accuweather forecast.

4.) YOU SAID IT » "The assumption that ALL animals in shelters started out as PETS and not feral captures or abandoned animals (because the homes in which they lived were actually unsuitable for animals) invalidates much of the math in this article and also does not take into consideration the aging population, the common decision not to replace a deceased pet, the general rate at which people move to and from the county, and the number of homes where a pet was adopted but the home was unsuitable," - Betsy Delaney on Examining the "Pet Overpopulation Problem"
