It needs to be privatized or needs a change of the guard, as in not run like a prison for cats in particular.

I located the contact info for Tim Lee.

http://leeforcobb.com/contact.aspx
email : tlee@cobbcounty.org

He is the Commission Chairman for Cobb.

I understand he is known as an animal lover.

He is also up for re-election next year.

Some folks have already voiced concerns to him in the past about the Cobb Shelter and I am not aware of any outcomes of their concerns but I am not seeing any positive changes based on this Senior Cat atrocity recently.

I would assume it would have more impact if he was contacted by Cobb voters concerning the sorry state of Animal Control in one of the wealthiest counties in the U.S.

Only when jobs at the Shelter are on the line would notice be taken but then you can’t make bad people make good decisions.

Dewey,the Senior Poster Cat is killed, before even getting much time to benefit from the two week Cobb Senior Cat Adoption Waiver Program.

I have worked countless hours to promote this and I am beyond pissed and sad.
…
Yes, one cat does matter. Was it more than one Senior?

If ever a “cleaning house” of Animal Shelter Reform is needed, Cobb Animal Control is the Poster Child for that!
Wake up Cobb County.

I am officially withdrawing supporting Cobb for the “ASPCA Challenge”.
It’s all double talk.
They will use the money to just build a bigger kill shelter.

Please support Cherokee County Animal Control in this Challenge.
Volunteer to help them adopt as many as they can.
They at least have the right mindset.

I am sorry Dewey that they didn’t give you your chance.
RIP Dewey.

I would adopt an older cat in a heartbeat. I have 1 older cat now and would certainly make room for at least 1, maybe 2 more.
