The Gallia County Animal Welfare League (GCAWL) is a not-for-profit, tax-exempt organization based in Gallia County, Ohio. We do not tolerate animal abuse, cruelty, or neglect and will work to ensure animal abusers are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. We are comprised exclusively of volunteers who are dedicated to decreasing the pet overpopulation problem. We provide spay/neuter assistance and emergency assistance for individuals who meet the requirements, and we endeavor to find loving homes for all pets in Gallia County.
An average of 2,500 puppies and kittens are born every hour in the United States. Some of these animals go to loving homes, but many end up on the streets where they face an uncertain future. Some will be hit by cars, some will contract diseases, some will fall into the hands of unscrupulous people. Still others will find their way into shelters. As fortunate as these animals are to be off the streets, there is no guarantee as to how many will eventually be adopted. Last year, for instance, 200,000 animals were euthanized in the state of Ohio alone, simply because there were no homes available for them.
The blame for pet overpopulation falls squarely in the laps of humans. Likewise, the responsibility for ending it also rests with us. We made cats and dogs a part of our society long ago, and it is up to us to help them in their hour of need. Spaying and neutering of pets and strays is the only way to combat this enormous international problem.
