Nathan Winograd

Nathan J. Winograd is an American attorney, animal advocate, and director of No Kill Advocacy Center in Oakland, California. On pet overpopulation, in a 2007 interview with Center for Consumer Freedom about his book Redemption, Winograd said:[2]

it's "a myth." "Based on the number of existing households with pets who have a pet die or run away, more homes potentially become available each year for cats than the number of cats who enter shelters, while more than twice as many homes potentially become available each year for dogs than the number of dogs who enter shelters. ... As a movement, the humane community has accepted the idea that the best shelters can do for homeless animals is to adopt out some and kill the rest. To try to avoid criticism for this, to justify a paltry number of adoptions, these groups have perpetuated the myth that there are simply more animals than homes, something that is patently false (even though most people believe it)." ... When San Francisco became the first city in the U.S. to save all healthy, homeless dogs and cats, and was effectively talking to the public about pet adoption, there was not a single pet store left in the city selling dogs and cats. It didn’t start out that way, but that was the result. Why? Because they couldn't compete with the SPCA.
