Meade County Animal Shelter in Code Red Crisis, in need of adoptions and community supportThe Meade County Animal Control is experiencing difficult times at its animal shelter and has issued a code red. A code red means the shelter is full, if not overly full, and has stopped all intakes. This also means that the animals that are at the shelter are in danger of being euthanized at any time because they have been there the longest with little to no interest. This is a requirement of the State of Kentucky, not of Meade County. A Code Red also results in the shelter not being able to take in new animals, putting strays in danger. The shelter needs help from the community, and of course adoptions, but if you are not in a place to adopt you can still support the shelter and its animals in this time of need.17 days ago
