“This is a huge milestone,” Madison County Chairman Kurt Prenzler said.
Shelters with a live or save outcome rate of above 90 percent are considered no-kill. Madison County’s save rate for 2020 was 97 percent for dogs and 98 percent for cats.
Prenzler praised animal control and the rescue groups for all the work they do to save the lives of the cats and dogs brought into Madison County.
“This is a combined effort between animal control and the rescues,” Prenzler said. “Without their help we wouldn’t be able to do this. We reached our goal long before the anticipated date set by the County Board.”
