You will have ample chance to find out exactly who are all the characters in the present committee who must be kicked out.
Th last group of nominees had someone from WWF who had a proven track record on paper, loves animals and was willing to give PAWS her time and support. Maha relatives out-voted the real members and chose someone who I believe is a retiree or a housewife who has never even stepped into PAWS before (she was not at the AGM either). When the time comes, you will get the AGM notice and people will be after your vote claiming that they look after animals for the handicap, pawn their jewels to save PAWS, put PAWS in their last will (so if they die, PAWS benefit) but of course they must run PAWS now without being questioned -- for the good of the dogs, it is their personal backyard. No one else cares, no one else can do the job properly, everyone wants to steal PAWS's money etc etc . You will hear it all.
Aiyah... trust your head and your heart. Open your eyes and listen to both sides. As a member, you need people whom you trust to run a facility like PAWS. It is not fundraising, jumble sales and pretty faces/pictures in the newspapers, BUT the lives of unwanted animals at stake. And at the rate they process MPPJ/MPSA dogs , surrendered animals (without payment), they kill hundreds every month. You claim that you saw with your own eyes ... so you know what is going on.
Its time to 'kick-ass' and get those people who ran PAWS into the ground for years and years OUT and keep them OUT for good.
In my opinion, we find people who are willing to come to PAWS every week, two weeks... clean the shit in the dog and cat cages, wash the dogs and treat the animals like they would their own pets are the true animal lovers. There are few already in the current committe who are true and dedicated, but too many are time wasters who do not even believe in neutering animals before they are allowed out of PAWS... Why on earth are these people running an animal shelter when basic concepts about proper animal control //population management are beyond their comprehension. So we let these animals leave with any Tom Dick and Harry without being neutered, and they breed and PAWS gets more money from good people who bring in stray puppies... Figures
You are young you say... but your youth is actually an asset. PAWS needs young people to inject new ideas, new and up to date policies about humane care and management. And your youth is exactly what frightens the old lady and her pet vet.
