Commissioner's Letter Concerning The MCAS
 
I would like to thank all of the people who attended Commissioners
Court this week to voice their comments and concerns about the
Montgomery County Animal Shelter. It is clear that area residents feel deeply about taking care of all animal, especially lost, abandoned and neglected animals and the county's duty to handle this responsibility.
 
While the shelter faces many challenges that cannot be resolved
overnight, we are directing our staff and our resources to improve
conditions at the facility, make sure that animals are fed, cages are
cleaned regularly and animals are being treated humanely.
 
Abuse of animals will not be tolerated at MCAS. While many comments regarding conditions at the facility have been found to be inaccurate or exaggerations of known problems, we take these issues seriously. Indeed, anyone with direct knowledge of animal abuse is encouraged to contact Joe Guidry, director of Montgomery County Animal Control at [email protected] or the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office at 936-760-5800.
 
The staff, volunteers and support groups working at MCAS put forth a great deal of effort and have a significant positive effect on the lives of cats and dogs at the shelter. In recent weeks, we have begun creating policies and procedures that will ultimately improve
conditions at the shelter. Change is difficult, but necessary.
 
What we also need to do, however, is communicate better with the
public − to offer greater transparency about conditions, activities
and progress at the shelter. This has been made very clear and
something we intend to do better immediately.
 
I took on oversight responsibility for MCAS because I share a love of animals and a commitment to serve the people of Montgomery County. I hope you will join me in helping make our shelter a better facility − for the community as well as the animals housed there.
 
Jim Clark
 
Montgomery County
 
Precinct 4 Commissioner

Dear Sir, Have you read the latest blog regarding the conditions at the shelter? Please help me and the community understand that this is not going to happen any longer.Or do we need to get PETA involved here?
