Sheltered: Images From a Life Among Shelter Pets and Their People

Abstract

I hope to provide a glimpse into the shelter system that will leave my readers understanding that animal shelters are about so much more than euthanasia and adoptions. My goal is to prove that shelters are not limited to the sad stereotypes that society assigns to them, but instead are full of the same complex array of emotions and interactions that one can find in other areas of life.
