The cost of euthanizing animals in Bulloch Co.

More than $52K spent to 'put down' almost 4,300 animals in nearly 3 years

Giselle arrived at the Bulloch County Animal Shelter on July 22. Because of limited space, she was deemed a last chance animal, which meant she was next to be euthanized unless space at the shelter becomes available. This is her on Oct. 29. - photo by JENNIFER CURINGTON/special

Giselle is a fluffy, dust gray cat with glowing yellow eyes and regal posture. She spent several months living in the Bulloch County Animal Shelter and could have been put down any day, or any minute. Giselle entered the shelter July 22 and was not adopted during the standard 14 days strays have to find an adoptive home before they can be put down.
