PROTECTING
PETS IN CARS
Does the New Law
do Enough?
You may have heard about the new
law that took effect January 1, 2016,
making it an act of animal cruelty
to leave your pet exposed to
extreme heat or cold. Specifically,
the law makes it illegal for pet
owners to expose a dog or cat in
a manner that places the animal
in “a life-threatening situation
for a prolonged period of time in
extreme heat or cold conditions
that results in injury to or death of
the animal.” (see 510 ILCS 70/3.01(c))
All good, right? Critics are saying,
“not so.” The way it’s written,
the pet owner can’t be charged
with cruelty unless the animal is
actually injured or dies, and there’s
no penalty at all if the owner’s
conduct doesn’t lead to such tragic
results. A new draft amendment
(See House Bill 5010) aims to fix
the problem by making it illegal to
expose a dog or cat “in a manner
that is detrimental to the animal’s
health.” It’s too soon to say
whether this revision will become
law. Some animal advocates say
it goes too far the other way and
will be deemed “too vague” by
lawmakers. We will keep watching
developments on the legislative
front and keep you posted.

SHELTER KITTIES LOVE
DOUBLE-WIDES
Animal sheltering has
come a long way since
1988, when our shelter
was built. For example,
recent research has
shown that the smaller
the area in which a cat
is confined, the more
likely she is to exist in a
constant state of stress.
Stress in shelter cats is a
bad thing! Stressed cats
become sick cats, and
sick cats lead to more
sick cats . . . and that can
lead to a shelter full of
sneezing, wheezing, unhappy cats.
“Come any closer with that
camera, and I’m outta-here.”
So to make our cats as happy and healthy as possible, we’re
converting our standard 2’ x 2’ stainless steel cages into “doublewides” by installing closable port-holes between the cages. When
the port-hole is open, one cat has 2 cages all to himself. More
space = less stress.
We’ve completed the conversion to double-wides in Cat Holding,
the room where cats are housed immediately after arrival. Cats
stay in Cat Holding until they are ready to move up for adoption,
which can be as few as 2-to-3 days, or as many as 10, in the case of
cats that are extremely timid.
Natalie Piper, CCHS Volunteer
Coordinator and Animal Behavior
Specialist, is enthusiastic about the
improvement. “Cats in Holding are
typically very frightened when staff
members approach or open the
cage door. We’re seeing the cats in
double-wides come-around faster.

Love Letters
Paw Prints is the newsletter of the
Champaign County Humane Society.
Incorporated in 1951, CCHS is a
nonprofit, nongovernmental organization
dedicated to instilling respect,
kindness, and compassion for animals
as community values.
“Just wanted to give you an update on Ferris. He’s
doing wonderfully & we love him to death. I also
adopted a sweet 13-year old cat, Newman-O, a little
before Christmas. I caught Ferris and Newman-o
grooming each other and they often sleep next to
each other.”
Ferris
– Jennifer Trueblood
“Miss Stormy, though shy as promised
is settling into her new home already.
In true cat form, she thought her
adoption paperwork was the perfect place to
sit when I got it out to review. She follows us
all through the house – maybe we should have
named her Shadow!

Its work includes preventing cruelty
to animals, promoting animal welfare,
educating the public about humane care
and treatment of animals, increasing
public awareness of the companion
animal overpopulation issue and
providing solutions, and providing high
quality shelter, medical, and adoption
services for animals when necessary.

CAT PORTHOLES
Continued from page 1
Having the option to retreat gives them confidence, and
they don’t feel trapped when we approach.”
Animal Care Supervisor, Breanne Tabbert, likes the portholes too. “The port-holes make it much easier for staff
to clean the cages because we can clean one side of the
cage at a time, without handling the cat. It’s much less
stressful for the cats.”
Next we’ll be installing the port-holes in the cages in
Nine-Lives-Nook, and Cat Isolation. Big thanks go to
volunteers Cory McQueen; Denny and Carol Miller; and
Aladdin Electric for their help with the project.
