LOS ANGELES — Dogs doubled up in city kennels. Kittens dumped at shelters. Hamsters going overnight with no food or water.
A Los Angeles City Council committee hearing Tuesday brought forth new details and allegations about the dogs, cats, rabbits and other animals at city shelters.
The three-hour meeting brought relief to many volunteers — the unpaid members of the public upon whom the city relies to walk dogs and perform other chores at the shelters — who say they have been raising concerns to city leaders for years.
