LACACC's priority

It is safe for me to conclude that the priority of the LA County Animal Care and Control department has nothing to do with the animals.

Tomorrow will be the 10th day that the website is down. The administration staff put out emails stating that it's their "top priority" and they are working "around the clock" to fix the problem with "no estimated time of repair". If any other departmental site goes down - I am sure the problem would be addressed right away.

The animals sitting in all six shelters need help from the public and rescuers to put pressure on the people who are supposedly in the position to run the department - otherwise, they absolutely NOTHING will get accomplished. Why? because these people simply do not care.

The staff members (both at the shelters and in Admin) who cared have all left the department out of frustration and the blatant absence of compassionate leadership on the part of the director and her deputy directors. It is truly a travesty leadership.
