After falsely claiming for 2.5+ yrs that it has been closed to adopters "due to COVID," the Humane Society of NY has announced ADA renovations that will eventually enable its shelter to re-open. But will the animals continue to be stuck in cages until then?https://t.co/tYazNjV7jR
🚨How many more catastrophes like this in rush-hour Midtown traffic need to occur before @NYCSpeakerAdams @NYCCouncil @Lynn4NYC pass Ryder’s Law?
Paddy the horse is injured - needs a thorough vet exam. @nycHealthy https://t.co/PoVwWVgixq

Infectious disease outbreak tied to #kaporos should be warning to @DrMaryTBassett & @nycHealthy that allowing pop-up slaughterhouses on public streets and 100K+ people to handle live birds jeopardizes the public health. Campylobacter now. #avianflu later? https://t.co/7L1radtE4k

This powerful letter to the editor by filmmaker Donny Moss was published in today’s @nytimes highlighting that no amount of regulation or enforcement can make the operation of horse carriages humane or safe. Horses are herd animals and prey animals.

In 3 weeks, NYC taxpayers will subsidize the ritual killing of tens of thousands of animals in makeshift slaughterhouses erected by Hasidim on public streets w/o permits in violation of 7 NYC health codes. #Kaporos@elizashapiro@laforgia_@brianmrosenthal https://t.co/KW3ErCM3ky
The horses who are forced to pull carriages are stored in multi-story garages at night. No escape in the event of a fire. No pasture for grazing or interacting physically, as herd animals do. Stripped of everything. @NYCSpeakerAdams@TwuSamuelsen@nytopinion - The time has come.
After flogging his sick, suffering, collapsed horse, this carriage owner, named Ian Mckeever, lounged and relaxed in his carriage while his horse writhed in agony on the hot pavement.
📲RETWEET to ask @NYCSpeakerAdams@NYCMayor@NYCCouncil to END the abuse and pass Intro 573.
BREAKING: Carriage horse found dead in midtown during record 100F heatwave.
City must investigate. But half measures are not working.
It is URGENT for @NYCCouncil@NYCSpeakerAdams to pass #573 to phase out horse carriages before another tragedy.

Advocates protested Humane Society of NY over the warehousing of cats/dogs when @OfficialBPeters brought the shelter’s animal trainer onto the stage during #BroadwayBarks adoption event. Shelter closed to adopters for 27 months; animals languish in cages. https://t.co/dfMwxx2qr8
