Foreclosures Keeping Animal Protective Services Agency Busy

Cleveland, Ohio television station Fox 8 reports:
  • Family pets are fast becoming helpless victims of the foreclosure crisis in Northeast Ohio. The Portage Animal Protective League in Ravenna answers calls almost daily for pets left locked up in foreclosed homes. "I know our number of calls has increased," P.A.P.L. Director Sheila Vandergriff said. "We're now receiving calls from realtors, construction companies going in to work on homes where people have been evicted, calls from the sheriffs office."
