points out in an article today, what really matters is the animals.

In case you didn't know, our good friends at PAWS represent the adoption branch of the Philadelphia Animal Care & Control Association, which has been the city's contractor for animal services for the last several years. Here's an example of how it worked (in an admittedly oversimplified way): When a person saw a stray animal, he or she would call the city (or PACCA directly), for PACCA to catch the animal. When the PACCA workers caught the animal, if it was adoptable, they would turn it over to PAWS so that it could be adopted out.
