Purportedly “pet-friendly” hotel Loews Portofino Bay quietly posted a comment on their Facebook page today announcing that the TNR-managed feral cat colony making their home at the hotel will be removed and brought to the county animal services center. Ignoring offers of help and calls for humane approaches from Alley Cat Allies, Loews claimed the cats would be “relocated” to their new destination–with no mention of the fact that nearly 100% of feral cats entering shelters are killed. In doing so, they are threatening the lives of the cats and ignoring months of pleas from the humane community and compassionate vacationers.
Loews buried this shocking announcement in a comment on a two-month old note. Don’t let them hide this despicable decision. Share this message with everyone you know to show your disapproval!
