- “Hoarding” and “warehousing” arise from traditional, not no-kill, shelter models (Pet Connection): Nice overview of the ideal version of the No Kill shelter movement. I definitely think this version of No Kill is a good idea. The version described to me in school differs from what Christie describes here. My conclusion is that there are good shelters and bad shelters, and some of each like to call themselves No Kill. The name you use isn’t important; the policies you implement are, and the approach described here is one I support.
