The book, Animal Shelter Portraits , captures just a small glimpse of what our furry friends experience in shelter situations. From dogs to cats, kittens, and even birds and rabbits, there are all kinds of animals to be found at shelters. The photos in the book made me want to reach out and save each one of them.

They did not experiment on primates (I asked!), but did experiment on mice and guinea pigs. Interesting that many of the grants this place gets specifically say they can't experiment on any domesticated animals (cats and dogs I guess.). It reminded me of an adoption poster at the animal shelter. It was a jarring moment.
