    There have been homeless animals since a long time ago. Many animals find their way to animal homes. At the homes, some are adopted(领养), but some are very sick or old and they do not get adopted. Instead, these animals are sometimes killed in a proper way. In the 1980s, about seventeen million(百万) dogs and cats were killed each year in America. Today, the number is much smaller because of places like Best Friends.

    Best Friends began in the 1980s. It was a place for" unadopted" animals to go. It was known as the sanctuary(避难所).The workers gave those animals the care they needed. They found homes for them. Some did not find homes. Those animals stayed at the sanctuary until they passed away. Best Friends hopes there will be "No More Homeless Pets" in the future.

    Now, about two thousand dogs, cats, and other animals think of Best Friends as their home. The animals get the special care that they need. Trainers, caregivers and doctors care for the animals.

    Many animals only need to spend a few weeks there. Good homes are then found for them. People who want to adopt animals should reach Best Friends. If they are kind to animals and promise to take good care of them, they can take them home.
