Message From The President

Dear Friend,

Strong anti-cruelty laws that provide stiff penalties for animal abusers are the most effective tools we have to protect animals from mistreatment and to promote a more humane culture throughout Texas. THLN is the only animal advocacy group in Texas whose entire resources are dedicated to this mission.

Animal abuse and neglect, the pet overpopulation crisis, euthanasia methods used at animal control facilities and horse slaughter are among the issues we will continue to address through legislation.

Special interest groups who oppose legal protection for animals are formidable opponents at the Capitol. But because of caring, intelligent people like you, the animals have an effective voice at the Texas Legislature.

Thank you for visiting THLN's website. Your participation is vital to our efforts in helping make Texas a safer, more humane state for animals.

Sincerely,

Cile Holloway
