Question
An animal shelter, serving a low-income community, is experiencing a dramatic increase in the number of homeless cats and dogs received at the shelter. The shelter staff are worried because the increase is impacting their ability to care equally for all their other animals and many people in the community cannot afford to adopt a dog or cat. They decide to implement a new promotion where they keep the current fee structure and reduce the paperwork and forego the usual reference checks to encourage more adoptions.Which of the below are implications of this proposed solution?Choose two answers. Many people have no interest at all in adopting a dog or cat. Other animals may not receive the care they need. Adoption fees may prevent people from participating. There are too many homeless cats and dogs at the shelter. Pets may be matched with irresponsible owners.
Solution
The two implications of the proposed solution could be:
-
Pets may be matched with irresponsible owners: By reducing the paperwork and foregoing the usual reference checks, the shelter may inadvertently allow pets to be adopted by individuals who are not prepared or suitable to care for them.
-
Adoption fees may prevent people from participating: Even though the shelter is trying to encourage more adoptions, the current fee structure may still be a barrier for many people in the low-income community, preventing them from adopting a pet.
