do health inspectors go to cat shelters in ohio?
Chandler34 asked:
I was wondering if health inspectors inspect non-profit cat shelters in Ohio? If so then does any one know where I could find the laws and regulations the cat shelter would have to follow.

All registered shelters are inspected by the local humane society. Unfortunately they are usually warned before an inspection. If you are concerned about a particular shelter, you can register a complaint with your local humane society, and they will do an unannounced inspection.

Good suggestion. Another one is to contact the HSUS, get a bunch of people to contact the HSUS if conditions are horrific, abusive, dirty, lack of care or whatever. They will do an inspection and the shelter will have to abide by their findings. It takes a little time, but our local shelter just got inspected and we’re about to receive a final report soon.
