Step away fake Hollywood superheroes whose superpowers are CGI – we have a real hero in town! They say that not all heroes wear capes, but this one happens to be wearing a cool one. What’s the coolest thing of all is that this superhero is fighting for those who don’t have a voice – animals left in the shelters. 27-year-old Chris Van Dorn has always been a fan of Batman but when he began volunteering for animal rescue organizations around Orlando, Florida, he decided to use this persona to bring attention to the importance of pet adoption.

4. Florida has NO spay/neuter laws. None. Zero, zip, nada.

There are innumerable rescue shelters and kill shelters. It’s a business.

Small shops in FL may have a back room area where they keep 2-3 dogs for rescue. It’s very sad.

5. :(

Thanks for the info. That is very sad.

8. The AKC will always oppose spay & neuter legislation

as long as there are no exceptions made. I'm not saying that's right or wrong, but they could (if they wanted to) make a law to spay/neuter dogs and cats unless special fees are paid by legitimate breeders for exceptions. The fees could be used to improve shelters and give animals more of a chance for adoption.

17. It's a business?

I'm not sure I understand the context of what you appear (to me) to be implying. For what it's worth, NO state has an across the board mandatory s/n law for all pets. I think Rhode Island is probably the closest, at least that I know of. I could be wrong.

It would be wonderful if each state did adopt a mandatory s/n policy for all domestics, I think we can agree.

Florida does at least have a statute in regards to animals that are adopted out to the public from shelters, etc that they all have to be spay/neutered one way or another. So, not quite NO spay/neuter laws. Not none, nor zero, nor zip, nor nada.

11. He is indeed a Superhero!

Love these pics!! 💕

But one of my 2 furkids would be terrified of someone in such a costume - Halloween terrifies her almost as much as the 4th does.

FL is a bad state for both kids and furries.

12. This is just me, but letting a cat loose is your car is a bad idea...

14. Depends on the cat.

I had a Siamese who loved to ride in the car. She was more like a dog than a cat. When she was with me she had full access to the car interior. Her favorite spot was curled up in the back window.

16. I had a cat like that.

She loved riding in the car and didn't get under my feet when I was driving or run around the car interior.

18. My cats don't mind the car at all

Once the vet check is finished, I let the cat out of its carrier to roam around as it pleases.
