When you think of Hawaii, visions of palm trees, frosty umbrella drinks and white sand beaches languidly sway in your imagination.  But life can be hard if you are a homeless cat or dog.  Pet overpopulation is not just a mainland dilemma.  The impact of homelessness affects not only the cats and dogs but also the fragile wildlife on the islands.  How are the islanders addressing the problem?  What can we learn from them….and why are there so many chickens on the Kauai?  Dr. Becky Rhoades of the Kauai Humane Society will share her story of being a veterinarian in paradise.
