PORT ARTHUR, Texas — A Southeast Texas veterinarian who helped Beaumont become a no-kill city is offering to do the same for Port Arthur if the city will allow her to. 'The benefits of no-kill are enormous,' Kelley Kays, doctor of veterinary medicine, said. 'Companies can recruit using that slogan. It's a sense of pride within the city when you know you've taken care of your animals.' Dr. Kays said the Port Arthur Municipal Shelter saves 46 percent of the animals they take in. The veterinarian believes by becoming a no-kill city, Port Arthur could save hundreds of animals.
