They say they're innocent of any wrong doing.
Their overseers claim they have evidence to the contrary.
Push came to shove on Wednesday, when the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals officially suspended the Toronto Humane Society as a member after serving a search warrant at the organization' s River St. premises on Tuesday.
At issue is the THS's strict policy of not euthanizing animals. Former workers and critics have come forward charging the Society with cruelty, alleging they've let dogs, cats and other creatures suffer in pain and die in their cages to keep that ideal intact.
But the SPCA, which looks after all such animal groups in the province, claims it found four cats in "serious condition" at the shelter, with problems that should have been immediately addressed. The group refused to give specifics, except to say there was an "immediate potential loss of life" if action wasn't taken.
