Did you take a look at the supporting documents (link in the article)? I'm not clear on how they arrive at the 95% figure.

The numbers for euthanised animals for 2008 are 2369 out of 10016 handled by the organization: this includes animals other than just cats and dogs.

So, it appears that fewer than 25% of the animals that were processed by PETA were euthanised, and there's no data on how many of those, if any, were adoptable.
