I posted this here because Gen Discussion gets the most views and this is an urgent topic:
Fosters needed for Katrina animal refugees
Transport Provided to Anywhere - Room Desperately Needed for the Animal
Victims of Katrina
There is transportation provided, with people ready and waiting, for
upwards of 200 dogs and 150 cats so far rescued from the devastation
of hurricane Katrina. What these animals need is a place to go.
Kennels, boarding, vets offices, shelters with any extra space,
foster homes and rescues. Even one or two open kennels would greatly
help.
From what we know, all animals have been vaccinated and are in good
health considering the conditions. There are dogs and cats of every
breed and size.
Some are in groups of two, three or four, hailing from the same
family, while some are solitary. ANY KENNEL SPACE AVAILABLE CAN
CERTAINLY BE USED.
These drivers are willing to move these animals ANYWHERE they need
to go. Absolutely anywhere.
The current safe houses for these animals are being inundated and
some of these pets will have to be euthanized if they are not moved
to make room for the incoming animals.
Please feel free to pass on this information everywhere. Every
forum, every list, every community.
REMEMBER THESE ANIMALS WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO YOU.
If you know anyone, anywhere, that is willing to take in even one
cat or dog please have them contact Lynda at the information
provided below.
They are also asking for ANY kind of donations for the animals -
money, food, bedding, water, etc.
