Animal welfare groups rescue abandoned pets
This article says that animal welfare groups -- previously barred from
entering most flood-affected areas -- have finally reached areas to set up shelters, rescue endangered pets, and move them to safety. http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/...trescues_x.htm The article also has links to a number of groups where we can make donations for rescue. I would like to repeat the information that I provided in an earlier message -- You can find more info and ways to donate needed items or money he http://www.noahswish.com/Who%20We%20Are.htm http://www.uan.org Noah's Wish is run by Terri Crisp, who wrote Out Of Harm's Way, the story of how emergency animal rescue services began. Definitely worth reading: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...glance&s=books I am not ignoring the incredible needs of people affected by this disaster, although I haven't been posting about it to this newsgroup. I made my own monetary donation through the American Red Cross Relief Fund. In fact, I received a call from our church just as I started typing this. We have a number of evacuees here and several shelters. They asked us to take any bedding, pillows, etc. that we could spare *right now* because a new group will arrive this evening. So, I'm on my way to gather some items and take them to the church that has been designated as an area to drop them off. MaryL |

Thank God.
I've been unable to read any of the postings regarding this, afraid it would make me fall apart. I finally had the courage to open this one, and it's blessed news.

tech) in TX just headed to NO with a group of Vets and techs that she works with to assist with rescued animals. W "MaryL" -OUT-THE-LITTER wrote in message news:iDqSe.4796$Ix4.3104@okepread03...

I myself would never donate to the Red Cross as I don't trust their
organization. I did however donate to Alley Cat Allies Compassion Fund which will help out the animal rescue organizations affected by the Hurricanes. There were feral cats near one of the levy breaks so we hope they'll be rescued though the worst is possible. They also have a working relationship with Noah's Wish.

This seems to be one of the few bright spots in that horrible tragedy. http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/science...oos/index.html MaryL |
