OK, I just saw a story on Dateline last night and they interviewed the animal rescue team.

The rescue teams were saying that although they have found some dead animals, they are finding MANY that are still alive! Right now, there are over 1,000 in a temporary shelter waiting to be claimed.

They said that they were very surprised because they didn't expect to find very many alive, but the majority ARE alive.

Re: The Forgotten Victims Of Katrina

The INternation Fund For Animal Welfare gives daily updates on their rescue missions: last week they rescued a 300 lb. pot belly pig (along with other animals, a lovebird, cats and dogs...)

Here's their website:

http://www.ifaw.org/ifaw/general/default.aspx?oid=146382&MSOURCE=NL10201DUS

One of the entries talks about a black male chow swimming in the waters, when the rescue boat approached, he turned and swam away towards a home...the boat followed him. Turns out his mate, a female chow was stuck inside the home. Animals just amaze me.

That is just amazing. And yet people still say animals have no souls.

I hope they are successful in rescuing/reuniting/fostering those pets. Such a horrible thing.

They weren't forgotten to me. I decided to give to the ASPCA instead of the Red Cross.

ETA: I can't IMAGINE what I would have done if I had to leave my dog (well, my mommy's dog) behind.

How awful... I can't stop crying now! I knew I shouldn't have watched it!
