Thanks for the FM, sorry I'm having problems w/ my FM, therefore I couldn't respond to yours.
I keep hearing all these horrible stories about animals being stranded/left for dead..
I hope to hear some happy rescue stories soon.

Re: The Animals need our help too... (Hurricane Katrina)
NSAL has rescued some pets and are going back for more.
Dear Friend,
As a concerned animal lover, I know it is heartbreaking to think about the thousands of stray and displaced dogs, cats, puppies and kittens that are suffering and in life-threatening danger as a result of Hurricane Katrina’s devastating wrath.
Animal shelters in Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia and Alabama have been severely damaged or completely destroyed. That’s why North Shore Animal League America mobilized our Emergency Response Team and dispatched three of our rescue units to help save animals from these hard hit areas.
Our first units have already returned to Long Island with 53 animals: 19 dogs, 16 puppies, 7 cats and 11 kittens. Their stores are heartbreaking and we will make sure our medical and training team works with these animals to get them readjusted as quickly as possible. The League will house, feed and nurture these rescued pets until we find loving families to adopt them.
As you can imagine, the cost of our rescue missions is enormous and unanticipated. Under normal circumstances, care for an individual animal can run upwards of $500. In an emergency situation, medical crash kits used to treat animals cost more than $2,000 each. The cost of fuel for a round trip for one mobile unit is exorbitant and increasing daily as a result of the storm damage.
The impact of this crisis will be felt for months and years to come. Your help today will enable us to continue our rescue missions for as long as there are helpless animals in need. Please donate now.
Sincerely,
|

Re: The Animals need our help too... (Hurricane Katrina)
NSAL is flooded with phone calls. I tried to call this week to volunteer when the mobile unit arrives back from AL and they have not yet returned my phone call. I think I may just go there in person later today to try &see if they are still looking for volunteers.

Me too, it's so upsetting. I made a donation to HSUS for the Katrina pets, but I wish I could do more.
