Donated. Thanks for the info. My brother-in-law just got his kids on a plane to Chicago from Louisiana. We had to fight with Delta to relax their two dog per plane limit. There were already two dogs on the plane and the kids would not let go of their rat dog. They lost their home and the dog would be all they had left.
At least it's certain that these animals won't be looting or shooting.
I contributed to Noah's ark day before yesterday and also Humane society. I finally received an email from La Humane Society and it really sounds rough. She said a couple of the people who had stayed behind with some animals were really scared for their lives because of the criminals.
Noah's Wish is great.
They train volunteers specifically to respond to disasters and help rescue animals.
They are a common sense animal rescue org.
Other orgs have mobile units en route or on scene with surgical units, veterinarians, vet techs, cages, boats, veterinary supplies and animal food .
The following do tremendous work and any contribution helps.

Thank you ...thank you ... thank you for your post. I really appreciate it. I will send them a donation and ask all of my animal lover friends and relatives to do the same. I know that people are suffering, but so are the poor animals caught in this mess and it's good to know that somebody cares.
Don't forget cats also! Thank you for posting this. I'm sending them money in the morning.
Thank you for the link. I know that humans take precedence, but the separated pets belong to humans who will need them when they can get back to them. For those pets whose owners won't be returning, someone else will need these four-legged buddies for a difficult time ahead, especially those who lost their pets because of the storm. The Salvation Army's servers are busy tonight, which is a very good sign.

How in the world would anyone--even those with subpar IQ's--leave an animal tied up, knowing that high waters are coming in? But they obviously are out there.
By the way, even those taking their dogs and cats with them would have been well-advised to have a little computer chip implanted in their animals. It is extremely tiny and is registered with a large animal rights group; it can be read by machines at shelters and matches the animal with its owner. Both my dogs have it. Gives me peace of mind.
Thank you for the thread. I donated via PayPal.
This a side of any disaster which is not well publicized. The losses are huge, staggering and priceless. Wasn't there a zoo or two in New Orleans? Wonder what happened to those animals.
Donated today.
