Disaster Relief Fund - 2005

Disaster Relief Fund - 2005: "
Yes! I want to help animals affected by Hurricane Katrina and other disasters by supporting The Humane Society of the United States' (HSUS) Disaster Relief Fund.
LAST UPDATED: Wednesday, September 14, 2005; 1:40 p.m.
The HSUS is leading a massive relief effort to rescue animals and assist their caregivers in the disaster areas. Our highly trained Disaster Animal Response Teams are working around the clock in New Orleans and Mississippi. We now have more than 300 people on the ground doing search-and-rescue and staffing temporary shelters, and have rescued thousands of animals from New Orleans and other areas - with many more still stranded and needing our help."

This will be my last (I think) post concerning the relief effort for the animals affected by Katrina.

But many elderly people face the heartbreak of losing their beloved companions because they are unable to care for them. "


Nice article about how to help the Elderly and their Pets

Howdy Everyone

As I promised in an earlier post, I did setup a email address just for the blog. If everyone would please use this address from now on, it realy would make things a lot easier on this end. No need to re-submit what was already sent, I have it all saved.

And the New Address is: petnews4catsdogs@gmail.com

That should do it for this time around. We still would like to hear from you about the website.
