Help Pets Hurt by Katrina

AllyOops! · 09-02-2005, 12:35 AM

Thank you SO MUCH Boingonut for your kind, caring and concerned post! I'm a fellow animal lover and honestly, when I saw the devastation of Katrina I thought about all the frightened animals.

I have a Labrador Retriever who is my LIFE. She is my little girl and my best pal. In times like these I look into her big and brown, soulful (and often beggy

) eyes and feel such a surge of overprotection. In all honesty, I'd be lost without her. She protects me & I protect her. We make the bestest team. I know exactly how you feel.

Thank you again, Boingonut!

If you can only donate to one charity please it SHOULD be one that helps people. There are still people starving and dying out there that need your help! That said Hopfully the shelters will start to be more pet friendly in the future since actully it would help more people. Many people stay away from the shelters because they have the leave thier pets to almost certin death so they choose to ride out the storm in thier houses. If they would alow pets in the shelters then less people would have to be rescued or even killed in disasters like this since more people would be in the shelters. Would it have been that hard to designate a section of say the super dome to pet owners? It would take just a little extra effort and it would have saved the lives of people as well as pets, its a win win situation.

I don't know what I would do if I had to abandon my Sandy, I don't know if I would do it or not...I don't even want to think about it.

Damn I'm depressed
