Title: Temp. Adopt Hurricane Pets
Post by jcmquix on Sep 8^th, 2005, 10:01pm

Hey..

Here is a web site that you can help the pets that are seperated from their owners.

http://www.petfinder.org/

They say you can Temp. Adopt a pet, until the owners are found...

I would love to do it, but I already have a house full of Rescue Animals...
(4 Big Dogs & 4 Cats)...

God Bless
Charlie

Hey your the one that has that cool as heck pixie-bob cat aren't ya ?? (part bobcat) Those are the COOLEST looking cats !!! Yeah I have a houseful too......5 cats, birds,20 dogs (kennel) and alot of lizards and tank full of crickets (lizard food)......it's a wonderful thing being able to live closer to adopt the pets TILL the owners are found and make an effort to do that for them. That would be aweful to leave them behind and worry and now not be able to get back to them or feed them. I get tore up when I see the pics on tv of them on roofs and in trees and porches alone and confused and alone. (and hungry) I'd get so attached tho. Good deeds done rite Pam

Thanks for the link, Charlie.

Been reading a lot about the pets the past several days.....how awful that must be.. :'(

I read this paragraph from an article on CNN tonight and cried my eyes out..... I cannot imagine being in a place so desperate where I'd have to do what this person did - and it just absolutely breaks my heart.. :(
