HI all,
I have forwarded the two notes along to the Humane Society of the US. This is
their contact address.
http://www.hsus.org/contact_us/disaster_services.html
I tried to reach them by phone, but it may have been too late.
Please pass this address along to those wanting to help.
Kathy.
[Moderator's Note: another national group which has a strong history of rescuing
animals when natural disasters occur is UNA EARS
http://www.uan.org/ears/index.html
Please, for now leave the contact addies for those who are in bad situations and
seeking help NOW, and for national animal organizations which are trying to
coordinate with these types of groups to provide the best level of help.
Two organizations which help ferret shelters when they are dealing with unusual
burdens are Support Our Shelters, and the International Ferret Congress' Emergency
Love Fund:
http://www.supportourshelters.org/
and
http://www.ferretcongress.org
but both depend on volunteers so expect some aspects of response to not be
immediate. ]
