HURRICANE PETS STILL SEEKING THEIR OWNERS.

[egadsbrain]

A group of international volunteers has been working tirelessly to get the animals rescued after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita back to their people. Using any means available, an expired rabies tag, a water-logged collar, sometimes just a few misspelled details, they have been searching the web for phone numbers, scanning maps for addresses, and even enlisting people on the ground to put up posters and knock on doors. Yes, there have been many happy-endings, but many more animals may be adopted out to new homes before their people have had a chance to find them.

Stealth Volunteers (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/stealthvolunteers/) have pooled their resources and bought ad space in the New Orleans Times-Picayune newspaper with listings of many of these pets. An 800 phone number has been secured for people to call if they don't see their pet but are still looking and need help. The ad will run from Friday 12/30 through Sunday 1/1 in the printed paper and longer online.
