[Steppes] Katrina

[Ashia Yother]

I know everyone is focused on the human aspect of things with Katrina, but 
those of you who could open your hearts up for the animals please do.
 Shelters all over Louisiana are asking for foster parents in the DFW area. 
Dogs, cats, chickens, horses, goats, ect....... Please open your homes to 
them to foster until things get settled. They are in need too.
 I personally have offered to shelter a horse and a couple of dogs. Red 
Cross and the SPCA can help guide you to the orginizations that need the 
most help.
 Thanks,
Ashia
