[Steppes] Katrina

[Gerita/Carolle Cox]

I just got an email from the LA Humane Society.  Their animals are all
placed, and their director grateful beyond measure.  I haven't heard a
peep from Mississippi, though.

Gerita, 
Who monitors about 6 animal rescue lists.

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
