Hurricane Katrina - animal update
Sep. 4th, 2005 03:59 pmAs some of you know, I work for a Humane Society. Sure, I do payroll and accounting but it's still a humane society that still does great work.
As I've been tearing myself apart because of the fact that I am stuck not being able to do much to help out the victims of Katrina apart from just sending money, my queries were answered.
Companion animals (ie dogs, cats, ferrets, etc) that were abandoned, lost, left behind, seperated from family, etc, are being transported to humane societies across the country. The one that I work for is expecting over 100 dogs in the next 24 hours with more to be delivered after that. I'm excited to say that I am part of the work crew helping process these animals through temperment testing, logging the animals in, etc.
I'm so psyched that I'm about to pee my pants (ok, not quite that psyched). I didn't really want to labor on Labor Day but it's going to be nice to do some good work for the victims.
