Just got this from a friend:


We have all sent donations, money and goods, to help the people who have been victims of Katrina. BUT there are SO many animals that were taken right out of the arms of their owners and left behind.... please sign this petition - it can't hurt you...and then maybe give a little donation to the Humane Society to help them do their job.

Thanks,
Denise

Mayor Ray Nagin of New Orleans has stopped all animal rescue now that mandatory evacuation has begun. Please sign this petition, and forward it to anyone you can to sign, to make sure animals are included. Animals can survive on this water, but they are going to starve to death and the contaminated water will shortly start to kill them. Many are chained and cannot get food.

Please sign the petition, even here in South Africa we see the visuals on CNN and Sky News. It breaks my heart, they don't understand why they're left behind - neither do I.......please help save them. Humans shouldn't be the only priority - we're the ones responsible for them and now they're dying with each passing moment.
