GENERAL:

A pet shelter has been opened at Blackham Coliseum in Lafayette, right next to the Cajundome. Evacuees may bring their pets their for housing. They post there is PLENTY of food, water, crates, cages, bedding and newspaper. BUT the owners are responsible for feeding, watering, walking and medicating their own pets. Interested parties may call Lafayette Parish Animal Control. Phone: (337) 291-5644 for more information.

Jennyfer Keohane (Email) who runs a dog rescue in East TX posts:

"If anyone can foster dogs OF ANY BREED please email me or call my rescue number at (903) 825 2925. I have been informed that there is an extreme need for foster homes to take in animals from the La areas. PLEASE HELP. If I have some foster homes to put animals in the East TX area and my organization can take some animals. EVEN IF SOMEONE WOULD DONATE ANOTHER LARGE OUTDOOR KENNEL WE CAN ALSO TAKE ANIMALS IN…I need volunteers to help animals.

"Also.... The Dallas Animal Control is in need of volunteers to answer phones. If you can and live around there please call them. If you do not live in TX and want to help email me and I will get you to the right people."
