Help protect animals affected by Gustav

Animal Search-and-Rescue Teams Rush to Baton Rouge

American Humane's Red Star Animal Emergency ServicesTM unit needs caring donors like you now more than ever.

Our team is hard at work assisting animals in the aftermath of Hurricane Gustav.

Today, the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry asked American Humane, along with the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW), to assemble search-and-rescue teams in Baton Rouge. We are on our way now. In the tragic event that any animals were trapped, injured or abandoned in the storm, our highly trained rescuers will act fast.

'Mega Shelter' in Shreveport a Success

In addition, American Humane is in Shreveport, La., sheltering more than 1,000 animals that evacuated with their families. We deployed to Louisiana last Friday to help care for pets when residents left coastal areas ahead of the storm.

As part of a team composed of IFAW, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Noah's Wish and the Humane Society of the United States, we have been responsible for setting up and operating a successful "mega shelter." Thanks to donors like you who have already contributed, all of the animals we've received at the shelter have been safely and comfortably accommodated.

If you haven't yet donated, or would like to give more, please act now to help American Humane continue our vital work in Louisiana and prepare for whatever this year's hurricane season may bring next. Meteorologists are currently tracking Hurricanes Hannah and Ike, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has estimated that activity this season will likely be "above normal."

American Humane is determined to be ready for anything -- but we need your donation to help keep innocent animals safe in what could be a particularly bad hurricane season.
