I just spoke >with her, and received an update on the activities in New Orleans. The state >Vet has advised that they are no longer to accept anymore animals at the >Lamar Dixon Expo center. To combat this recent decision, Jane has found >another location. However, in the last hour, there is a problem with that >center. Jane is desperate for a new location. A farm, barn, warehouse or >other location that can be set up to house rescued animals. The rescue >effort is not done! They are still rescuing about 100 animals from homes >every day. The ones that they are finding dead, did not die from the >hurricane, but are dead from starvation/dehydration. They've been found in >carriers, and curled up on their people's beds. The clock is still ticking! >So please, if you have a source for a location, please respond ASAP. > >As for help, they are still in need of people to come to New Orleans to >perform various task. Yes they still need those who can rescue and feed, but >they also need those who can do shelter work, administration work, check in >animals, drive them to shelters, etc, etc. Lamar Dixon is still housing the >volunteers, just not taking in any animals. Please go down ASAP. New >volunteers are to meet at 9 pm between barns 1&2 for orientation/direction. >They meet again at 5:30 am to get going and to be briefed on the days >activities. Please contact me and I will get a message to Jane. Thanks for >your help! Mark > >P.S. For those who have extensive email list/web sites, please post this as >soon as you can. Thanks! > >P.S.S. The national groups have pulled out of New Orleans as per orders of >the state vet, Jane is operating the rescue efforts on her own with the help >of the volunteers. Please help! > >P.S.S.S. She just called me to advise that they need Vets as well.
