“But it’s etxacly the same thing as they demand from us, the volunteers.”Do you really get such many complaints anymore? I think most users are already leaving the sinking ship. Maybe it will not die, but it will be no pleasure to use it anymore. So don’t ask for support, first show you’re worth to be supported!

Beginning to hear of incidents in NC of animals left to weather storms by themselves, chained, outdoor kenneled with a dog house with food and water. Ladies and gentleman, if the storm is strong enough to make YOU leave your home to seek safety, why would any believe a dog house or kennel will safely protect of confine an animal? Cruel confinement should be defined as any confinement which was intentional and known to place the animal at risk of serious injury or possible death; it is animal cruelty. Again, people need to bring the animals with them or evacuate animals to a supervised, known safe location…like a boarding facility or a home of a friend inland, out of the path of the storm.

To Animal Control Officials: Please consider the impact of evacuations and the scope of the disaster itself. I recommend to suspend normal euthanasia schedules /transfers to rescues in safe areas to protect potentially owned animals and the investment already made in the care of healthy, adoptable pets. Owners may experience difficulty returning to the area to claim an animal. Please consider temporary foster policies for owned or special needs animals to make room for found strays that will occur in the wake of a larger scale disaster and prepare for expanding capacity on temporary basis. Euthanasia in anticipation of a coming disaster to increase capacity is a poor management technique; we can do better for our communities than this! Part of what taxpayers pay for and expect is that municipal animal shelters will help their animal until it can be returned home/owner located–please do your best to help make that happen. Be humane, and be your best.

Please cross-reference for comprehensive discussion of pet-centered disaster preparedness. Petfinder.com sponsors disaster recovery teams to enter affected areas once the disaster threat has cleared to support communities with animal issues. Also, please be aware that people willing to help animals around the U.S. blog and track these events and if you need help, reach out online, by SMS text, online by email or using FB. Phone lines may be busy, and cell towers jammed, but texting traffic and internet use a different frequency and can carry more messages at the same time. The person you reach may not be able to help directly, but they can make phone calls you cannot, with your information, and repost results for you to find as you can access networking resources. Remember: take your animals with you when you evacuate; you cannot predict what will happen to your home in the wake of a disaster.

Comment on Washington Monument Might be Tilting after Earthquake by Sean Marshall

Sean Marshall — Wed, 24 Aug 2011 17:27:05 +0000

Wow it seems obvious from the postings here that hatred and lunacy reins supreme and it has nothing to do at all with earthquakes or leaning towers. Perhaps some of you should take a break from the news and internet and get some psychological advice. Seriously our fellow citizens and certainly our President are NOT our enemy. Save that vitriol for our true enemies like those killing our servicemen overseas.
