I don’t know how this American Govt could allow this to happen to the people and animals. This is like in a 3rd world country. Sickening.
aw this is bad! people should care for the animals they buy!
Haven’t you heard? The government didn’t know what was happening. George Bush was in Crawford giving a birthday party for John McCain.

There’s no excuse for leaving pets behind in a disaster, and the relief groups that ask you not to bring your pets to a shelter should change their tune. Most pet owners consider their pet a part of the family ….
All over the world, there are too many unwanted pets in shelters that are killed, if they don’t find homes. Nobody should ever buy pets, until it’s possible for every shelter pet to find a home, so no shelter pets will be killed. Everyone should ADOPT PETS and save a life that way.
I am white, and American, and I believe they planned it. Racial cleansing. It was a very dangerous area before the storm. All black and very dangerous and very poor. So it was to the gov’ts benefit that the levee “accidentaly” broke and flooded their homes. And incase anyone was planning on coming back, just leave them for a week, with no food, water, bathrooms, ets. And THEN they will really go wherever the bus takes them. BUSH IS A PIG.
Everything destroyed. Houses, cars a lot of people died. Pets interest you;
You are obviously an idiot.
wb7ptr, if “most pet owners” considered their pet a part of the family, those who evacuated would have ALL taken their pets with them, just as they took their kids, husbands, wives, parents. It is SICKENING to be that anyone would leave a pet behind. I have 6 cats, and I take care of a Pitbull when his owner is away. NO WAY WOULD I LEAVE ANY OF THEM BEHIND. NO FUCKING WAY, NOT EVER. THEY DEPEND ON ADULTS, JUST AS INFANTS DO, WHO CANNOT SPEAK OR CALL FOR HELP.
=( poor babies
I lived in Louisiana and the troopers were told arrest anyone who gives you trouble.
Most pets were removed from their owners at evacuation points.
We learned after this to openly lie about having a pet in the car.
To never tell them the truth about anything due to the pets safety.
Why because people lie to each other kill each other and are just horrorific to each other.
Pets are the support many of us rely on during the rough times in our lives.
Hey Folks;
I’m about ready to drop out of a certain relief group over pet issues. They run shelters … then tell people to leave the critters BEHIND. CRAZY
