ADOPTION ALERT: Saved From the Storm, Pets Now Need Homes

North Shore Animal League America Seeks Adopters for Homeless Animals Rescued from Hurricane Gustav

79 homeless animals evacuated from high risk Gulf States shelters in the path of Hurricane Gustav are now safe at North Shore Animal League America, and several of the animals are ready for adoption.

The rescued animals include 51 dogs, 14 puppies, and 14 felines. The majority was originally evacuated from hurricane-ravaged areas in Louisiana and was subsequently transported to Alabama's Greater Birmingham Humane Society, who partnered with North Shore Animal League America in this rescue initiative. Those pets, along with some from GBHS, were transported to the Animal League in two of its Mobile Rescue Units, accompanied by five members of the Emergency Response Team.

Since their arrival, the animals have been undergoing medical and behavioral evaluations, vaccinations and, where necessary, spaying and neutering in preparation for their adoptions in loving homes. The animals range in age from 8 weeks to about 4 years with the dogs being mixed-breeds. The 14 felines are all under 8 months.

If you are interested in adopting a pet saved from Hurricane Gustav, please visit the Animal League's adoption center.
