 Subject:   Fwd: Pet shelter AVAIL for evacuees in Lafayette,  La.
 Date: Wed,  31 Aug 2005 20:52:23 +0000
 
I don't have time to spend on the internet finding and learning how to
post right now.  Please just let all members know that we have opened
a pet shelter at Blackham Coliseum in Lafayette, right next to the
Cajundome.  Evacuees may bring their pets their for housing.  We have
PLENTY of food, water, crates, cages, bedding and newspaper.  BUT the
owners are responsible for feeding, watering, walking and medicating
their own pets.
 
Interested parties may call Lafayette Parish Animal Control at
337-291-5644 for more information.
 
Also many area vets are accepting animals right now, until they fill up.
Get the Yellow Pages out!
 
Please help me to get this word out.  I've been working non-stop!
THANKS!
