To: The National Humane Organizations

We, the undersigned, urge the national humane organizations to use all the resources and funds that were donated to the hurricane relief effort to ensure that animals still surviving on the streets of the Gulf region are rescued and cared for. This would include:

Providing volunteers to continue rescuing displaced pets still alive on the streets
Providing staging areas to get them to safety
Conducting a national adoption drive for all animals not reclaimed by their families

We also support the plan for humane organizations to join together to invest remaining funds in programs that will radically improve the quality of life for animals in the Gulf Coast region. This plan would include:

Low-cost, high-volume spay/neuter facilities
Neighborhood sheltering and adoption capabilities
Affordable health care for pets of low-income families
A complete end to dog fighting and related animal abuse
