Tell President Bush to Include Animals in Disaster Response
The total number of casualties caused by Hurricane Katrina is still unknown, and as the body count climbs, concerned citizens can't help but ask, "What went wrong?" Thousands of animals have perished in Katrina's wake because animal protection agents were forced to sit idly by, waiting for permission from authorities to enter flooded areas. In a tragic series of events, the U.S. government has failed animals in the Gulf states miserably, going so far as to order some people to abandon their animals under threat of arrest and even violence.
We must learn from this failure and work to ensure that such horrors never recur. Use the form below to sign our petition and send a message to the President demanding that he make better plans for animals' lives a priority of his investigation into Hurricane Katrina
