All of us at IAR are distressed and concerned about the suffering of survivors following the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina. Our thoughts are with the human and animal victims.
We have immediately set the wheels in motion to send emergency funding to rescue teams on the ground battling to save stranded animals that people have have been forced to leave behind. We will keep you updated as to how your kind donations are being used to help animals in distress.
For many people companion animals are part of the family and having to leave them behind in a crisis of this scale is heart rending for them.
