Hurricane Sandy Pets Safe In ASPCA’s Hands

November 20, 2012

(ANIMAL RESCUE) NEW YORK — Since its opening over the weekend, dozens of victims of Hurricane Sandy are leaving their pets behind at a 20,000-square-foot emergency boarding center in Ocean Hill, Brooklyn. The shelter, run a team of disaster specialists from the ASPCA, housed 137 animals by Sunday evening and expects to house a few hundred by the end of the week. The center is able to accommodate up to 700 animals at no cost for up to 30 days until their displaced families are able to reclaim them. Thanks to your generous donations to the Global Animal Foundation, the ASPCA is able to provide food, shelter, and medical care to hundreds of animals in need. Read the full story at the link below to learn more about the ASPCA’s grand efforts.

While several animals remain in dire need, Global Animal Foundation continues to accept donations to help animals still affected by Hurricane Sandy. Donate to help animals affected by Hurricane Sandy. Your contribution saves lives. — Global Animal

Donate, Help Hurricane Sandy Pets (PHOTOS)

October 31, 2012

(ANIMAL RESCUE) While the onslaught of Hurricane Sandy continues to impact the lives of millions across the U.S. and Canada, first responders are working around the clock to help citizens and their pets. Though the storm is being described as “one of the most exceptional—and potentially destructive—storms to strike the Northeast in modern history,” animal rescuers remain hopeful that pets will stand a better chance than they did in 2005 during Hurricane Katrina, which left an estimated 250,000 animals stranded and struggling for survival. However, with hundreds of animals still stranded, disaster relief organizations like the Animal Care & Control of NYC, North Shore Animal League America, ASPCA, and the HSUS are doing their best to provide these frightened animals with food, water, and shelter. Global Animal Foundation is collecting donations for animal rescue organizations on the ground in New Jersey and New York that are aiding pets and other animals devastated by the superstorm. Keep reading to see how you can help these animals and see the miraculous photos of Hurricane Sandy animal rescues. — Global Animal

No Dog Left Behind At Bakersfield Fairgrounds

February 10, 2012

(ANIMAL NEWS) — Today the Global Animal Foundation donated $2,000 to The Dog Spot Rescue for the immediate aid of the 35 remaining dogs left at the Kern County Fairgrounds. In January, 180 dogs were rescued from an animal rescuer that turned animal hoarder. Duain Preitz called officials asking for help with around 100 animals after his rescue organization was under threat of eviction. Police arrested Preitz on suspicion of felony animal cruelty after officials found not 100 animals, but a compound full of 215 live animals, most of them dogs, but also including cats, horses, ducks, chickens, and a pig. An undisclosed number of animals were already deceased. — Global Animal
