Hurricane Katrina and the Animals

Posted by Eric @ 1:55 AM

Vegan.com: Help Erik Marcus raise money for Noah's Wish to rescue animals affected by Hurricane Katrina

I have been reading a lot of material on the Hurricane's effects, and most of them focus on people. No one animal-related article I've come across really has spurred me to write on the subject, as much as I've wanted to (although this one was pretty decent, and included a photo of dogs being rescued).

But I know many of you have been concerned for the animals affected by this disaster as humans take the priority. I'm glad their are organizations to help fill the gap, and it seems the California organization, Noah's Wish, is taking the most direct action to rescue animals affected by the flood. We know it's a daunting and dangerous task. Please consider helping them, if you haven't already.

Another way to help them out while exploring other ways to help animals in a meaningful way is to take Erik up on his offer, as discussed in his show notes for the latest Erik's Diner podcast:
I will be donating $5.00 to Noah's Wish for every copy of Meat Market purchased by Sunday Sept. 4th, from people using the Amazon.com link to the book on Vegan.com
My thoughts are with all innocent creatures affected by this disaster, regardless of species.
