animals

I haven't posted anything about Katrina relief because I hardly know where to start, and because a number of other folks seem to have amply covered it.

But one group of links I would like to post is for those agencies who helped and who are continuing to help look after all the animals left behind.

International Fund for Animal Welfare (http://www.ifaw.org/ifaw/general/default.aspx)
American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (http://www.aspca.org/site/PageServer)
Humane Society of the United States (http://www.hsus.org/)
Petfinder (http://www.petfinder.org/)
Washington Animal Rescue League (http://www.warl.org/)

If you want to make a donation to help alleviate or ameliorate the conditions that resulted from this brutal natural event, there are many worthy causes seeking to help the multitude of human victims; but please also consider helping out these groups. They are working hard, but I'm sure they could use more help.

Another good one is
