I saw on the news that a lot of pets were left behind and they be rescue and will go up for adoption . :( It too bad the shelters won't give people time to go get their pets . Animals do take flight when frighten and their owners don't have time to look for their pets.

I don't know where that was but in Charleston they have designated pet-friendly shelters. People had plenty of time to get their pets and take them with them. They've been warned for several days.

I not sure which state this was in , I miss part of the story . I am glad the pets was rescues . I will try to find the story on line .
 
Any pets that are adoptable usually relocate to different shelters if they have to evacuate from shelter in coastal regions.

Any pets that are not adoptable due to health/behavior issues or too dangerous so they may speed up the euthanasia, but if not possible so they have move to other shelter to keep dangerous animals out of public.
 
I'm praying for Reba and other AD members are affected by Hurricane Matthew.
 
Reba, do you live in Charleston? I know you live in the Carolinas but couldnt remember.....The eye is gonna hit Charleston.

My brother's hometown, St. Augustine, seems to be seriously flooded. He is still in Clearwater so I dont know the condition of his home in St. Augustine. Yikes!

They evacuated to Clearwater where his wife's uncle lives. They are staying with him. I hope he has a home to come back to. They just moved to Florida from MD 2 months ago. Geez

For some of the "unadoptable" animals at our animal shelter they went to local "foster" families instead. We have a "no kill" shelter.
 
I know!!! He and his wife went through Irene and Sandy while living in MD (they lived in Annapolis so they were close to the water) and then recent blizzard of 2016 and now this. LOLOLOLOL

Oh, that's totally different. Those were dogs and cats that were already in Charleston animal shelters, that for safety were moved to other shelters out of state where they can be adopted.

Yeah the CC didn't pick up everything that was said on the news, this been happening a lot while watching about the hurricane and I missed the first part the story .
 
Stay safe REba and TCS....gonna be a rough night! When Irene blew through here , it hit overnight and it was SCARY all night with the winds howling and trees bending and not knowing if our roof would blow off. We slept in the basement all night because water was coming through the roof on the 3rd floor in our bedroom and bathroom. You are in for a long haul tonight....
