VOLUNTEER NEEDS/SITUATION:
Tuesday, September 27, 2005
"HSUS is looking to wind down the Gonzales operation."
Fact: There is a measure of truth to this, but it's not by choice. The
property managers want us out of there, and they have waged a campaign of
harassment to drive us out. What's more, we operate under the incident
command structure of the State Veterinarian's Office and meet with the state
team every day. They have asked us to cease intake of animals by September
30, 2005. We are beseeching them to let us continue for a longer period, and
we are cautiously optimistic we'll persuade them to extend our rescue
operations through Lamar Dixon.
In addition, we are working with the Louisiana SPCA to ready their new
operations site. On Saturday, October 1, we expect that facility to be
operational in Algiers (which is within New Orleans).

HSUS/RAVS Disaster Response Schedule Update 9/25/05
The word today is that we will be aiming to demobilize both the Lamar-Dixon
facility and the Hattiesburg, MS facility within the next 1-2 weeks, moving
all of the remaining animals to foster/adoption at various shelters around
the country. As this occurs our volunteer needs will begin to decrease. By
10/5 we should be operating with a just a limited number of shelter and
veterinary staff to process and care for any remaining rescued animals. Of
course, the nature of disaster response work is always unpredictable...so we
may continue to need full staffing for a longer time period than expected.
**Anyone looking for a lost pet is advised to search Lamar-Dixon &
Hattiesburg shelters ASAP. If you know any evacuee(s) you can help transport
to either shelter, do so now.
