How To Support Animal Shelters During Hurricane Harvey


Want to help pets displaced by Harvey? Here's what to do -- and what not to do

Protect Animals | Give a Gift - The Humane Society of the United States

I've donated to the HSUS (Humane Society of the United States) many times after natural disasters. They've been going to major disasters for a very long time so are well-organized and efficient at helping animals needing rescue during such times.

Welcome to TWRC Wildlife Center

The facility is currently closed because there's no way to get to it.....the area is completely flooded. They do a lot for wildlife; I've been reading about them on FB. I sent them a donation.

I saw many posts on facebook to smaller rescues in that area that have people coming with boats and cages to rescue. I don't have any names off the top of my head-but there's a public post going around about two guys who are photographed in the boat with 2 dogs and that they will be going out to help people-there are posts following of other rescues that are currently coordinating with them to find homes/fosters/boats/cages/food/water etc.

Wings of Rescue
I donated to Wings of Rescue- here is their facebook page.
They are flying animals in shelters out of state to make room so that displaced pets are able to stay local until being reunited with their owners. It's expensive to keep a plane running this is a man's personal airplane that he uses to cargo the animals.

I also volunteered to foster at least one dog and I have room for reptiles too (not sure if they would be transported but you never know). The out of state shelters are going to need fosters because of the new animals coming in.

Yes, Wings of Rescue are flying pets out to San Diego shelters.... It is in my link.

The ASPCA’s disaster response team is on the ground with search-and-rescue, sheltering and relocation teams ready to assist displaced animals in this historic weather event affecting Texas and Louisiana.

I'm going to donate to the ASPCA. I want to do something and I've been wanting to give to them anyway.

Jackson Galaxy's foundation has partnered with Greater Good. They are working on getting pets both dogs and cats transported to shelters that can keep them longer term.

I just heard through a friend that these are good organizations that need help:

Help Animals- all are excellent. Just go to their websites. Friends for Life is excellent, but they are very well funded.
Brazoria County is located near the coast and is always overlooked.
Texas Litter Control - Cat Sanctuary- total loss. Low-cost spay and neuter clinic.
Forgotten Dogs - amazing. Gotta be a strong person to do what they do.
Rescue Bank, under Greater Good's umbrella is an Animal Food Bank. The largest suppliers of dog/cat food provide Truck loads food to RB & they send on to small no kill rescue gps. All are in great need of $$. Now my add ons:
Lab rescue: lsawl.org - Lone Star Animal Welfare League
Special Pals Shelter - specialpalsshelter.org
Horses: Habitat for Horses -habitatforhorses.org
Bluebonnet Horse Rescue- bluebonnetequine.org .
