HHS's trailer leaves
for Western Louisiana
More pictures here
Sgt. Mark Timmers and Deputy Edward Perez, animal cruelty investigators for the Houston Humane Society, packed up their trailer today and headed east to help the pet victims of Hurricane Rita. The Humane Society of West Louisiana in DeRidder, Louisiana reports no electricity or air conditioning, and a pending water shortage, making life miserable for the animals housed there. HHS will pick up the remaining dogs. We'll keep you up to date!

No damage - they're just overwhelmed with animals right now.. pet evacuees and transfers from other shelters in town that had to evacuate. They just needed to make sure all of their ducks were in a row (sorry about the pun!) before they re-opened for business!
