Veterinarian Medication for Dog

When talking with a veterinarian about medication for my dog he told me about something related to 9-11 that I had been unaware of. He first told me that in New York City, about 200 lost or homeless animals, mostly dogs and cats, arrive at shelters daily. The CACC facility in Manhattan - one of the largest shelters in the country - takes in about 60,000 animals a year. Because of this there is always a desperate need for families or individuals willing to adopt. Right after the Sept. 11 terrorist attack, though, there were fears that not only would pets be stuck in empty apartments in evacuated areas, but also that the victims of the blast might leave behind large numbers of "orphaned" animals. As a result, animal-welfare groups such as the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) in New York and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) were flooded with calls from volunteers eager to take in needy pets. To their credit animal advocates in the city mobilized quickly after the attack on the World Trade Center to try to remove animals trapped in evacuated apartments. The ASPCA worked with city authorities to allow downtown residents to get through security barricades and into their apartments to rescue their pets. The group brought more than 200 pets out of the empty buildings and almost all have since been reunited with their owners. One concern amongst animal advocates is that there is more that could be done to educate the public about how to deal with animals in a crisis. One of the most important things they say is that pet owners should know, that during a crisis to never just turn animals loose to fend for themselves.
