Subject: URGENT: Dogs-Cats to die in St. Martinville, LA
Permission to cross post
Hi all,
Please don't forget the pets from the St. Martin Parish Animal Control,
in St. Martinville, Louisiana. These beautiful pets' lives are in danger.
If you can't see the list and pictures pasted in this message, please go to
http://www.petfinder.com/pet.cgi?action=1&pet.Shelterid=LA168&preview=1
This is a high kill facility and these pets could be euthanized on Feb. 19.
Many pets get pulled thanks to all the people crossposting and to animal welfare groups getting them out of the pound. Thanks to all of you!
If your group pulls a dog (sorry it does not work for cats)
from the pound, please let me know and give me your
website address or some info on how to donate to you.
The reason is because in DogsInDanger.com
where the dogs are also listed, I can enter additional info
once a pet's status is changed to adopted/rescued. If I
mention your group, you may occasionally get a donation
towards that pet's care from relieved dog lovers.
Note that by the time you receive this e-mail, there are probably more
pets - cats and dogs - not in this list. It does not hurt to ask the staff what
other pets they have...
