The Humane Society of the United State's Disaster Animal Response Team is heading to the Gulf Coast region to begin rescuing animals. If you have the means, consider donating to their effort.
Also, close to home, various animal groups around town are getting pet supply donations together and setting up a shelter for animals in Austin -- basically what happens is that people who managed to escape with their pets and get to a Red Cross shelter are not allowed to bring in the pets. Most if not all shelters do not allow pets. So help is needed to take care of these furry little babies until their human companions can get settled. I am trying to find contact information on how to help...I know Animal Trustees of Austin is involved, as is the Greyhound Rescue group.
Check Austin Humane Society to start.
