Is it rumor really? The Humane Society from what I know does practice
euthanasia. Even here in Phoenix during the height of cat and kitten
season
said that unless they can adopt out the many cats and kittens brought into
their shelter that they would euthanize.

The latest from the PAWS Web Site in Chicago said the following.

"The Next PAWS Chicago Katrina Rescue Mission
In approximately two weeks we will be conducting our third and largest
rescue mission to date when the quarantine in Louisiana and Mississippi
are
over. Most animals will be euthanized in these shelters if rescue groups
don't take them out. We will need as many volunteers as possible at that
time. Due to the health risks in these areas, volunteers will need updated
vaccinations."

If you noticed, this one lends support to the fact that unless people come
to get their animals in Gonzales, they would be euthanized to make room
for
others.

One of the problems with this whole thing is the fact that there is some
political involved. Rescue groups seem to be running into a lot of red
tape
from the government. Rescue organizations apparently ran into one excuse
after the other and all they wanted to do was rescue the animals.

How many of these animals are going to be sick and with
symptoms that only manifest themselves 15+ years down
road.

Just because an animal looks fine now doesn't mean
they won't come down with some ailment related
to Katrina 15+ years down the road.

So yeah it may be 15-30 years before we know the true
impact of Katrina.

None of this proves or even suggests that HUSSY is or will be euthanizing
non-human animals rescued from Katrina. It's all specious speculation no
doubt by a group that has some political bone to pick with HUSSY. You
would
think, in the face of such a disaster, everyone could stop this petty
backbiting and focus on rescuing those who still suffer before the clock
runs out

Probably reads something like this: Crossposting: Posting the same article
to more than three newsgroups is prohibited. The article posted must be
on-topic for each group it is posted to.
You posted to
alt.cats,alt.pets.cats,rec.pets.cats,rec.pets.cats.rescue,rec.pets.dogs,rec.pets.dogs.rescue
which last time I took math was more than three groups.

You're the idiot who thought Bengals were a wild breed of cat.
Why don't you get off your stupid, shallow, butt and do something useful
like going to New Orleans and volunteering. You haven't got the nerve you
self-centered, arrogant, pompous ass hole.
