Brick at Little Shelter Animal Rescue & Adoption Center |
After Katrina and seeing all the news coverage of the devastation and dislocation I wanted to do something - anything to help. So I was thrilled when my friend, and co-worker asked if I'd be interested in going to Mississippi to volunteer with the animal rescue efforts. I'm in, just tell me where and when. Hey, I'm a First Responder and this is what I do.
HSUS (Humane Society of the United States) had organized the operation in Hattiesburg, MS. So we mapped out our route and packed our bags. Our co-workers took up a collection to pay for our gas, etc and some even bought supplies to bring to the people down there. We packed up the pick up truck, (and honestly we couldn't have fit one more thing in) and we were off.
The greatest adventure of my life.
