Our hearts are with all the families affected by
recent and upcoming hurricanes.
We are an animal rescue in Southern California, and
as such, our thoughts immediately go to the animals. How are they, are people
able to take them to shelters, are the animals getting fresh food, clean water,
medications, a dry place to sleep? Being from California and the heart of
earthquake territory, we are taught from an early age to "be
prepared" in case of a disaster. In many cases, disaster strikes with no
warning. Wildfires, earthquakes, flash floods, tornadoes, there are any number
of things that can lead to massive power outages, infrastructure loss,
homelessness, an inability to contact friends and loved ones, and a need to be
self reliant until help arrives.
