Pets Evacuated from Louisiana Find a New Leash on Life in Florida<br />

Each person and each animal has a unique story.<br />

Because of your support, we are here to help those<br />

in need.<br />

South Florida was extremely fortunate to not have<br />

been affected by hurricanes in <strong>2021</strong>. Other states were<br />

not so fortunate. In September, Hurricane Ida ripped<br />

through the state of Louisiana and Mississippi causing<br />

destruction and lengthy power outages.<br />

Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League and other<br />

local animal rescue organizations had to step in to<br />

help! A rescue mission, coordinated by the Florida<br />

Association of Animal Welfare Organization, was<br />

planned to transfer 270 dogs and cats from the<br />

devastated area to Orlando. From there, a dozen<br />

animal rescue organizations transferred these<br />

homeless pets to various Florida shelters…including<br />

Peggy Adams.<br />

Following safety and medical protocols, all the<br />

animals were placed under quarantine for two weeks.<br />

Once they were cleared for adoption, they were<br />

placed in our adoption program. While most of them<br />

have found their loving forever homes, some are still<br />

waiting for their new families to come adopt them.<br />

Because of YOU, we are there for those animals in<br />

need…such as those affected by Hurricane Ida. Your<br />

support allows us to have them transferred, provide<br />

them with the care they need and ultimately…find<br />

them the loving homes they so deserve.<br />
