Protecting Your Pets Starts Now
Published: Monday, May 31, 2010 at 5:20 p.m.
Hurricanes of the past have taught emergency officials a clear lesson: People’s safety is often linked to pets’ safety.
“Owners may fail to evacuate because they cannot take their animals with them, or owners who left their animals behind will later try to reenter the disaster area to rescue them,” says a plan put together by Lafourche Parish government. “By providing shelters for pets, human lives will be saved.”
Preparation now is key to making sure you’re prepared to evacuate your pet in the event of a Category 3 or higher storm, authorities say.
This year, Terrebonne and Lafourche residents who need parish help to evacuate will be going to a shelter in Monroe and will be allowed to bring their pets with them. Once arriving in Monroe, animals will be housed in an agricultural arena next door to the Civic Center, where the people will be housed.
“The general policy will be that pet owners will be allowed to bring their pets, but they must be in a cage or kennel and they must bring their own pet food, water and medications, as well as vaccination records, with them,” said Brennan Matherne, spokesman for Lafourche Parish government. “Once they get to the shelter in Monroe, the owners are responsible for taking care of the pet.”
Smaller pets will ride on the buses along with the people, while the larger ones will be loaded onto another vehicle that will follow, said Valerie Robinson, manager of the Terrebonne animal shelter.
“They can ride on their laps so long as they can fit in a small carrier,” she said.
The shelter is a great place to find a pet. We have puppies and kittens of all sizes. We often have purebred dogs that are turned in or surrendered.
Adoption fees for dogs are $30.00 for males and $35.00 for females.
Adoption fees for cats are $15.00 for males and $25 for females.
If your application is approved you sign a contract stating that you will have the animal spayed or neutered within 30 days of adoption for an animal over 6 months of age. If the animal is a puppy or kitten you have until it is 6 months of age. The shelter is currently providing a certificate for $50.00 off of the spay/neuter procedure.
The shelter does have a "foster" program where the prospective adopters can take the animal home for up to 1 week and see if it fits in with their lifestyle and family. If the animal is a match then the new adopters come into the shelter and do the official adoption paperwork.
Shelter Staff reserves the right to refuse adoption to anyone.

-> Volunteers are needed in LaFourche Parish, Louisiana where MuttShack has a joint MOU with LaFourche Parish,COLAA (the Coalition of Louisiana Animal Advocates), and Humane Society of Louisiana.
La Fourche Parish Animal Shelter was destroyed in recent storms. Animals
need care now, even during cleanup and rebuilding.
The return of residents -- along with area properties and perimeter fencing wrecked in storms -- promises a large influx of rescues and surrenders. Volunteers can help counsel residents and urge them to care for their own animals, as we provide kenneling, crates and food.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED NOW FOR:Shelter care; Animal handlers; Construction experience; Admin (including organizers); Animal adoption and transport coordinators; Animal transport
