A 24 ft. mobile vet clinic with staffed veterinarians, registered nurses, and vet techs capable of providing on-site surgeries will be traveling the affected region, along with volunteers to help with the clean up of shelters and provide animal care. We are seeking volunteers to join us between Sept. 10 and Sept 21.

We have several Louisiana veterinarians to staff the mobile unit for the entirety of the 11 days it will be in Louisiana. The Mobile Vet vehicle will travel to the outer parishes to provide whatever assistance that is needed, beginning with Terrebonne parish on Sept. 10th.

Unlike many of the other parishes Terrebonne Parish is a vast area with no gas, no electricity at all, no drinkable water, no sewer. Dogs are tied up and left in homes, a picture from Reuters is below. Animal Control is addressing rescuing of the dogs issue. This effort's purpose is ONLY TO PROVIDE SUPPORT TO THE AUTHORITIES. Anyone who volunteers with this effort will be obliged to operate as support to the needs of the local animal control agency. YOU MUST BE SELF SUFFICIENT. ALL SUPPLIES NEEDED MUST BE BROUGHT, INCLUDING SPARE GASOLINE TANKS AS THERE ARE NO GAS STATIONS FOR OVER 100 MILES IN TERREBONNE. All those coming can either drive with their own vehicles to Terrebonne Parish animal control and rendezvous with us there. Please contact me with your phone number if you can deploy with us. If another hurricane hits, we will on ground to provide relief immediately, but only UNDER THE INSTRUCTIONS OF THE AUTHORITIES.

We need vehicles, vehicles, vehicles, large ones. Cages, dog food, cat food, medicine, feeding bowls, bring gas tanks, tarps, sleeping bags, most of all BRING DRINKABLE WATERPORTABLE GENERATORS ARE NEEDED.
