Local way to help those in need - Tuscaloosa, AL
The Humane Society of West Alabama is assisting victims of the tornado in the Tuscaloosa, AL area. They contacted us asking we help them network. They are in dire need of DRY kitten, adult cat, and puppy food (they currently have none & demand is high). They've gotten large shipments of adult dog and that's mostly what the public is donating also. They pulled all the kittens and a good number of cats from Metro Animal Shelter(local kill shelter) in Tuscaloosa to make room for the storm animals.
The plight of the animals affected by the tornado damage is very reminiscent of Hurricane Katrina – there are efforts being made to rescue lost, injured, hungry displaced animals and hold them in nearby shelters and facilities so that their owners can reclaim them as soon as they’re able. .
- DRY kitten food
- DRY cat food
- DRY puppy food
- Flea/Tick treatments (Front Line- preferred or Advantage- all weights)
- Flea/Tick Shampoo
- Wire crates (collapsible)
- Water/Food bowls
- Cat/Dog Collars
- Cat/Dog leashes
They are also accepting cash or check donations made out to Humane Society of West Alabama.

Sweet darling needs a home...
PLEASE FORWARD: Mickey McScruff, a Lhasa/Schnauzer Mix, also known as known as “Snuggles” is currently looking for a permanent/foster home. He is approximately 2 years old, weighs 12 lbs., is good with other dogs and loves to be held. Mickey had to have a therapeutic groom as it hurt him to walk due to the burrs covering his body. This little fellow is current on all vaccines, neutered, microchipped and eager to find his forever best friend. If you can foster him, please contact Jacob with P.A.W.S., email: jas_bounce@hotmail.comor call him at 504-392-1601.
Kitty Rescue...
A kitty escaped from her parents yesterday... they called in my favorite rescue ranger - Pamela.
The trap is set... stay tuned!
URGENT REQUEST FOR FOSTER(S) FOR TWO DOGS LIVING ON SIDE OF EARHART EXPRESSWAY
From ARNO:
Several weeks back we reported that there were two dogs spotted on highway side of fence on Earhart Expressway heading toward NOLA from Harahan. We did NOT set up a feeding station at that time because we did not want to encourage these dogs to “live” there when we thought it was possible that they had just inadvertently gone through the hole in the fence that one time.
Today, we received a report that the two dogs were spotted again, a little further down on the grass but nevertheless on the same side of the expressway. It would appear that since this is the second report that these dogs are “living” along this stretch and possibly coming and going through fence back into neighborhood side.
ARNO DESPERATELY wants to help these two dogs, if they are opposite sexes, it won’t be long before puppies will be born along the side of this expressway and that would surely be fatal. However, ARNO is at full capacity at our shelter, we cannot even attempt to remove these dogs from the expressway until someone can step up and offer to foster one or both of these dogs for ARNO.
Please, help us help these dogs who are in a very dangerous location. If you would like to help by fostering, please email lisejimmymc@yahoo.com and we will start the process from there.
