Yet another heartbreaking Katrina Story

This article and the accompanying slideshow moved me to pledge some money to the effort to rescue abandoned animals in New Orleans. I know, humans are more important than animals, and we should value human life over their domesticated animals, but this story and the slideshow are absolutely heartbreaking. The photos that got to me were (1) the picture of an emaciated pit bull wandering the street, (2) a picture of an expired dog on the front steps of an apartment, (3) a picture of a dog too frightened to be rescued, (4) a picture of a lab-retriever on top of a car surrounded by toxic water, (5) a picture of a dog waiting near what I presume to be its owner's corpse.

If you can, try to find a couple of bucks to help out with this effort.
