Welcome!
These are only some of the pets that became separated from their owners after Hurricane Katrina or Rita. Some were definitely rescued and either adopted out or "lost in the system,"some escaped and are believed to be roaming in their neighborhood, and others fate is uncertain.
If you believe that the pet you adopted or rescued might be a Katrina pet whose owner is missing it, please look through these images, and the images at various sites at the "More Pets" link above. There was much confusion in Katrina/Rita's aftermath and not all pets identified as as "owner surrender" when they were adopted out actually were. Some animals classified as "stray" were actually owned and had become separated from their guardian.

BIKINI HAS BEEN FOUND!DESCRIPTION: Bikini is a 4 year-old very light-colored yellow lab (almost white). She is extremely shy, and has lots of extra neck fur/skin. She weighs about 65 pounds. Her most important distinguishing characteristic is a bubble/benign tumor on the underside of her tail. Her owner says you would have to feel for it, but you will know it if you feel. When she was lost, she was wearing a red collar with her name on it. She has a reddish nose. Her owner says she is very "feminine looking." |
