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.

LOUIELouie is a tan and white intact male pit bull puppy, who is about 8 months old. His owner says he is strawberry blonde with black spots on his back and and all white chest and mostly white face. His body color (tan/red) comes down from his ears just above his eyes and down each cheek and jaw bone, almost like a triangle. His left front leg (starting just above his paw) is white, only about 1/4th the way up his leg. He has cropped ears that stand straight up and a long tail. His nose is pinkish and he has big feet.Louie was definitely rescued and taken to Lamar-Dixon (shelter ID# A006334 or 00011281.) Glenda has identified him on Petfinder (he's wearing a blue collar), but does not know where he went after this. CONTACT INFO: |
