Animal shelter in Texarkana housing pets for families that are in shelters
http://www.texarkanagazette.com/articles/2005/09/02/local_news/news/news02.txt

For those who cannot afford to stay in a motel, the Texarkana Humane Society, Texarkana Animal Shelter and the Texarkana Office of Emergency Management are setting up an animal shelter on the grounds of the Southwest Center.

This way, evacuees staying at the shelter can have their pets close by.

"We don't want them stressed out even more by not being able to have their animals with them," said Lori Anderson, public relations director for the humane society.

2. Please help
Anyone who can, please give to one of the many organizations working to take care of the animals affected by this disaster.
The Humane Society is one, ASPCA and others.
