Shelter and Vet Services Needed for Hurricane Katrina's Equine Refugees Place Your Facility on the USEF Hurricane Equine Relief List (Lexington, KY) - As Americans view the newscasts of the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina it is clear that both humans and animals require immediate emergency relief from not only official agencies but from the generosity of individuals. If you have a facility or pasture which you can offer to house refugee horses and ponies, victims of Hurricane Katrina, please email your name, address, phone number and email address to: [EMAIL PROTECTED], or at 859-225-6993, (please email if at all possible as we expect a heavy load of calls.) If you can volunteer veterinary services please submit your contact information. The USEF is posting a listing by state of these facilities and services for horses and ponies on our website. The list will be accessed by going to http://www.usef.org, on the right side of the homepage click on Hurricane Katrina Equine Relief. It is expected to be operational by tonight, August 31st. We urge the participation of anyone who has the space, licensed veterinary expertise and tenderness of heart to help these equine refugees.
