As I am sure those of us who live in Florida are only too well aware,
Hurricane Georges is barrelling down upon us - the latest satellite and
radar pictures tell the story very vividly. There is a strong possibility
that it may hit (unless we are lucky) the same area devastated by H. Andrew
just a few years ago. I have been in touch with Animal Control in Central
Florida - where they have a disaster preparedness plan worked out and if
needed it is anticipated that the Volusia County Fairgrounds will once again
receive incoming animals as they did with the fires during the early summer.
The Fairgrounds are located in Deland, Fl just off I.4. Seminole County
Animal Services also has a pet shelter being prepared - with all modern
conveniences at the Sanlando United Methodist Church in Longwood, FL at the
intersection of I.4 and 434 (just north of the Orlando city limits). Their
phone number is 407 339 1966. Debbie Douglas is in charge. I do not know at
this time if Orange County has shelters available in case of need but if
this information becomes available I will post again. If the worst happens
and disaster strikes please ready yourselves to help in any way you can, but
let us all pray that this monstrous storm veers out to the ocean and that
these preparations will not be needed.
Please cross post this information to breed and local lists whose members
may be affected by the path of this storm.
