[Hushpuppie]

I love my pets and if I had to evacuate, my pets would go too. Of course, I have a car and could take them. I know some of these people don't have that luxury. I just made a donation to the Humane Society. They go in and rescue animals that were left behind. At times like this we've got to think about them too. I hope other pet lovers will do the same.

Admonished to put "humans first" I use the argument that we humans are responsible to rescue and take care of creatures that we have domesticated, chained, caged, fenced, caused dependency on us for food and otherwise restricted from instinctively fleeing natural disasters.

We are the creatures' keepers.
