thepetitionsite.com Sign this petition to support The Pets Evacuation and Transportation Standards Act (PETS Act, H.R. 3858), currently in Congress, that will protect pets in federal evacuation plans, and urge officials to save currently stranded pets.

Some Hurricane Katrina victims refused to leave home because they couldn’t take their animals with them, resulting in even more casualties. Furthermore, the Humane Society of the United States believes that while more than 6,000 pets have been saved in Mississippi and Louisiana, tens of thousands more could still be in New Orleans alone. Pressure is still needed to save these animals, and a formal policy is needed to protect pets in future disasters.

Time is running out for animal victims. Sign today!!!
