*************************************
<P>In response to the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina
yesterday, The Humane Society of the United States has launched
a massive relief effort to rescue animals and assist their
caregivers in the disaster areas.
<p>
Even as you read this, our highly-trained Disaster Animal
Response Teams are heading to Mississippi to begin a multi-state
animal rescue and recovery effort. Our 38-foot Disaster Response
Unit and other rescue vehicles affiliated with our teams are
fully stocked and on their way.
Our entire relief effort is funded by donations from people like
you, and we desperately need your support. Please make an
emergency contribution to our Disaster Relief Fund today. Your
tax-deductible gift will be used exclusively for our disaster
animal relief work. Click here to make your gift:

Even at this early stage, Katrina promises to be one of the most
devastating hurricanes on record. Please keep the human and
animal victims in your thoughts, and please consider making an
emergency donation today to help our disaster relief teams save
as many stranded and injured animals as possible. My dedicated
corps of professionals and volunteers sends our gratitude as we
get set to enter the disaster zone.

P.S. As the leader of our on-the-ground disaster relief efforts,
I can tell you first-hand that the difficult and dangerous task
of saving animals' lives in disaster situations is vital not
only to the animals, but to the people who love them, too. Any
support you can provide for our animal relief work is deeply
appreciated. Click here to make your contribution to the Humane
