Dear Cyberbuds, Just want to share the resultant document of information gathered from all over with the great assistance of this list in time of dire need. Once again thankyou for responding!! This document was taken to a disaster clinic in Greensboro NC in October sponsored by the NC League of Municipalities and was very much appreciated by town clerks,mayors, librarians and individuals attending.For all those who actually contributed to charts and websites through years of hard work and research it was sincerely appreciated. Next to my table was the director of The Humane Society of the United States and the American Red Cross. I learned a very valuable piece of information .Some pets were left behind to fend for themselves, the owners thinking they would be there when they returned. Many strays were brought to higher ground in Raleigh. A first time for the removal of animals from their geographical area.The resultant problem became one for the Humane Societies to repatriate pets. A microchip inplant with vital information is cheap insurance on the return of your pet.
