Helping Animals in Haiti

107 comments Helping Animals in Haiti

With the devastation in Haiti, it’s not just the people who are suffering. Gratefully, the Animal Relief Coalition for Haiti, which is headed by the IFAW, and also Jeff Eyre from the ASPCA, are on the ground to help the animals who were effected.

The reports are sporadic due to the difficult conditions on the ground. When they are able to do so, the ASPCA is sharing reports from the field on their blog. Be sure to  watch the slide show of photos from Haiti. From rescuing puppies living in a wall of a broken building, to caring for animals with injuries, the team is helping return animals to their owners.

It is hard to imagine what the people are going though, losing loved ones both human and animal must be the hardest to bear. It is good to know that there are people who are working to make sure that pets and owners can be helped and reunited.

So far the group has been able to vaccinate 44 dogs, 13 cats, and 7 pigs. They are planning to continue their work in other tent cities with animals. They even plan to help at an equine center.

If you would like to support the animal welfare relief efforts in Haiti, please consider sending donations to IFAW or WSPA.

Its comforting to hear that there are people who realize that humans are not the only ones in need during these difficult times.
