Plane chartered for $50,000 carries 80 pets left homeless by Katrina SAN FRANCISCO - The first major airlift of dogs from the hurricane-battered Gulf Coast left Louisiana on Sunday, carrying about 80 pets to new temporary homes in California. The Continental Airlines flight from Baton Rouge, La., was chartered for about $50,000 by Texas oil tycoon Boone Pickens and his wife, Madeleine, in a movement dubbed “Operation Pet Lift.” Some dogs were placed in cages in the cargo section while others rode in the passenger cabin, where they barked and wagged their tails.

| Awesome!
Anything to help our furry friends! |
| WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Saw this on GMA this morning, too. Wow - what a great thing to do. Makes me wish I were closer so I could help with more than just sending supplies. |
| I didn't want to cry today about the animals...funny how they impact me more than humans. I would do anything if I could be there to help, how horrible the other 120 had to wait. I sure hope they can be reunited.
Did anybody watch Oprah last week, the one guy making sure the animals were not forgotten. He was himslef very very tired, but wasn't gonna leave them. I wish we weren't so far away, I'd help be a foster home for sure. I am glad tho they are getting medical attention and microchips...that will help. |
What a great thing to do....  |
That is such a great story!  I will take back some of my earlier comments on the oil companies!  |
