my experience: they where very nice even though i called them at 1:30 in the morning =), they sounded very eager to help. i know the phone line is very hard to get through during the day, but if you call when everyone else is sleeping like i did, it was very easy to get through.
also for your journal - this is the group i emailed, that wrote back willing to help h...@bestfriends.org , they asked the same info, and where very quick to respond. the adress they gave me for sending the pet info to was hurr...@bestfriends.org , and their website is www.bestfriends.org im sure you probably know this info also, but at least this lets you know they are still recieving and responding to pet rescues on this site. if you need any help, feel free to email me anytime, and i'll get back with you as soon as i can.

Cathy

Does this mean they are up and running right now?

Can you tell me something about your experience with them
specifically? I'll post it in the journal.

I've updated the journal to include this information. Thank you.

I'll go ahead and link to to this from the important numbers
page, noting that they are accepting calls.

Thank you.

His name is Mark Gong, photographer from Maryland.

Unfortunately all details about the rescue are in Portuguese :

There is no photo of Oliver yet, but he will arrive in California on Friday. You really want to encourage Mark, he did a good job. Love you all !

Hi,

Can you take a moment to look at the following message from the people who
are caring for the animals who have lost their owners since Katrina?
This group, Animal Rescue New Orleans, has been running feeding station
since then, and has saved thousands of pets' lives. However, they are
finding it hard to keep the feeding stations going, and are looking for
volunteers. If you have a spare couple of hours in your busy life, perhaps
you might think of volunteering to help these pets, who have lost their
owners through no fault of their own.
Message follows:

NOLA animals need people to FEED them

*** URGENT ***

THE STARVING ANIMALS OF HURRICANE KATRINA

NEED YOU NOW

Today in New Orleans, we had ONLY FIVE PEOPLE to feed the THOUSANDS of
Katrina animals who remain on the streets. These animals are trying to stay
alive long enough for their people to return or to be rescued.

Animal Rescue New Orleans: www.animalrescueneworleans.com has mapped OVER
2,800 Food/Water locations that need to be refilled !! MOST Food/Water
stations are not refilled for over a WEEK because we don't have enough
people to feed the animals.

It is desperate down here. The animals are starving again. Two more
emaciated dogs came in.

If you can't go yourself, then help spread the word that we need more
volunteers.

If you go down to help support ARNO's Food/Water program, don't let ANYTHING
or ANYONE stand in your way. Please don't stay at the shelter --GO OUT AND
FEED THE ANIMALS THAT HAVE NOT YET BEEN RESCUED. The animals NOT in the
shelter need you MORE than the animals in the shelter. The shelter animals
are fed every day -- but the thousands of animals on the street may eat ONLY
ONCE A WEEK !! The animals need you to go work hard to get them fed -- to
work a 12-14 hour day -- to refill over 100 Food/Water stations a day. We
used to keep them well-fed.
Now we are struggling just to keep them ALIVE.
