[NicoMoon]

WE STILL NEED HELP!I will pay the travel cost (airline or gas)for 10 people to get to NewOrleans right away. Animal Control officersor Search and Rescue peopleare best. Ideal people are willing to stay atleast a week and be selfsufficient. Please contact me atJaneGarrison@comcast.net (JaneGarrison@comcast.net) Thanks!Jane Garrison

Self sufficiency guide from Heather Boyson, animal rescue volunteer:

Supplies for you/Search/Rescue/Kennels:

Lots of socks and underwear

Baby powder (for feet and butt)

Shorts, jeans and tanks/t-shirts

GOOD shoes ? tennis/boots- reduces blisters/sore feet

Tent/RV/popup camper (test the tent at home prior to ensure you have all the right equipment and know how)

Air mattress is a PLUS

Towels- take all you can for the animals as well!

Flip flops for shower time

Whatever toiletries- there are 3 port a potties (take extra toilet ppr in case)

Gallon jugs of water (if driving)

Thick gloves

Leashes for dogs

Ice chest full of drinks w/electrolytes (i.e. gator aid, power aid,?.)

Crow bar and sledge hammer (entering homes)

Spray bottles (for cleaning kennels)

Whatever food you like to eat (some hot meals are being delivered, but not every night)

Trash bags (thick ones)

Zip lock sandwich bags (for incoming animals pprwk)

Dr. Bonners Peppermint soap (find it at a health food store) this is

Heather?s famous foot soak solution. (ice water and peppermint soap- soak feet at end of day! Every night!)

Take crates if you have them.

Load up on ice and gas- try to take a spare gas can/full

Sunscreen and a hat

Take a mask- the houses are REALLY moldy

Latex gloves- medium/large

Bottle of hand sanitizer

Flash light and batteries

Cell phone with lots of minutes

Okay, now that you have all that packed and ready to go, be sure you write

"Animal Search and Rescue" on your windows. Have a photo ID, Health Insurance card and list of emergency contacts with you.

If you can score a "catch pole" prior, good!

Load up on carbohydrates and salt, get good and hydrated.

Pack some vitamins and potassium pills.
