Thank you so much for the great segment on the animals
that were effected by the WTC disaster. Please acknowledge these other
fine organizations that were instrumental in providing relief for
animals:
Emergency Animal Rescue Service (EARS), a division of United Animal
Nations

A great organization that was coordinating right away to provide
assistance to animals and their families. By working with Center for
Animal Care and Control, and the ASPCA they continue to be a great
support system.
WSPA AMERICAS - The World Society for the Protection of
Animals
http://www.wspa-americas.org/
Responsible for dispatching a large shipment of protective shoes to New
York to protect the paws of rescue dogs who were being injured by glass
shards, twisted metal and other debris at the site.
