It's all in a day's work. We recognize how important animals are to people.

There is something wholly likeable about most people who write about animals

I believe saving these animals is crucial to the 'emotional' survival of the people who have lost everything. We desperately need everyone's help to buy supplies to find, transport, house, feed, care for and locate the owners of these helpless, starving animals. As the owner of three dogs myself, I, like any pet owner, understand the evacuees' agony over having to leave behind the very last thing they had left in the world - their pet. Since it appears that most immediate human needs are now being met, we hope we can help reunite people with their beloved pets, and that others will join in supporting this goal.

We don't make the animals work. These animals have already had a bad start. Why make them entertain people? Let them play - that's our show. That's our philosophy.

Most people support protection of plants and animals as long as it doesn't affect their use.

People are taking it for granted that [the Negro] ought not to work with his head. And it is so easy for these people among whom we are living to believe this; it flatters and satisfies their self-complacency.
