courtnek Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 from the news: "At the Galveston Community Center, where 1,500 evacuees had been put on school buses to points inland, another lesson from Katrina was put into practice: To overcome the reluctance of people to evacuate without their pets, they were allowed to bring them along in crates." "It was quite a sight," said Mayor Lyda Ann Thomas. "We were able to put people on with their dog crates, their cat crates, their shopping carts. It went very well." amen.
