Hundreds of animals displaced by wildfires are finding temporary homes in Los Angeles shelters.
Local shelters are experiencing a surge in animals needing temporary homes due to the ongoing wildfires forcing residents to evacuate. Hundreds of animals, including cats, dogs, horses, birds, and tortoises, have been brought to rescue groups across the Los Angeles area. Some animals are staying as temporary boarders while their owners are in evacuation centers or hotels, while others are receiving treatment for burns, singed paws, dehydration, and smoke inhalation.
Animal welfare organizations are working tirelessly to care for these displaced animals, providing them with food, water, shelter, and medical attention. They are also urging pet owners to keep their animals indoors as much as possible and to have an emergency preparedness kit on hand. The outpouring of donations, including hay, blankets, and pet food, has been overwhelming, but shelters are also asking for monetary donations to help meet the growing needs
