CHARLESTON ANIMAL SOCIETY HURRICANE FLORENCE RELIEF CONTINUES
18 cats brought to Charleston Animal Society from devastated North Carolina shelter.

18 cats who were in a shelter in North Carolina when the roof allegedly caved in are now being examined and cared for at Charleston Animal Society.

The Carteret County Animal Shelter is near Morehead City by the Outer Banks. This area received the brunt of Hurricane Florence’s most damaging winds and rain. When the roof to the shelter went, animals were initially taken to Craven County in North Carolina. Saturday, an ASPCA evacuation effort brought 18 of those cats to Charleston Animal Society.

“These cats will now be examined, given all their shots, a spay or neuter and will eventually be available for adoption,” said Charleston Animal Society Senior Director of Anti-Cruelty & Outreach Aldwin Roman.

Since the week before Hurricane Florence hit the Carolinas, Charleston Animal Society has been reaching out to shelters in need across the Carolinas:
· 42 dogs were evacuated by Charleston Animal Society from Grandstrand Humane in Myrtle Beach to Greenville County Animal Care, with the assistance of the Humane Society of the United States.
· A total of 120 animals and counting have been evacuated away from the coast.
· These include dogs, cats, kittens, and rabbits.
· Five abandoned animals were also rescued during the storm.
· Four Charleston Animal Society staff members are in Florence, SC to help set-up the emergency animal shelter organized by State Emergency Management, ASPCA and Red Rover. These animals will be those rescued from flood waters.
· Charleston Animal Society is not alone in its efforts. Other partners included the Humane Society of the United States, ASPCA, Grandstrand Humane Society, Greenville County Animal Care, the SPCA Albreicht Center for Animal Welfare in Aiken, the Humane Society of Charlotte and South Carolina Animal Care & Control Association.

“As we speak, floodwaters continue to rise in the Pee Dee region and Charleston Animal Society is on standby to continue to help as needed,” said Charleston Animal Society CEO Joe Elmore.
During last year's hurricane season, Charleston Animal Society had an unprecedented disaster preparedness response by rescuing and evacuating 750 animals from 7 states, Puerto Rico and The Virgin Islands.
