Perhaps the organization most in need will be the Louisiana SPCA. It's likely their building has been destroyed - though this is unconfirmed. Their website has not been updated; their New Orleans address and phone no longer exist. It's unclear how to help them today. But at some juncture, there will be directives available through their website: <http://www.la-spca.org/>
www.la-spca.org/. Other affected city shelters will require help as well. A Mobile, AL shelter site is at <http://www.mobilespca.org/>
