Rachel Riffel has a small dog and a cat, and is also available to take in foster animals from the flood.

SA国际影视传媒淥ur pets are family too. They are loyal and there for us when we need them for a smile or a cuddle. ItSA国际影视传媒檚 really important that we take care of those that canSA国际影视传媒檛 take care of themselves,SA国际影视传媒� said Riffel.

SA国际影视传媒淚 would be devastated if I didnSA国际影视传媒檛 have a place for my pets to go, and I donSA国际影视传媒檛 want anyone who already is going through something really tough to have the added stress of making sure their furry family members have somewhere safe to go too.SA国际影视传媒�

Llyanina Lora does not have animals at the moment as she is living in a small apartment but is open to fostering one or two small ones.

SA国际影视传媒淚 think is important to help with pets because they are part of the family and leave them behind can be painful, so if some of us are able to help with this I think we all should do it,SA国际影视传媒� said Lora.
