<p>An equine disaster relief fund has sprung into action to help horses and their owners caught up in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey across the Gulf Coast of Texas.<span id="more-95705"></span></p>
<p>The Category 4 hurricane at the weekend has caused catastrophic flooding and put the Houston and surrounding area equine community in a state of distress. Declared a major disaster and weather event, hundreds of horses and livestock have been affected. Some nine trillion gallons of water are estimated to have been dumped on Houston and southeast Texas.</p>
<p>Developed in 2005 during the aftermath of Hurricanes Rita and Katrina, the US Equestrian Federation&#8217;s Equine Disaster Relief Fund was formed to help ensure the safety and well-being of horses during trying times. Since its inception, more than $370,000 has been donated to aid horses across all breeds in disaster-related situations. All money donated to the fund is strictly used to benefit horses and horse owners.</p>
<p>Banding together as a community, emergency rescues, fellow equestrians opening up their barns for shelter and extensive veterinary care has been required over the past several days. As the rain continues to fall, rising flood waters will make extended care for displaced large and small animals an ongoing need.</p>
<p>US Equestrian will be working with the Houston SPCA to support their rescue and rehabilitation efforts through the fund.</p>

<p>Other charities including the Humane Society of the US are working in tandem with local and state government agencies to ensure animals are rescued from their homes and evacuated to safety. HSUS CEO Wayne Pacelle said: “At this stage during Katrina, we had no idea that the animal rescue would stretch on for seven weeks — a race against time in an evacuated city, also flooded to a remarkable degree. Who knows what this crisis will bring, and how long it will endure?”</p><div class='code-block code-block-8 ai-viewport-2 ai-viewport-3' style='margin: 8px 0; clear: both;'>

<p>Encouraging donations to help the horses affected by Hurricane Harvey, US Equestrian CEO Bill Moroney said:  “The outreach and generosity of the equestrian community to support the ongoing emergency assistance in this and future disasters allows us to provide direct financial assistance to the groups involved in the ongoing rescue efforts.”</p>

			<p>We have 5+ acres in Brownwood, TX if anyone is looking for shelter for farm animals. We only have a dog, cats, and chickens so there is plenty of space. All fenced in, full creek and tank. Far enough North that we are not at risk of flooding. Let us know if we can help you!</p>

			<p>I received this from a friend who works at the University of FL. She was speaking to a co-worker after a meeting today who she said she was very willing to house livestock rescues temporarily but had no idea how/who to contact. She does has &#8220;great grass&#8221; and extra pasture if livestock could be brought to North Florida (near Live Oak, FL). She would be willing to take horses, donkeys, or cows. She does not have room for additional dogs (she just adopted a couple of Papillions). She has her own horses so she is aware of what horses need.</p>
<p>She has no contacts in horse rescue so she thought perhaps I might or that I might be able to send her offer to someone else who did. I do not have any contacts either and know north FL is a distance but if there are haulers who have no place for livestock she is ready and willing to be contacted. </p>
<p>I am putting the willing person&#8217;s information in the contact information.  If anyone can send it along maybe someone will need her help.</p>
<p>Her name is Kari Cassel and she is with the University</p>
