            	<img class='art-main-image' src='http://cloudwp.petage.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/disaster-relief-670x291.png'>                <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Moments after Hurricane Harvey made landfall in August, a collaborative effort of manufacturers, distributors, pet stores, veterinary hospitals and industry associations and organizations joined forces to provide aid and supplies to displaced pets in the affected areas of Texas. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this time of turmoil, several pet industry leaders were not only making major contributions to Harvey victims, they also voiced their support for the outpouring of support they were witnessing.</span></p>
<p><b>Steve King, president of <a href="http://www.pida.org/" target="_blank">PIDA</a>:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> “The devastating floods in the greater Houston area have been top of mind for most of us since Hurricane Harvey made landfall last weekend. PIDA has been part of a group organized by the Pet Leadership Council that is working with local authorities to coordinate the pet industry’s response to the needs of pets and pet owners impacted.”</span></p>
<p><b>Jackson Galaxy, founder of <a href="http://www.jacksongalaxyfoundation.org/" target="_blank">Jackson Galaxy Foundation</a>:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> “We have been working with partners and colleagues all over the country to ensure the animals impacted by Harvey have what they need. I am proud my good friends at Petmate jumped right in and are sending supplies to be distributed to animals displaced and in need. They are supplying not just needed carriers and litter boxes, but are also sending comfort bedding to make these animals feel better. When people and animals are in trouble, the best of humanity comes out.”</span></p>
<p><b>Miranda Lambert, founder of <a href="https://muttnation.com/foundation/" target="_blank">MuttNation Foundation</a></b><span style="font-weight: 400;">: “My foundation, MuttNation Foundation, was invited by the Humane Society of the United States to help provide relief for animals in need. With the help of our team and volunteers, we set out on a three-day mission. Our goal was to transport animals from shelters that were already full before the hurricane to make room for animals displaced during the hurricane. These animals need to stay close to their families so they can be found again. On day one, we rescued 72 dogs from Harris County Shelter. On day two, 62 dogs from Houston Humane Society. On day three, we sent two rigs: one to Baytown animal control facility, where we were able to get 21 dogs; and the other rig returned to Houston Humane Society, where we were able to get 40 dogs and 38 cats. We transported all of our animals to our facilities in Oklahoma where they will then be transported across the United States with our partner shelters to find their forever homes. A huge thank you to all of our MuttNation friends, fans and partners for all the support.”</span></p>
<p><b>Susanne Kogut, executive director of <a href="https://www.petcofoundation.org/" target="_blank">Petco Foundation</a>:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> “The impact of this devastation is beyond anything that we could have imagined. Today&#8217;s focus is on doing everything we can to help save animal lives, and our efforts in the months ahead will be to support the recovery and rebuilding efforts. After the Baton Rouge flooding just about a year ago, we provided more than $500,000 of support. We know the Harvey recovery will require millions based on the massive scope of organizations and animals impacted by this storm and we&#8217;re committed to doing all we can over the long haul.”</span></p>
<p><b>Alice Tillett, CEO of <a href="https://www.petmate.com/" target="_blank">Petmate</a>:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> “With our roots here in Dallas, Texas, we are particularly committed to helping our neighbors, both two-legged and four-legged, to the south. This situation goes to the very heart of who we are as a company and the pet families we serve. We are coordinating an all-out, company-wide effort to provide much needed supplies to shelters and rescue organizations in the Dallas/Forth Worth area. We are in direct contact with the Humane Society of North Texas, SPCA of Texas and Rescue Bank Dallas, to aid in their efforts at housing thousands of displaced pets. We will continue to provide support in any way we can throughout this difficult time.”</span></p>
<p><b>Bob Vetere, president of <a href="http://americanpetproducts.org/" target="_blank">APPA</a> and chairperson of <a href="https://petleadershipcouncil.org/" target="_blank">PLC</a>:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> “The Pet Leadership Council (PLC) was founded just under three years ago, for this very reason: so that we, as a united industry, can work together on issues that affect the health and well-being of companion animals in our country. Each and every one of the Pet Leadership Council members, as well as others in the pet community, are making Houston and surrounding affected areas a priority, and we’re aligning all of our efforts to ensure that we’re all doing so in the most efficient manner.”</span></p>
