ABOUT THE BOOK:
When disaster strikes, who saves the animals?
The wrath of nature in the form of fire, flood, hurricane, or earthquake
takes an enormous toll on animals as well as people. But, while there
has
long been help to save humans, there wasn't anyone who focused on helping
the
animals. This is why EARS - Emergency Animal Rescue Service - came
into
being. Inside are the real-life stories of EARS volunteers, and how
their
efforts have saved countless animals from certain death. You will read
about
the touching reunions of pet owners with the cherished pets they feared were
dead. You will appreciate the wonderful service that EARS and its thousands
of volunteers provide to all of us with their rescue efforts. Most
of all
these stories will make you laugh, cry, and marvel at the deep connection
humans and animals share.
For those who love animals comes this riveting account of an extraordinary,
dedicated team of more than 3,500 trained volunteers. EARS (Emergency
Animal
Rescue Service) takes on the task that the Red Cross and other human-focused
organizations simply can't: helping animals survive natural and man-made
disasters. You will be moved by the courageous, poignant, and at times
humorous stories, including:
* The desperate search by a 14-year-old girl to locate her missing cats
* Libby, the dog who was rescued from Texas oil fields and is now the
official taste-tester at a dog bakery in California
* How a hoist saved a cow from raging Texas floodwaters
* The resourceful skunk who found his safe haven in a portable toilet
* How Bumpus, the fantastic, fearless feline, survived disfiguring burns
and
became a hero
* Plus many more!
These and other stories are sure to inspire and thrill as well as make you
appreciate the wonderful bond that exists between animals and the special
people who care enough to save them.
