HELP TODAY

As many of you know, severe tornados and flooding have devastated communities across the Southeast. Homes have been reduced to rubble, streets transformed into flowing rivers, hundreds have lost their lives—and the water continues to rise.
Families across the storm-ravaged states are being forced from their homes—leaving thousands of beloved pets with nowhere to turn.



We see entire communities flooded—animals are stranded on dog houses, in trees and other small patches of dry space," says Tim Rickey, ASPCA Senior Director of Field Investigations and Response. "For many of these victims, rescue is their only hope for survival."
Our Team is working around the clock to rescue animals from rising flood waters, provide them with temporary housing, transport critical supplies to animal shelters in need—and reunite lost pets with their families. To date, ASPCA staff and volunteers have assisted nearly 7,000 animals in these affected areas.
But the devastation is widespread—and it’s far from over. While we are making a tremendous impact, your support is still needed to help us continue this critical work.
Right now every dollar you give in response to this appeal will go directly to our disaster relief efforts now in the Southern states and when needed in the future.
