In the aftermath of Hurricane Ian, nearly 90 shelter pets from Florida were airlifted to New Jersey on October 2.
This life-saving airlift transported dogs and cats who were in shelters prior to the storm. It will help make room for an expected influx of homeless or surrendered pets at Florida shelters.
36 dogs and 54 cats were flown to Morristown, New Jersey and received by over a dozen rescue organizations up north, including St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center.
As part of its disaster relief efforts, St. Hubert’s also received a transport of dogs on September 29 from Puerto Rico, which had been battered by Hurricane Fiona.
