I stayed home during Ivan because I would not leave my animal, and had no funds to stay in a motel. It was very scary a tree about 60 ft. tall fell a couple of feet from my home if it had fell in a different direction it would have killed me. I could hear nails trying to back out of my roof from the force of the wind. By Gods grace I made it through. Thank you so much from providing a place for people like me. My dog has been my faithful companion for 12 years. I could not leave him.

A lot of people look on their pets as part of their family and would not think of leaving them behind if they can't find a safe place for them. there fore they won't leave either.
