Our hearts are with the people and pets of Alaska.

🚨Breaking news:

BISSELL Pet Foundation’s (AIM) Executive Director, Eric Thompson, has been requested by the State of Alaska to deploy to the State Emergency Operations Center in support of the State Veterinarian and Mass Care partners following the devastating impacts of Typhoon Halong. The storm displaced hundreds of people and animals, leaving several coastal villages uninhabitable as winter approaches.

AIM will work to bridge communication between governmental and nongovernmental partners, coordinate critical disaster resources, support animal reunification efforts, and assist local shelters as they navigate long-term recovery challenges.

Stay tuned to BISSELL Pet Foundation for updates as this response continues.

My heart and thoughts are with the people and animals impacted by the California wildfires. The animal welfare community in California is strong and resilient. The state disaster plan considers that animals are an important part of families and communities. BPF’s Animal Incident Management™ team Executive Director Eric Thompson is monitoring the situation and collaborating with other national organizations on the next steps. When California requests support, we will be ready.

Partners, friends and donors have contacted me asking what they can do to help. Pasadena Humane is fielding the immediate response. They have taken in over 300 animals from the disaster zone and their veterinary clinic is running 24/7. The biggest need right now is to support them with monetary donations so they can continue their response. When you make your donation, let them know that is for disaster response. In-kind donations, unless specifically requested, are difficult to manage during a disaster of any kind.

Thank you, Pasadena Humane Society. You are a valued partner, and we are here for you. ❤️
