Reunited at Last!!!!

Kristy, the beloved pet of the Clark family from New Orleans had been left behind at the Convention Center in New Orleans when hurricane Katrina swept through. In the rush of trying to get out of New Orleans safely, the Clark family had to leave without their dog, "Kristy" and their cat, "Sadie". Fortunately, for everyone, Kristy survivied hurricane Katrina on her own, and was still alive and living outside the convention center when she was found by a news photographer days later. Gretchen, a Providence Journal news photographer found Kristy, and was given permission to adopt Kristy and transport her back to her home in Massachusetts.

She came with her adopted owner in to Whispering Pines Animal Hospital for a full health check and vaccinations. Kristy was sick with heartworm, hookworm, roundworm, and fleas. Fortunately, she was successfully treated for all of the parasites, and returned to good health. Soon the original owners, the Clark family were found and Kristy was flown down to Carencro, Louisiana to be reunited with her family.

In addition to the happy reunion with their dog, the Clark family was blessed to find that their cat, "Sadie", also survived the category five hurricane. When the Clark family went back to New Orleans to inspect their home two and a half months later,  they found their cat Sadie waiting for them on the porch of  their New Orleans home!!!!
