Everyone is busy getting ready for the holidays but the dogs and cats at Roicy Duhon Animal Control (LACC) are very patiently waiting and hoping not to be left behind.
There are many new dogs dumped like trash in the outside holding pen. These dogs and cats were once loyal family members and deserve so much better.
Please don't forget them.
Lots of cats and some great kittens including the little black kitten that has been held over many times. New cats include a gorgeous young Dilute Calico kitten, 3 green-eyed orange and white kittens, a pretty male Siamese mix, a gray and white Tuxedo, and a Tabby and white with very cool and unusual facial markings.

Poor Max (a Malinois mix) was adopted as a puppy from Roicy only to be dumped AGAIN as he got to be a young adult. Many small dogs including Terrier mixes, Pug, Chi, and Doxie mixes, an itty bitty Rat Terrier, a female Doberman that has recently had pups, a gorgeous young German Shepherd, Heeler mix, and cute wirehair Terrier.

Please look at the photos and see if you can make room for just one. To make sure that these great pets are safe, please come to the shelter before 5 PM on Thursday, Dec. 6, 2007. Thank you for giving these dogs and cats a second chance.

Please note: The animals in this video are in the euthanizing facility of Lafayette Animal Control. The Acadiana Humane Society and My Cat Ranch are a no-kill animal rescue. We do not have the space or the funds to save all of these animals ourselves. We post this video, and do whatever else we can, to raise awareness of the plight of these animals. Please, if you are local, do what you can to help save just one of these precious souls! If you are not local, please find out how you can help save a life in your own community, or help support the no-kill rescues who can help these forgotten children.  less

The holidays are a VERY slow time for the animals wait and wait but not a lot of people are coming to see them. Consider giving the gift of life and adopt an animal over the holiday season. Roicy is closed Thurs-Friday, but OPEN Saturday from 10-2. Bring your family and come see the many faces of those hoping for a new home for Thanksgiving.

On the cat side, a very special plea for Pricilla, a gorgeous Tortie with a sleek black coat and chocolate spots. She loves people and for some reason Torties do not seem to get adopted easily but I don't understsand why. She is such a good girl waits patiently and is so loving and hopeful but she has been continues to be overlooked.

Several very nice adults that have been held over, 4 held over kittens including 2 Tabbys and 2 black kittens. There are 4 new owner surrendered Siamese kittens that are darling with pretty blue eyes.

On the dog side, a special plea for Tyler, a darling little Terrier mix that is a little shy but sweet as can be. There are donations of $200 to the 501(c)3 that will rescue him. McDoogle is a character and a great dog that we think is a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon. New dogs include a super super sweet JRT; a pair of owner surrendered Lab babies (one Yellow one Black); a happy Aussie girl; a tan Terrier mix; Basset mix, and black wirehaired Terrier mix. Lastly, there is Max, a Shep mix adopted as a puppy and now an adolescent. Maybe he got too big for his family? Maybe they just didn't care. Sadly for him, he was dumped right before Thanksgiving.

Please give these wonderful dogs and cats something to be thankful for this Thanksgiving and help Save a Life.

The cats are definitely in need right now as there seem to be no cat adoptions of late. If you have ever thought that you'd like to add a cat to your brood, there are some wonderful cats and kittens that would love be yours. Tiger is a petite Torbie girl with lemon shaped golden eyes. She has pretty shades of orange speckled into her Tabby like coat and best of all is she is very friendly and people oriented. Sweet Priscilla is a darker colored Tortoiseshell and looks like she has chocolate chips sprinkled in her coat. She is a very friendly cat too just like Tiger but sadly these two have both been passed over.

Some great new cats this week... the super size Clouseau is a big Tuxedo boy; Licorice is a very loving male black cat that was clearly owned by someone as all he wants to do is be with you and rub your hand. He is an extra friendly boy that must have a sad story to have ended up someplace other than his home as you can tell he was dearly loved. Pepper has gorgeous gold eyes and a white coat with pretty brown markings on his head and back. They gray and white Tuxedo is so loving he laid his head in the volunteers head as she tried to take his photo. If it is a kitten you want, there are some darling baby Tabby babies and 2 wee black kittens just waiting for the perfect home. Be sure to come get your pick of the litter!

There were a few adoptions of pups but almost nothing for adults. How could anyone pass up Daisy? She is a darling little Rat Terrier with a face that will melt your heart. She is young but seems to have had some training along the way. Brandy is a Plott Hound likely that was meant for hunting. She probably liked people more than hunting which was not good for her so now she is rewarded with looking for a new home. She is a happy go lucky girl that hopes not to be passed over for smaller dogs again. Tyler is a compact lil guy that looks like a shrunken Shepherd mix with the most soulful eyes. Sam and Zeke are both Catahoula mixes and are very loving and nice dogs. Houlas are the state dog of Louisiana and are known for their intelligence and athletic ability. EmmyLou is a Border Terrier mix but and would make a great dog for a family or single that would like a small and loving companion. Barney is a "so ugly I'm cute" little black dog with brown around his neck. He is a definite Heinz 57 but I think he got the best of everything. He has heart and soul and little mixed breeds make the best and most loving and loyal companions. Please give each of these hold overs another look and some hope.

New dogs include 2 small (what we believe to be) Affenpincher Yorkie mixes. They are likely brothers and have unique wirey fur that sticks up all around their faces. Jet is an owner surrender with beautiful brown eyes just asking for a chance to come home with you. Little Pearl looks like she must have lost her way and no one bothered to claim her. She is not a youngster but sweet and seemingly well cared for but sad not to be home. Little Lexis a a small Spaniel mix that cocked her head at the camera in question... what a sweet little girl. Patti and Missy are 2 sisters that were sadly dumped in the outside holding pen. They are Cattle Dog / Terrier mixes and are a great size with personalities that will win you over as soon as you meet them.

The animals keep coming in and we continue to help. But, we couldn't do it without the help of so many like you that help us spread the word for them.

The animals in this video are in the Lafayette Animal Control at 613 Pont Des Mouton Road in Lafayette, Louisiana. There are many animal rescue volunteers with various non-kill rescue groups who do their   more...best to save these poor souls who find themselves on death row at a euthanizing facility. Their time is very limited. If our rescues had the room and the money, there would be no animals in the Lafayette Animal Control. But, sadly, we can not save them all. We need YOUR help! If you are local and can adopt or foster, please do so! If you are not local, either check out your local animal control or your local non-kill rescue who saves from the pound, to adopt or foster in your area. If you can not adopt or foster, please consider donating to a non-kill rescue that helps save animals in danger at their local animal controls.

Rescue Me by Tokio Hotel

This used to be our secret
Now I'm hiding here alone
Can't help but read our names on the wall
and wash them off the stone
I trusted you in every way
But not enough to make you stay
  more...Turn around
I've lost my ground

Come and rescue me ----- I'm burning
Can't you see ------ Come and resuce me
Only you can set me free ------ Come and resuce me
Rescue me

We lied when we were dreamin'
Our cryin' was just fake
I wish you could deny it
Here and today

My s.o.s. On radio
The only chance to let you know
What I fear

Can you hear
Come and rescue me ----- I'm burning
Can't you see ------ Come and rescue me
Only you can set me free ------- Come and rescue me
Rescue me ----- You and me

The walls are coming closer
My senses fade away
I'm haunted by your shadow
I reach to feel your face

You're not here
Are you here?

Come and rescue me
Rescue me

Come and rescue me ------ I'm burning
Can't you see ------ Come and rescue me
Only you can set me free ------ Come and rescue me
Rescue me  less
