Emergency Shelter

do you think the actions im going to take are okay?

Question by Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷAMBER ADDICTIONƸ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ™: do you think the actions im going to take are okay?
okay so to make a long story short

here’s what happened

my yard is fenced in and it has about 4 tree’s and it’s not that large, or not to small,

i wen’t in my backyard, and saw one baby chinchilla it was an pink-white one.and one that looked a little older it was a standard gray, so i was like… what are these domesticated chinchilla’s doing in my yard, ( at this point im like my gate is locked, it must have took someone to throw them over the fence). or their good jumper’s.
so i captured them , put them in a box
i already have to female’s , and determined they we’re to in fact female’s, i wasn’t going to put them in the cage with my other’s they could have disease’s , so i noticed a leg band with a number , this was strange to me, i’ve never seen this i called it, and it was a breeder, they both had number’s next to the phone number i told this man i found two chinchilla’s and told him the number’s he told me they belonged to a woman by the name of chesla sanchez , and he told me her address , or he said he could just take them and care for them.
i said no, i asked for the the woman’s number,
at first i was like the address is familiar but the name isn’t
so i called and it turn’s out she’s a woman two blocks from me i advised her i found her chinchilla’s unharmed she said ” you we’re the only neighbor with a safe enough yard so i threw them back there”
i was like ” … what…?”
she goes ” i don’t want them im sick of caring for them i’ve had locy the grey one for 4 months, shes about 6 month’s now and riley for a week now, shes 2 month’s about,”
i said ” why didnt you just bring them to shelter?”
she responded with excuses , and we chatted.
she later brought over a cage
IT WAS DISGUSTING.
i have no idea why someone would put paper as liter
no dust bath and a bowl with water in it and some cherrio’s
as food.
the cage was the size of a cage you would travel in
for 1 chinchilla.
so i’ve already went to pet smart and spent about $ 250.00 in cash on a cage and some toy’s for them
and i have already brought them to the emergency vet,
just encase they have anything
the vet noticed some fur missing and the 2 month old’s ear was bitten up , so he just told me to put neosporion on it and it’s good.
and they had some constipation.

and so i got them their toy’s,cage,dust bath,water bottle, and food dishes.

i bought them a four level cage – and it seemed they we’re amazed she probably never let them out.
their all set up, i’m not rich and i wanted to give them to a shelter but i felt so bad, im kinda tight with money because of all this, but i rent a apartment from my parent’s house they said they’ll give me a break for a few month’s,
so what i think i’m going to do is have the veterinarian testify in court for animal cruelty, and endangering the animal’s they we’re left their to die and she mistreated them while under her care,
I’m also going to call animal control on her.
she claim’s she didn’t want them because they we’re to much work but later in the conversation she states ” i’m starting a rat breeding business”.
so do you think the actions im taking are okay?
any suggestions?
any thing else you would do?
thanks for the awnsers! .

yes, i agree but the police can just get phone records, and record them,

and im very happy that they we’re in my yard because if not they would have died

I would have her sign a paper stating that she is giving you the chinchilla’s before you call anyone so she can not force you to give them back.

There may come a time when you face an emergency or natural disaster and find yourself unable to sleep at your house. These tips for emergency shelter and sleep are designed to help you prepare and gather the supplies needed in case this eventuality should occur to you and your family. Solar blanket really is a must. Folks who venture out into the great outdoors and the camp will be better prepared for their emergency supplies. Yet, in addition to an emergency solar bags, blankets and covers, you will also consider an air mattresses, pop up canopies, flashlights, and other creature comforts and needs. />
solar products not only keep you warm in a pinch, but if you leave your car on a hot day you can use solar blanket to deflect the sun and keep your car cooler by putting it in the window that the sun is directly hitting. In the case of extreme cold, a solar blanket can keep you warm by storing your own body temperature. Just wrap yourself up in the silver blanket and let it almost magical properties keep you warm and toasty. />
Many of the supplies needed for a good emergency shelter and sleeping plans can be folded up, sunken or otherwise stored space efficiently. A good idea is to keep the very least a solar blanket or two and some flashlights in the trunk of your car or truck. You never know when you might need them and they take up very little room. An air mattress and a pump to inflate it can make the difference between a good night’s sleep or tossing and turning on a hard surface like the ground or floor of the emergency shelter’s. />
A good point to remember when considering your emergency shelter and sleeping needs are that you can not predict where you will have to seek shelter. It may be that you’ll find yourself out in nature and things like solar blankets and flashlights and rain gear are particularly important. Pop up privacy tent canopies and deluxe rooms are also available. If you find yourself seeking shelter in an emergency shelter after a natural disaster, you will want pillow and blanket and an air mattress or pop up bed for maximum comfort in your time of distress. Preparing in advance is always the best plan.

Natural Disasters Are Still Disasters

Hello Everyone.  It seems to me like we spend a lot of time preparing for disaster–nuclear war, biological warfare, epidemics, governmental collapse, “end of times” disasters, etc.  I am unsure, however, if we spend enough time preparing for natural disasters–disasters this planet has experienced since its beginning–and disasters that we too, as a race, have experienced.  Things like tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards, earthquakes, tsunamis, wildfires, and other such natural disasters.

I fear that oftentimes we are too focused on what might happen and not what has happened in the past and will most definitely happen again in the future.

The reason I bring this all up is because the area where I live, the greater Raleigh, NC area, experienced severe weather this past Saturday–66 separate tornadoes were counted just in our area in the span of a few hours.  Some people lost their lives, many more experienced injuries and property damage.  The Lowes Home Improvement Store in Sanford, NC was leveled…I mean LEVELED. Driving around the next day and looking at photos online, I realize just how lucky I was.

I think it’s important for us to remember that disasters come in all shapes and sizes.  It’s just as important to prepare for disasters Mother Nature dishes out to us on a pretty routine basis as it is to prepare for chemical or biological warfare.  I know, I know, the thought of a hurricane or blizzard is not as exciting as the thought of chemical warfare of governmental collapse, but survival is survival, and death is death, and death by natural disaster is just as permanent as death by man-made disaster.

The Georgia Homeless in 2008

What is homelessness?

Homelessness is a difficult and complex issue. So much so, that there is even

disagreement over the definition of who is truly homeless and who is not. The

U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) defines someone as

“homeless” if he or she:

resides in an emergency shelter or in transitional/• supportive housing for

homeless persons; or

• resides in a place not meant for human habitation, such as cars, parks, sidewalks,

abandoned buildings, encampments, and dilapidated buildings

The U.S. Department of Education uses an expanded definition that also includes

people who are:

• doubled up with family or friends due to economic condition

• living in motels and hotels for lack of other suitable housing

• migrant workers living in housing not fit for habitation

The State of Georgia, in the Act that created the State Housing Trust Fund for the

Homeless in 1988, defined homelessness as “persons and families who have no access

to or can reasonably be expected not to have access to either traditional or permanent

housing which can be considered safe, sanitary, decent, and affordable.”1

Because of the important variations in the definition of homelessness, this report

primarily uses the more narrow HUD definition, except when otherwise noted.

What is chronic homelessness?

About 25% of the homeless population experience long spells of homelessness or

have had numerous homeless episodes.2 These chronically homeless individuals

use a disproportionate share of public services and are vulnerable to continued

homelessness. HUD considers someone chronically homeless if he or she is

unaccompanied, has a disabling condition and has been homeless continuously for a

year or has had at least four episodes of homelessness in the past three years.3

What is the impact of homelessness?

Homelessness has a profound impact on the individuals and families it affects

including increased health problems, increased mental health problems, difficulty

with maintaining employment, separation of families, and so on. Although we can

sympathize with people who are in difficult straits, it is fair to ask why homelessness

matters to the community at large. Homelessness affects more than just an

individual or family. It affects the whole community in a number of ways. The costs of

homelessness include:

• poor educational attainment and development among homeless children

• uninsured medical costs for a population with a high rate of disability

• public safety costs including police and jail costs for offenses such as

panhandling, loitering, or vagrancy

• sanitation and litter control in parks and public spaces where homeless people

congregate

• high cost of emergency shelters, transitional housing, and supportive services for

individuals and families experiencing homelessness

• high cost of crisis services such as emergency room and ambulance services

and inpatient hospitalization for acute and chronic health conditions as well as

mental health crises

• lost wages and revenue from individuals that would otherwise be able to work if

they had a permanent address

Myth: Homeless people are a fixed       

A February 2006 article in the New Yorker relates the story of Murray Barr, a chronicallyhomeless man

living in Reno, Nevada. Police

Officers Patrick O’Bryan and Steve Johns had numerous interactions with Murray over many years. They began tallying costs such as arrests,

incarcerations, ambulance service, and hospitalizations over a ten-year period.

Officer O’Bryan said, “It cost us one million dollars not to do something about Murray.”

How many people are homeless in Georgia?

The difficulties of counting the homeless in any single community, much less a

large state, have been discussed in detail by both researchers and advocates for the

homeless. This report will not presume to provide a single, definitive, and indisputable

number of persons who are homeless in Georgia. However, it is important to have at

least some understanding of the magnitude and scope of the problem. Fortunately,

a significant amount of data from multiple sources is available to indicate how many

people in the state face the dreadful prospect of no place to live.
