The first of several shipments of pets from the hurricane zone has arrived in Wisconsin.
The Humane Animal Welfare Society (HAWS) of Waukesha County says 81 dogs and 44 cats from the storm-ravaged parts of South Carolina arrived in Milwaukee yesterday.
The animals will be sent to shelters throughout the state in an effort to clear the shelters in South Carolina.
HAWS’ Maggie Tate-Techtmann says the dogs and cats will be available for adoption here soon.
