Thanks, I have about 400 FB friends from Tuscaloosa, so this should be very helpful. ---

It is working, Zip. If you’ll read the comments under the photos, many are being identified, and family/friends are posting in with addresses and such. 🙂 ---

> [@NinetyWt](#): > > Here also is a page for [found pets](http://www.facebook.com/ALTornadoAnimals). That’s a good reminder of the value of microchipping a pet. A microchip would make it far more likely to be reunited with a pet in a situation like this where a major disaster has occurred and the shelters are overwhelmed with many more animals than usual. I wouldn’t know where to begin in trying to find my generic looking tabby cats if they ended up running off in the chaos after a disaster like this. At least there’s hope if they had been chipped.
