The organization that is actually taking the donations is the Dr. Walter J. Ernst Jr. Veterinary Memoral Foundation, which is part of the Louisiana Veterinarian Medical Association. They have an online form that you can print out and either mail with your donation, or fax if you are using a credit card:

You can choose to have your donation go directly to help with care for the displaced pets, or you can choose to help veterinarians who have been displaced by the storm and who are volunteering their services at this time (I’m sure some of them have lost their clinics and their homes in the disaster zone).
