As a postscript to this post by Professor Bainbridge, which I agree with entirely, here’s a thought. In the interest of protecting the lives of responders, who sometimes risk life and limb to rescue people who very often ought to have had the sense to get out of town before the storm hit, the ban on pet rescues should actually be strengthened.
That way, pet lovers just might say to themselves: “Gee, I might not care about my own life, or the life of the guy in the helicopter who may have to come rescue me later, but I’ll behave as a self-reliant adult and evacuate… for Fido’s sake.”
