PASADENA, Texas — A tornado brought by Tuesday's storm system destroyed the Pasadena Animal Shelter, displacing dozens of pets.
Officials told KHOU 11's Shern-Min Chow that around 70 animals were taken to the shelter's adoption center next door.
Multiple animal rescue groups showed up to help by bringing crates and getting the animals moved to a different building. Some of those groups took some of the dogs to their own shelters, but officials said there are dozens of animals who still need foster families.
The Houston SPCA took in 27 cats from the Pasadena Animal Shelter. They still have about 40 dogs that need a place to go.
