Michael Homan tried to ride out the storm with his two dogs, and found out it was a bit more than he'd bargained for. When some guys in an airboat showed up offering to help him evacuate his second-story house, they promised that the situation for pet owners had changed and he would be allowed to keep his dogs, and that they would take him to Baton Rouge, where he could get further transportation. Instead, they took him to a hellish refugee camp and locked him in with 20,000 people. Officials were walking around confiscating pets, so he teamed up with two other people and made a daring escape and an extraordinary 30-wile walk to the nearest town. Read it for yourself.
