Animal Advocates, Mary Cummins Helping Los Angeles Fire Victims

Animal Advocates and its founder Mary Cummins have been helping victims of the January 2025 Los Angeles fires. We were in the Palisades fire evacuation area relocating owned pets that had to evacuate. Some of these people had to evacuate twice because the fire moved. The below pics are from one trip January 14, 2025.

Sunset west was closed at Kenter two blocks from Vice President Kamala Harris' home. 10 fwy west was closed at Lincoln Blvd. National guard, police, fire department, Dept of Transportation, Red Cross and many more people were helping to secure the area and offer aid.

Animal rescue groups are not yet allowed into the areas that have been damaged by the fire. The fire department has to inspect each home first to assess damage, check for bodies, turn off gas, turn off electric, turn off water and assess the safety of the structure. Animal groups are also not allowed in the evacuation zones without full property and animal owner permission and police escort. The purpose is to prevent looters and arsonists. It's also not safe in case the wind picks up and the fire moves quickly. The original fire had winds at 100 mph blowing burning embers over a mile.

Mary Cummins has lived in Los Angeles her entire life. Animal Advocates has experienced many wildfires during that time. Cummins has gone through the FEMA disaster animal response training. Cummins has also worked for HSUS NDART National Disaster Animal Rescue Team. Cummins, Animal Advocates aided EARS in past fires setting up pet evacuation areas and received a Certificate of Appreciation in 2003. Cummins also cared for wildlife and domestic pets injured by many past fires from smoke inhalation, burns, loss of habitat, loss of food and water sources. Huge fires spread by Santa Ana winds happen in Los Angeles, California.

Josias Gonzalez,

I am a real estate appraiser and expert witness with over 30 years of experience in California. I wrote and lobbied to get an amendment to Los Angeles County zoning to allow wildlife rehabilitation in 2006 i.e. Ordinance 2006-0019 amending section 22.08.180 ( http://planning.lacounty.gov/assets/upl/data/ord_drp-wild-animal-ord.pdf ). I wrote and lobbied to change the wildlife policy for the City of Los Angeles so it would comply with Fish & Wildlife regulations in 2004 ( http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20040824005654/en/City-Los-Angeles-Approves-Wildlife-Policy ). I have been a real estate expert for noise and animal legal cases for 30 years. I am familiar with legally acceptable sound levels and planning and zoning issues as they relate to all types of animals including exotic, wildlife, farm or domestic animals.

I am also President of non-profit Animal Advocates in Los Angeles. Animal Advocates rescues ill, injured and orphaned native wildlife for release back to the wild. We have rehabilitated coyotes, bobcats, foxes, raccoons... We have also rehabilitated a wolfdog with guidance and help from Lockwood Animal Rescue Center. We highly recommend their center.

We have worked with Dr. Lorin Lindner, Matthew Simmons and their veterinarian Dr. Jennifer Conrad for over ten years. My volunteers and I have visited the facility quite a few times. Their facility has always been very well maintained, clean and secure.

As a real estate expert I can confirm that their facility does not have a negative impact on the neighbors or neighborhood. I support Lockwood's application for a conditional use permit. I am willing to testify to this at the public meeting for the conditional use permit. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Mary Cummins

President
