Most of the more than 200 Central Florida pets left homeless by February's deadly
tornadoes have been reunited with their owners or taken in by new families.For shelter operators who worked around the clock for days to tend to stranded and
injured pets, the task now is to place the 17 dogs and cats remaining from Orange, Osceola and Seminole, the hardest - hit counties.In the days
after the storms, dogs with puppies, cats with litters on the way, even parakeets and guinea pigs were rescued by strangers or turned in by owners who didn't have a place for themselves, let alone their pets.
