I question the use of funds.
$50K charther jet to move 80 pets?
$625 per animal.
Even if they could have gotten the 200 they wanted, that would be $250 each.
If you want to be know as a deep thinker (Peak Oil, prices headed higher yet) you should be more careful how you spread your wealth.

SAN FRANCISCO, California (AP) -- The first major airlift of dogs from the hurricane-battered Gulf Coast left Louisiana on Sunday, carrying about 80 pets to new temporary homes in California.
The Continental Airlines flight from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, was chartered for about $50,000 by Texas oil tycoon Boone Pickens and his wife, Madeleine, in a movement dubbed "Operation Pet Lift."
