Pet Rescue: Bangkok

Yelping terriers, wayward crocodiles, several dozen felines, a hairless poodle and a certified cat lady: While the floods in Bangkok have rendered thousands homeless, volunteers are scouring the city, rescuing--or in some cases, capturing--stranded pets.

"I can't live here any longer," says Tuanjai Chanpeng, standing outside her home in water that reaches up to her chest, "but I'm not leaving without my cats."

In this radio piece for PRI's The World, I spend a day with Bangkok's pet rescue brigade.
