Category *five* hurricane? Five?!

There was a made-for-TV movie called, I think, Category Ten, taking advantage of the fact that after Hurricane Katrina everyone had learned what a Category Four hurricane was.
And Queensland getting a category five hurricane now? Oh, jeeze.*
I'm told by friends in Australia that the emergency shelters aren't allowing people to bring their pets. Which is what happened at Katrina and why we had so many abandoned animals. I thought people had just been callous and left their pets behind. I didn't realize they'd been forced to leave them.
Hang in there, Queensland. And remember: George Bush isn't in charge of your emergency services.
* One report I read downgraded it to a Katrina-sized category four.
