The chapel and a pavilion at Kai Tia Temple, in Krasaeng sub-district of Sam Kok district in Pathum Thani province, has been temporarily turned into a shelter for six buffaloes, a cow, poultry and pigs, after the temple grounds were submerged under a metre of floodwater.

 

The temple’s abbot, Phra Maha Paibul Thitathammo, told Thai PBS reporters that it was necessary to evacuate all the animals to higher ground, where the chapel and a pavilion are located, because floodwater breached the embankment and flooded the temple compound.

 

All the animals were donated to the temple by lay people, so the temple could give them to farmers to be raised.

I wonder whether the Pope would allow livestock into St. Peter's should the Vatican ever flood.

If the Vatican ever flooded the livestock would be the least of their problems.

If it were ever to happen I'm sure that God would notify the Pope in advance to build an ark.  Whether the Pope would choose to save the animals, or save the Church's vast wealth is perhaps debatable.
