Rabies Control: Information From World Animal Protection
20th Sep 2015, by AnimalCare
The following information is derived from the World Animal Protection website.
Source: http://www.worldanimalprotec tion.org.uk/about/animal-protection-beliefs
Did you know? 3,000 dogs used to be culled every year in Cali, Colombia for fear of rabies. We persuaded the government to sterilise dogs instead. The number of strays fell by 25%. Dog bites reduced.

20th Sep 2015, by AnimalCare

Aqua Pets Day 2
19th Sep 2015, by AnimalCare
There were slightly more visitors today, being a Saturday.
For us, it was more for education and letting know rescuers what we offer, ie. our neutering aid. Many were unaware of our aid, being a new crowd, so the exposure is good.
Jelissa was our teenage ambassador and volunteer for today.
Mary was with me from the start till we finished and that’s a big help.
Thank you, all.
Tomorrow is the last day…

Puppy diary #2
The puppies are getting more and more confident and curious about everything in their new home. Today they got their first vaccine so they are on their way to a healthy and happy life. They were so sweet and brave so as a reward they got their very own teddy bear. The cat is still not convinced this is the world’s best idea though. Do you have both dogs and cats in your home? Show us your best picture of them together :) <3
