'ANIMALS SHARE WITH US THE PRIVILEGE OF HAVING A SOUL' ~ Pythagoras

I left the UK and came to live in this beautiful part of Greece with two cats in 2005. Never did I think that animal welfare/rescuing would take over all other planned activities. The plight of these helpless innocent souls is heartbreaking.

Abandoned puppies

Yesterday my husband was contacted about 6 puppies that had been abandoned on the Bisti peninsula in Ermioni.  Why do certain Greeks continue these terrible practices? Why don't they believe in having their animals sterilized or neutered? It is heartbreaking finding strays in this situation and not being able to help them. Sadly we don't have land to offer, so a couple of telephone numbers were given. It was the same old story, no one available, the local charity full etc.  But what is the local charity full with?  Anyway this morning these 6 little puppies had vanished.  Upon investigation, it was identified that they were rescued and are going to Germany on Wednesday to start their new life.  They are so lucky and we are so pleased.  But the person who rescued them, refused to take the little 2 that were found by a passer by in some bins.  Instead they were euthanized!!!!!! They deserved to live and I cannot forgive or forget.  It is with this, that it is so important for me to raise funds, to buy land and build a shelter for the plight of GreekSTRAYS. Today we learnt that no-one rescued the poor abandoned puppies from the Bisti peninsula. They vanished overnight!!!!  I hope that some kind animal lover found them.  It is unbearable to think otherwise.
