CAS HELP NEEDED

CAS HELP NEEDED
The Costa Animal Society is seeking a volunteer who would be prepared to help the President Wendy Thorne in the re homing of the many Dogs & Puppies that come into their care.

Cas has a proven and tested system for finding homes for the animals involving contact with other overseas charities and responding to enquiries from the general public and our website. We also have a network of fosterers who are prepared to look after animals until a home is found.

Most of the work can be done from home via telephone or email (access to a computer is essential) and although time consuming it can be very rewarding.

If you would like to help please contact Wendy on 952037095 or 660271984 for an informal chat.

CAS NEWS UPDATE

Just to keep you all posted!
The last few weeks have been horrendous. We have available at the moment 52 puppies. You can imagine the difficulties we have, nowhere to put them. We are reliant on our fosterers and the goodwill of the people who find them. Please bear with us.

We are managing to find homes but that does not happen overnight. Added to this problem we have the day to day abandonados still coming in. Due to lack of funds we are not kenneling the dogs but again relying on goodwill and our fosterers.
The finnancial situation is still fraught. We have moved most of our dogs from the kennels. Our overseas parners have worked miracles and we are eternally grateful. However everyone is working hard to raise more money. The recession has dried up most of our donations.
We have fourteen dogs to home urgently before June 1st so please look at our website www.casnerja.org Bob is cuurently looking after these dogs-All contact detaila are on the website. We also have a large selection of older dogs. All left behind when their owners left them behind.
Sue is doing an amazing job with the cats. Contact 691706434/952531587. She ie rehoming many kittens and older cats. We also need people to care for the cats and dogs waiting to travel to the UK. Remember it is six months from the date of the rabies blood test before they can travel to the UK. It is best to get an animal prepared even if you think you will never go back to live in the UK. Sometimes fate takes a hand.

We are always wanting more helpers for the Office, Car Boots, and people to transport animals to the airport to catch their flights for their overseas new homes.

Please call me WENDY OR RICHARD ON 952037095 if you can help
