CAS NEWS
CAS NEWS
In common with other societies Cas is experiencing financial problems due to the current economic climate with income being reduced from donations and our fundraising activities. We do not receive any government funding.
As a result Cas regrets, that for the time being, we are only able to pay for emergency animal treatment. We hope this action will only be for a limited period and that matters will improve during 2011.
In the meantime our vets, Clinica San Fernando will give Cas prices for animals once authorized by us.
We will still be running our Cat Neutering programme. Many urbanisations are using our collecting tins to raise money specifically for their cats. More info on this or to receive a collecting tin call Wendy on 952037095
MARKETS
We are trying to encourage more people to run weekly markets in the small outlying villages. This is proving to be very profitable. If you think you can help phone Sue Anderson 952535416 OR Wendy 952037095.
We currently have stalls at 3 different markets, Nerja, Trapiche and Almunecar. We always need unwanted goods to support these markets. If you have anything to donate then they can be left in the Cas office or collections can be arranged by telephoning Richard on 952037095/659458020.
We also need more people to help at the Nerja Sunday Market. In particular we need a man with a 4x4 and towbar to deliver the trailer by 8.30 am. Early risers! We are trying to organise a rota so it would not be every week. Phone Richard 952037095 or Sheila on 665246387.
LIVING IN THE CAMPO
Please be aware of poison and snares/traps in the Campo. We have had animals horribly injured in the last few weeks. ALWAYS report snares and traps to us. They are illegal and we will pass any info to Suprona the animal division of the Guardia Civil.
FOSTERERS
More fosterers are always needed. We find this better for some animals and it reduces our kennel costs, which we really cannot afford at the moment. A big thank you to all who help us and our kennel owners who are so supportive.
MALAGA AIRPORT RUNS
Many of our animals are homed in Germany and Holland. As a result we need people who would be prepared to transport the dogs to the Airport to catch the prearranged flights. If you could help please call Wendy 952037095 or Simone 619903815 for an informal chat. We need people to go perhaps once a month.
HELPERS
We are always in need for more helpers in a number of areas, so if you have any spare time please make contact. In particular we need more fundraisers to work with our team and people who would be prepared to help with the feeding of the cats at the numerous feeding stations we have. Even if you are only here for few months a year we would appreciate your help. Phone Wendy 952037095 or Mike on 952526312for a chat.

Cas Information
IF YOU FIND A DOG PLEASE get it checked for a microchip. This saves time and returns it to its owner, If it does not have a microchip, please let Cas know, we will then look for a suitable foster place until it is rehomed. We will need digital phographs and all information on the dod. We cannot put a Great Dane in a flat !
PREPARING ANIMALS TO TRAVEL TO THE UK
Please remember it takes 6 MONTHS for cats and dogs to be allowed into the UK. So it is advisable to prepare even if you do not intend to travel soon. The vaccinations are needed to include Rabies, then three weeks later the blood test and the travel date is 123 days after the blood test. The worming etc is done prior to the travel date. There is nothing you can do to shorten the timing, hence many heartbreaks if the pet has to be left behind. Contact your vet for orgcosta involved. Full details on the procedure can be found on the Cas Website www.casnerja.org.
LOST AND FOUND.
We have recently started a lost and found registar. Linda Rane is co-ordinating it. Should you lose or find an animal please call her on 958066153/6286432235 or email her on lindarane@voetsak.freeserve.co.uk.
PROBLEMS WITH FERAL CATS.
Most urbanisations have excess feral cats. To combat this problem we need to get them neutered. The recession has made it impossible for Cas to fund this. Our vet Expedito at Clinica San Fernando in Nerja will give a reduced rate. We would ask you all to take our cans to collect money specifically for the cats on your urbanisation or campo area. This has proved very successful in many areas. We ask one person to be responsible for the cans in your area and deal directly with the vet. Mario in La Vinuela also offers reduced rates for Cas referred animals. People seem happier to give when theu know exactly where the money goes.
Cas would like to wish everyone a haapy new year and thank them for their support
