Hi Helen:
We are getting so close to the line now that I am not sleeping at nights. It is pretty draining when you have 163 animals that you are responsible for and no money in the kitty:)
All will be well again once our fundraisers kick in (November and December) but we definitely need help now.
As always, thanks for your help.
One love,
Maureen

Dear Helen
Here is our appeal and thank you again for being so willing to help.
Maureen
“Can you help our animals?
For the first time this year we need your help. For the first time in months, donations have dropped dramatically, and we find ourselves very close to the edge in terms of being able to feed and care for our 163 in-house cats, dogs, one pig (Daisy) and one horse (Baby Girl).
Running an animal sanctuary in the third world is an immense challenge. Keeping it going – in the aftermath of five hurricanes in only four years, and without running water for the past year – leaves me searching for a word that adequately describes the difficulties, but there isn’t one. Suffice it to say it hasn’t been easy.
However, despite the seemingly unending obstacles that we have faced over the past seven years, we have – somehow and with a lot of faith – managed to save, sterilize and re-home hundreds of animals that would otherwise have died along the road side or in the bush, alone, in pain, and forgotten. And we have also been able to offer a happy home to the animals that for one reason or another are not adoptable and will be with us for life.
Financially, up until now, 2010 has been a good year thus far. Our international support base is definitely growing and we are very grateful for that. And, if the past two years are any indicator, our present need for funds will be temporary. Within a couple of months we believe we will be fine again – especially so with two fundraisers planned for October and November, but, we do need your help now.
English-founded and run, The Animal House Jamaica is a registered charity in Jamaica (and has been since May 2003), and a 501(c)(3) in the United States (since November 2008, EIN 98-0550628).
Please help if you can. Our animals are so deserving.
One love from Jamaica.

Executive Director

Things have been happening at EPAR shelter.
This is a dog and cat rescue facility which gets no support or funding from the authorities or government, despite many attempts to have funding as a rescue shelter for stray animals from the streets.
Slavica covers all the costs herself. If you can help with a donation, please go to the end of this post for further information.
A member of the public called about a dog who was in the forest; tied to a tree with wire around his neck.
The injury to his neck caused by the wire.
After the wire had been removed and the dog had been taken back to care at EPAR shelter. You can clearly see the wire which was wrapped around his neck.
Another call was made by people about a dog from the street who had found cover and who was now living in an old garage with no door. You can see her cowering under the old tractor.
These people wanted to call the shinters to catch and take the dog – to kill her;, but then a call was made to EPAR shelter. EPAR arrived and rescued her; she in now living at the EPAR shelter. You can see her here being rescued by Adrijana, one of the EPAR team.
Back at the EPAR shelter, building work is happening; new wood and bags of cement are being purchased to make new corners for the new dog houses.
Because it is very hot in summer and the dogs need plenty of fresh, clean water; new drums are selected ready to be cut down into new large drinking bowls.
When the drums are cut down to size; they make clean new water dishes for all the dogs at EPAR shelter. Below are just a few ready for dogs and the hot days of summer.
And below are a series of pictures of some of the residents at EPAR shelter; dogs which have been saved from the streets and killing by the shinter teams.
Daily costs continue – food, new shelters, drinking dishes, medicines, building materials;
See more recent pictures of the dogs by visiting:
If you would like to give a donation to help the running costs of EPAR shelter, then please make your donation in the following way.
Thank You.
Please use the following for any donations to EPAR shelter:
One of the best and cheapest ways to send money donations internationally is by Western Union.
Transfer costs vary and are worked out simply depending on the amount of the donation – you only pay more if you donate larger quantities.
In most countries donations can be done on line, by telephone, or visiting a local agent.

Subject: FAO Helen; builders needed to help Cyprus Cat Rescue; 16 Aug deadline; please spread the word
Miracle Needed – Urgently
As many of you know we struggle every day here in Cyprus to help as many injured/sick/abandoned cats (and dogs) as we possibly can in our small home with no support from the local charities or government.
This has taken over our whole lives and put a real strain on our daily living with no time or money left for ourselves, but the animals need us and we have to continue to try our best for them. We have given up with the idea to move back to the UK and have been seeking to move into the mountains of Cyprus to give us more garden/land for the animals we rescue, who are now part of our family until new families are found.
We have been able to do a house-swap with an American couple who have the ideal home for us with no close neighbours and a very large garden. We have until the end of August to move into the new home but we have a big, big problem which could now put our rescued animals at risk!
We borrowed a little money from the bank to build a small cattery on the land because when we move with 70 animals we need to enclose them until they settle as they will be scared of the change and will run away or get lost. Also this will help us to help more animals in the future.
After a few estimates we employed a builder but he has let us down big time! He built the shell of the cattery, took half our budget and left. If we do not get this cattery finished within a month we don’t know how we can possibly move to the house with no where to put 70 animals, but we cannot stay in our current home as the new people need to move in. We desperately need help to get this cattery finished quickly within the budget we have left.
We are making a plea to all qualified builders/skillsmen out there who have a heart to help us to help the animals within the budget and timeframe we have (it needs to be completed by 16 August).
Even if you do not live in Cyprus and want to come over to help us we can give you free accommodation at the house and you would have the evenings free to explore Cyprus.
The more builders the quicker it will get finished and the quicker we can move the cats and ourselves to the new house but time is running out and we are so scared what we will do if we cannot get this done, and done quickly.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP US!! All we are trying to do is help the animals of Cyprus. Please see our website at www.cypruscatrescue.co.uk for our story.
Please email us at junemichaelcyprus@yahoo.co.uk or telephone 0035799786043 urgently.
PLEASE PASS THIS MESSAGE TO ANYONE AND EVERYONE AND EVEN THE LOCAL NEWSPAPERS, WE NEED HELP URGENTLY PLEASE DO WHATEVER YOU CAN TO HELP US.
THANK YOU X

New information supplied by Diana:
An update on ‘Mila’, the little dog in Belgrade who had all of her legs cut off.
Please click on the links below for video footage of Mila as she is now.
http://www.b92.net/eng/news/society-article.php?yyyy=2010&mm=06&dd=11&nav_id=67746
http://www.b92.net/eng/news/society-article.php?yyyy=2010&mm=06&dd=01&nav_id=67525
Mila won’t be exposed to “unnecessary surgeries”
BELGRADE — Deputy Secretary for Belgrade Utilities and Housing Services Vladimir Terzin has stated that Mila the dog will not be exposed to unnecessary operations.
“Mila will not be exposed to operations if the issue of her disability can be solved with orthopedic aids,” Terzin said.
The one-year old mixed breed was found in April in Belgrade with all four of her legs cut off by an unknown perpetrator.
The mutilation is treated as a criminal offence under Serbian law.
Now Terzin explained that orthopaedic paws are being considered, which would help the dog walk, and pointed out that police still had not contacted him, “which means that the investigation was still under way”.
The Belgrade Veterinary Institution announced earlier that the dog’s condition had improved and that she was ready to start preparations for a surgery to fit her with prostheses.
The final decision about who, where and if Mila will undergo surgery will be made by an expert committee.
“We’re working on her socialization, (she’s) making contact with people and other dogs so she could lead a normal life once somebody adopts her,” the Belgrade Veterinary Institution Director Bratislav Stanković said.
Mila was transferred to the Belgrade Veterinary Institution on April 26 on Mayor Dragan Đilas’ order.
Mila was admitted to a private veterinary surgery in a very serious condition, since it turned out that beside the leg injuries she also survived a heart attack and developed pneumonia.

Slavica has supplied some new pictures of the dogs who are with her at EPAR shelter, Subotica. The pictures were taken at the end of June 2010.

This way is the best, because in this way tax for money transfer is very low and it is not needed to pay tax to Serbian authorities who have done nothing for dogs, but ask high tax for donations.
Thank You so very much and
