Come on folks, we are not asking the world !
– we have got the ball rolling by over 50% – is making up the rest from animal people around the World too much to ask ?
Our Novak really has no luck at all…
We had to bring him back to the vet.. He got sick at the pansion, got high temperature, he didn’t eat for days…
At the moment he is at the vet, in the box?, receiving treatment. Vet agreed that Novak should stay in, and he will spend July in box?
Because of our unpaid debt from June, we have to pay for his treatment, flea and tick protection and his stay, because we don’t know what to do with him and where to put him..
He is a special dog, and he needs some time to adapt to changes..
Please, help us… Novak has no choice right now.. Either street, or this…
There is a third option – adopting…
Please, share and help. Novak depends on you…
More than 40 Euros can be given to this cause – the money will always be used where it is required to help suffering animals – Thank You.

With the summer heat in full swing, life at the shelter seems quite uneventful as most of the kitties are spending their days passed out all over the place, rightfully feeling it’s too hot to even move around. However, it’s not only that their needs remain the same, but now is also the time to start and finish all of the minor repairs at the shelter.

Almost all of the platforms, ladders and wooden wire spools the cats are having so much fun with while playing in the yard need to be replaced now, after being exposed to all kinds of weather over the last few years. Autumn rains and the winter cold have taken their toll and no matter how well these wooden items were protected by paint or stain, they can’t last forever. And our kitties just love them all big time!
The old outdoor fence which became wobbly three years ago is miraculously still holding up, but the posts keep crumbling and deteriorating with every passing day and it’s been ages since we could close the gates properly. It would be fabulous if this summer we could manage to raise the funds to rebuild the brick-made pillars and the small wall between them, clean and polish the old iron fence above and replace the sheet metal part of the gates. It’s got to be done this summer before the rotten posts completely fall apart and the whole fence goes down, that is…

And last but not the least, not by a long shot – the kitties must eat every day and now the time is rapidly coming for the mandatory yearly vaccinations against rabies. The problem is that donations regularly slow down as summer approaches and while we totally understand everyone’s busy planning their vacations, our situation is always unenviable at this time of year. The same thing has been happening forever; when the weather is nice, we’re barely keeping afloat, and when we have enough funds to do something, it’s impossible to work outside due to the weather conditions. We should’ve gotten used to it by now, I guess…

Anyways, if you have a little extra you could spare to help us out please do so! Even the smallest donation means a lot, as they all add up and get us closer to our goal. A three-digit number of lazy, relaxed kitties and a couple of their tired humans will be immeasurably grateful for your vital help!

Take a look at our website and our blog to see who you’re supporting!

Is there any organsiation/person out there in Loznica that can help Sina Fingerhut at the shelter or with communications with the City Mayor.
We knwo corruption is a problem – everwhere. But someone present in Loznica or near would be a great help, as Sina is running a large company and can only come once a month.
Pls advise.
Thanks and regards
Lisa

Details on : SINA FINGERHUT – HUMANITARIAN VET CLINIC – IN LOZNICA
Sina is a young German entrepreneur who wants to help stray animals in Serbia especially as this country is not yet in the EU. She opened a humanitarian vet clinic in Loznica – see her website www.lunj.net – to get pets castrated for free or a very low rate to reduce increase of of unwanted animals.
She has been trying to enter into an Agreement with the local animal shelter in Loznica.
She is feeding the shelter animals, taking care of some medically as far as this is allowed by the Loznica city major but cannot come to an agreement with him. He is “unavailable” no matter what she tries to reach him.
Animals whether healthy, sick, pregnant or injured are crammed into the shelter, get infected there, no fresh water, no food except what Sina and her small team bring in – recently the shelter staff have broken open the quarantine dog cages, removed the cage doors and taken out all animals without saying whereto.
There is no cooperation from the city council of Loznica whatsoever.
DO YOU KNOW ANY LOCAL ORGANISATION – ASSOCIATION – ANIMAL PROTECTORS – ANIMAL RIGHTS PEOPLE – LAWYERS you can put in touch with or name to Sina Fingerhut to help her in her fight for the shelter animals survival.
PLEASE RESPOND TO SINA URGENTLY !!! Thank you !
SAV Comment – If the City Council / Mayor are Always ‘Unavailable’ to discuss the situation, then we at SAV need to go back to our photographic records and show you exactly what the recorded situation In Loznica has been like until now. This is just a selection from our detailed records. No wonder they do not want to talk ! – they should be utterly ashamed of what corruption does. We are presenting this to the world with the hope that suddenly the mayor and City authorities may think differently and suddenly become available to discuss things !!

SAV Comment
We are giving donations to a lot of appeals all the time from our own pockets – we ask for no money on this site; instead that people donate directly to the groups and by pass ourselves. Sadly many people do not bother to give anything, although a lot of very small donations add up to a large amount that often meets the appeals need.
We are a volunteer run organisation – self funding even for this sites upkeep; we do not have loads of cash stored away to help every appeal that goes out.
Sadly, when the required funds are not met; the worst happens. The message in red below is from Lina in her own words. This is the sad reality of some animal ‘welfare’. We try to put appeals out well in advance, as this appeal was no exception. There was very little in the way of support or donations, so now the dogs will be turned back onto the streets probably to be rounded up by the Shinters.
For them there is no hope after all… They are forgotten, rejected … Nobody want to adopt them , nobody want to help them to stay on safe .. After all , they will go to street , right to death…
To donate –
Lina’s Animal Rescue is organisation for animal welfare from Serbia . . We have 23 dogs in small private unfinished shelter, 20 dogs in 2 boarding kennels and 20 kitties in one rescuers home. Funds are desperately needed to pay the boarding kennel fees. We have debt for April 510€ and for May 960€ . We are desperate , those dogs can not go again on the street. The life of street dogs everywhere is difficult, but here in Serbia the dog catchers kill them rather than rescue them.Those dogs urgent need help . Each dog’s boarding fees are 60€ per month ( 40 boarding kennel + 20 food ) .With 20 dogs currently in boarding facilities, the debt is too great to even think about renovating our shelter. They depend only on help from good people. Please share our story and donate , this is URGENT APEL ! Thank you !
