Serbia / England / Thailand: ‘Utata’ (Serbia) now Joins With ‘Twinnsie’ (Thailand) As the Newest Members of Team SAV !
Posted on February 17, 2015 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)
For the last few weeks there has been a lot of thought given here (England) to undertaking a virtual adoption of one of the cats at ‘Felix’ shelter which is run in Serbia by our good friend Danica.
No final choice was made as there are so many appealing faces at the shelter.
Then on Sunday night, more news and photos came through from Danica about some of the cats at the shelter. There was one little lady who immediately grabbed attention; Danica wrote:
Danica Mirkovic Shelter Felix
‘Utata’ is living a happy life at the shelter, but there’s one little thing missing. She needs a virtual “parent” who will perfect her happiness and show her she’s special by choosing to sponsor her, just her. Is it you?
Utata needs a sponsor ! – Utata is about five years old, I found her as a tiny kitten. She was stubborn and had a mind of her own from the beginning. Although she cuddled with me she was generally distrustful towards people, until some time ago when she has suddenly become cuddly and lovable with everyone. She gets along perfectly with other cats.
—–
So, that was it – no more messing around and never making a choice; immediately it was decided that little lady Utata was going to be adopted virtually by SAV. On 16/2 we made immediate contact with Danica and informed of the decision. Today, 17/2; we have (via the Felix Blog site), given Danica our first months money to pay for the adoption of the newest member of the SAV yeam.

Utata now joins little ‘Twinnsie’ at SOI Dogs; who we also sponsor.
You can see more about Twinnsie on one of our fairly recent posts:
https://serbiananimalsvoice.com/2014/12/27/thailand-hello-twinnsie/ – or on the following link you can go direct to the video we had from twinnsie this last Christmas:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29FaTYldzHU&feature=youtu.be
– it has to be those wonderful big furry ears and those very appealing eyes that won Twinnsie over as our SOI Dogs adoption. She is a beautiful little dog with big, furry ears.
We still have to make formal sections for Twinnsie and Utata as part of the team in the ‘About Us’ section on the site; but it will be happening real soon; so keep watching.
Both SOI Dogs (Thailand) and Felix shelter in Serbia have many loving animals who are in urgent need of a sponsor to help them get through their lives, by providing regular food and also by helping to cover any veterinary fees all within the monthly sponsorship cost. Could that sponsor be you ? – Please try and help by adopting an animal – it makes such a huge difference to the teams at the shelters as it provides more financial security for the animals.
Please see the message from John at the SOI Dogs Foundation (Thailand) website – https://www.soidog.org/Default.aspx
or from Danica at Felix Shelter (Serbia) via http://novisadcats.blogspot.com/ – just scroll down until you see ‘cats for virtual adoption’ on the right hand side – http://catshelter-felix.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=53&Itemid=72&lang=en
Then make your choice and start your adoption(s) !
I have a very strong feeling you will be seeing more of both Twinnsie and Utata in the coming months. We welcome them both as the latest members to the SAV team.
We will continue to post regular updates on all the other cats at Felix shelter, as well as the dogs with John and the crew at SOI Dogs in Thailand.
Regards for now – Mark.

Repic Lepic is doing a lot better, he’s still skinny and his coat is dull, but his overall condition is improving and he has finally begun to eat on his own.
Many thanks to all of you that responded to our plea for help and haven’t turned your back on us or more precisely, on him 🙂

Serbia: Repic Lepic is seriously ill. Please Help if You Can Thank You.
Posted on February 10, 2015 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)
Please share and help if you can!
Repic Lepic is seriously ill.
He stopped eating a few days ago, he’s rapidly losing weight, his coat is poor and dull and he looks all shaggy and miserable. When he was taken to the vet, it turned out his body temperature was 35.9 C, he was utterly dehydrated and is suspected to have bronchial pneumonia.
He’s been receiving IV fluids for hours every single day since Thursday and is also being given Longaceph and sulphonamide antibiotics.
His nose was totally stuffed up before treatment and it was necessary to clear out the mucus from his throat and nose – as soon as he began to breathe easier, he already looked much more lively.
Repic endured a horrific ordeal and was forced to live through a nightmare during the first five months of his life. While he was living on the street somebody tried to pull his eye out, so he underwent surgery.
His eye has been saved, but the vision in that right eye is gone forever. A few months later, some male cats raped him and he returned home all bruised and bitten. Quite understandably, he is shy, withdrawn and not people friendly, so he only lets strangers touch him when he is very unwell.
Please, help us provide this beautiful kitty boy with all the medical care he needs!
We couldn’t help him avoid suffering what happened when he was little, but we certainly can help him now!
Anything you’re able to contribute towards his care adds up and means a lot!

Serbia: 8/2/15 – News From Felix Shelter About Fiona – She Is Doing Just Fine !
Posted on February 8, 2015 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)
Above – Fiona now after the surgery
Below – immediately after her paw had to be amputated.
Fiona’s doing great, even though she’s a tripod kitty now 🙂 Before it started snowing, she was cheerfully hopping through the yard, scratching cat posts and having fun as if nothing had changed, but now that everything’s white, cold and wet outside, she’s spending most of her time indoors.
A huge thank you to all of you who contributed towards the costs of her surgery and post operative care, thus enabling this beautiful girl to enjoy life again!

Yet another snowstorm has hit us yesterday. It’s a heavy, wet snow that never stays around for a long time because it’s just not cold enough.
Although the actual outside temperature is around 0 degrees Celsius, the “feels like” temperature is much lower. The stinging wind that brought us the snow chills you right to the bone and most of the kitties are tucked up in their nicely heated rooms; the radiators have suddenly become everyone’s favorite snoozing spots.
However, some of them are sneezing and having eye discharge, it seems to happen every winter, so please, if you can, help us provide them with high quality food and vitamin supplements to make them stronger for what lies ahead.
This year’s cold season is evidently far from finished.
Thank you all in advance!

Regards and thanks – Danica.

Serbia: 5/2/15 – More News From Danica At Shelter Felix.
Posted on February 5, 2015 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)
Unfortunately, last year’s phase of shelter repairs lasted forever and it wasn’t until mid November that we began to think of raising funds for the first tank of gas for central heating.
Things couldn’t have looked darker until the awesome Laura Simpson and her very impressive organization The Great Animal Rescue Chase & Harmony Fund stepped in and managed to raise almost the entire sum needed in no time at all.
Thanks to all of the wonderful people who responded to our plea for help, none of the Felix kitties even noticed the severe drops of outside temperatures in December as their rooms were properly heated and pleasantly warm.
The first shipment of heating fuel is supposed to last until the end of February and then we’ll have to find a way to raise the funds for another gas delivery.
