Funding needed – Human welfare – wer’e not just animals
If only we could get funding to keep going – in times like this – rescues are needed more than ever. Here’s our Facebook page for last night and there are about 5 calls missing from this list just for the 1 day.
If anyone can think of how we can get Grant or Big Lottery funding – to support these people – I would love to hear from you.
“The phone calls that come through on our rescue mobile get more and more each day. I bet no other person has to handle calls from so many people in a day totally in crisis and crying than I have to answer. Just a few of todays calls are:-
1. Lady severely poorly, hubby looking after 4 children and an ill parent, dog too strong and knocking them over small back yard – can’t cope. Large 3 yr old mastiff x needs a home.
2. Lady broken her ankle, cant handle her 11 yr old ridgeback as her bones are frail – can’t afford boarding or transport and doesn’t know what to do.
3. Lady having to give away her cat as hubby doesn’t like the cat and she’s pregnant – gotta get rid of the cat.
4. Vets have had to take in a large bull breed who is adorable, they had to remove his leg a few weeks ago, now owner going to prison and can’t keep the dog – he’s nowhere for it to go. Healthy and lovely facing being put to sleep as no room.
5. Lady whose son has separated from partner, ended up with a cat he can’t keep in his home, cat has literally nowhere to go.
6. Lady desperate to find a home for a cat that she’s been looking after but her cats don’t like it and they are fighting.
7. The pound called- they are full again with no spaces for today’s dumped dogs.
8. Call from a lady who’s dog we rehomed for them when its owner died.
9. Lady called to say the previous owners of her house left behind 2 cats that are trying to get in her house and her daughter is allergic to cats. Its pitiful to hear their please.I can’t remember any more, but the phone never stops ringing – that along with looking after the dogs we have in care and trying to sort out all their health and behaviour issues – and all day spent trying to think of ways how we can raise money to keep going – doesn’t bade well for the future of us or of the pets in need.
On that sad note, I will say goodnight and lets hope tomorrow, we get a donation in to keep us going but even that – still can’t cope to help all these people and their pets in genuine need.”
