SOLIDARITY
IN TRAVEL EXPENSES FOR ANIMAL ADOPTIONS ABROAD
We are a group of people dedicated to helping animals that have very little chance of getting adopted in Portugal. These not only include senior animals with multiple health problems but also those that fall into the ‘disabled’ bracket i.e. amputated limbs, blind, etc. It is difficult to find in this people who are dedicated enough to help an animal with this type of physical disability and these animals face dim prospects for adoption. Animals that are not considered perfect are almost frowned upon because they are not in the most perfect health and condition.
On the other hand,
in some parts of Europe, families owning several animals are extremely open and willing to care and
look after a disabled animal for the rest of its life. They offer excellent
conditions where the animal is
integrated into the home and given a life of dignity that could never be found
here in Portugal.
In order for us to
continue our work in saving animals from municipal kennels and from the streets
of Portugal, we would
like to make a special request that is quite different from the usual and that
is to assist us with funding for the travel expenses in sending an animal
abroad.
Regulations for
adoptions of dogs abroad are strict requiring that animals are:
spayed/neutered, vaccinated,
dewormed, microchipped, have blood tests and a passport. On top of this there
is the cost of the transport of the animal and all of this comes to a total
cost of around Euros 150.
All of these costs
are difficult to bear and we would like to ask for your help in doing this for
these animals. This value provides
a direct passage to a new life in another country for an animal. If you think
about it, it isn’t much to make an animal happy for the rest of its days is it?
We would really
like to keep this project going and to continue to save the lives of animals,
so we appeal to your generosity in helping us to continue to send animals from
Portugal to a better life in another country.
Please do not let
this dream end! Help us and contribute to a better world for animals.
Thank you in the
name of all the animals that we have saved and that are today living a happy
and dignified life
through our help and to those who we hope to help in the future.
Thank you very
much,
Constança Silva
