Helping the homeless look after their pets.

I get on so well with Julia the owner of the two donkeys we look after with our two, and you may remember this year she is giving me French lessons every week.
We were discussing her first employment after she had left University and as her family are from Alsace she lived and worked up there.
 Working for an association which tried to  help homeless people SDF' s sans domile fixe look after their pets, or old people keeping their pets and having visits if the elderly had to go into maisons de retraite. Basically helping elderly, poor people, look after their animals and keep the two together.
I never dreamed there would be such an association here in France.
What a very worthwhile job trying to help the homeless and their animals. Julia gave me a link to the association, which being an animal person I found interesting, so thought readers might also be interested.
