The new laws that came in January mean that pets need to be identified, called pucing here, and vaccinated. Imagine with a refuge full of dogs and cats that all need this doing before the little mites can be advertised, what a nightmare for those responsible for getting those animals rehomed.
The laws are good and needed but complying is not going to be easy.
If you would like to make donations to animal charities to help them with much needed funds this year I have listed some below. One refuge I have started working to help rehome animals is
http://lamereauxbetes.fr A French lady called Danielle Diczy
Many of you will remember Danielle took the two cats, brother and sister who we needed to find homes for urgently. An elderly couple needed to go back to the UK because of serious illness, they were going into rented accomodation when they got there so the cats could not go with them. I promised them we would find a home and we did with Danielle.
When we needed to find a home quickly for a donkey she was on the phone to say she would take him. In the end not needed but the offer was there.
With numerous dogs she has offered to take until a home was found and even offered to take Ruby.
So you can see why my loyalties are with this refuge. A friend Ann and I are coming up with a money making scheme for her, announced shortly. In the meantime cheques can be made to
La Mere aux Betes and sent to Danielle Diczy, Lasplanes, 46170 Castelnau Montratier.
Danielle is in the process of setting up a paypal account, which I will tell you about later.
Sue Glibbery at Poorpaws is always in need of funds and Sue works very closely with Danielle. As Sue is not a registered association she asks for cheques to be made to either Clinique Veterinaire de Prayssac or Croc Services (her feed supplier). She cannot accept cheques made out to her personally.
Sue Glibbery, 46800 St. Pantaleon is where to send them
What about my lovely St. Antonin ladies Kathy and Maeva ? They do have an association but are not able to take money at the moment.
