Symi Animal Welfare News
I’ve just had the latest news release in from SAW and it’s posted below. I’ve also set up a new page for them so we can add and keep news items as they come in:
The winter weather so far on Symi has been kind, the street cats are dry, healthy and aren’t forced into scavenging foo-scraps from the smelly, rotting, damp waste-skips we’ve experienced in previous wet winters! There are feeding stations in a variety of locations in Yialos, Chorio and Pedi, our volunteers are as busy as ever providing essential food paid for by the generosity of Symi Visitors throughout the year. We are also providing food for a couple of abandoned dogs and 2 ’strays’ have actually been re-homed on the Island.
Plans for the autumn vet-visit are well underway and the date has already been set. There will be a clinic from 6-12 October. If you are interested in becoming part of our volunteer team and/or need more information about our work and vet-week 2008, please email me at symielec@otenet.gr .
