Friends, we have widely publicized our economic difficulties, due to the immense requests for help for abandoned animals. We ask for your help to settle debts to the clinics.
The Patinhas Sem Lar Association, based in Espinho, was created 10 years ago. We have a canine shelter with capacity for 100 dogs, and a cattery with capacity for 80 cats. All animals are properly vaccinated, dewormed and neutered if they are over 6 months old. In addition to the funds spent to keep sheltered animals in the best sanitary conditions, there is also the high cost of animals collected from the street in need of urgent veterinary care: animals run over with bone fractures, animals with parasitic and other diseases, litters of dogs and cats abandoned newborns. We currently have 10,000 euros in debt at the Santa Marinha Veterinary Hospital, and requests for help are daily. We created this campaign with the aim of raising this amount, so that we can continue to help so many sick animals, left to fend for themselves.
