Anima – March Statistics about Cats and Dogs

  |   News, Statistics regarding animals

Anima has rescued in the period 104 animals, around 10 per month! Of those, 30 were de-sexed and the remaining is only waiting a recovery and the appropriate age.
In the same period 42 animals were adopted. The huge death of animals is explained by the poor condition of them when arrived, or because they were already collected dead or by some diseases that sometimes happen in crowded shelters, even if we try our best to have a proper quarantine and higiene. In March the number of deaths decreased substantially in what concern cats.
Anima adopts the policy of No-Kill and No-Cage, policies that limit our capacity to increase the number of rescues or oblige us to be more selective in our rescue operations!
Last year we rescued 379 dogs and cats and we were able to make only 166 adoptions!
Please understand, without adoptions we can not save more animals!
Please be part of the solution, not part of the problem!
There are community members that only complain but do nothing when we need their help!
Just because we are an association that protects animals this doesn’t mean necessarily that animals can be dumped to our shelter! We need to keep a proper balance between animals and space, otherwise we are saving animals that will be killed or kill others!
Animals living with us have a life with quality! Not as good as if you could adopt them! But they have play times and thousands of visitors per year!
Our toilets are now being used as pens for animals!
We have no more space! Please understand! Even in such situation we analyze case by case before any decision is taken.
Thank you!
