2008 FASE - June Neutering Programme - GAWF visit

GREEK ANIMAL WELFARE FUND (GAWF) NEUTERING TEAM VISIT SPETSES FOR 1ST TIME. Spetses was happy to welcome the GAWF team namely Carol McBeth and vet Amalia Koundouri in June of this year.

The team concentrated on cat colonies at the Old Harbour Boat Yards and the Upper Monastery. Our targets were reached and over 60 cats were neutered. Reports of extreme cruelty had been reported in the Old Harbour Area, and hopefully a control on numbers will help to alleviate this brutality. Fortunately GAWF were able to neuter several of the “Dapia Dogs” which should reduce the numbers of unwanted puppies on the island.

Our sincere thanks to GEORGE GABRIEL for the use of his garage & Jeep and for offering hospitality and accommodation to the Vets during their visit. FASE would like to thank the Spetses’ Council for arranging our transport permit during this busy weekend, also the Spetses Police for their co-ordination.

Unwanted Kittens FASE

Every Spring/Summer Spetses has a major problem with kittens being thrown alive in plastic bags into rubbish bins.

Κάθε άνοιξη και καλοκαίρι οι Σπέτσες αντιμετωπίζουν ένα μεγάλο πρόβλημα με τα γατάκια που κάποιοι πετάνε στους κάδους των σκουπιδιών ζωντανά και δεμένα μέσα σε πλαστικές σακούλες.
