I have just heard that Nikki has been designing a logo for Cats aid , I don't know if I approve !. Cats I think are ok don't get me wrong, it can be quite amusing to chase them around the garden and woof at them.
Anyhow, Cats Aid is run by Dave and volunteers. They help abandoned cats find new loving homes, rescue maltreated and dumped moggies and organise spaying and neutering of feral cats in Tenerife to help stop the population. Sounds like a good idea to me.
Cats Aid is having their first fundraiser on Sunday 29th at O'Jangles Bar, El mirador strip. There will be loads of fab entertainers, including Mister Sister, The Sisters of Doom Resurrected, Suzy Q, Bobby P, Jools, to name but a few. It kicks off at 1pm
There will be finger food on the day, along with raffles, quizzes and of course, fabulous prizes including meals at Roys and Bianco’s , champagne and a food hamper!
Check out Cat Aid website which was designed by talented web designer Kirsty
Very important numbers if you find an abandoned dog in Tenerife.
Information kindly supplied by Accion Del Sol ..
local police will inform Protection Civil who will collect the dog and take it to the appropriate legal dog refuge where the dog will immediately recieve medical care/ treatment, de fleed, wormed, castrated/sterilised, micro-chipped, recieve the necessary injections including rabies and issued with its passport. If the dog is micro-chipped then the owner will be contacted and the dog returned or the owner proscecuted if the dog has been abandoned or ill treated. If you really want to help the situation here in Tenerife then we all need to work in a legal and correct way. Every dog collected by Protection Civil is paid for by the ayunimiento in which the dog is found.

On thursday the 16th of september we are launching in conjunction with Danni Byrne of Tenerife Fitness a new keep fit club with your dog. Its aim is to get owners and there dogs more physical and mental stimulation. We intend to start with a couple of walks starting at the Arona Grand in Los Cristianos going on to do various agility games with your dog to get your heart rate up and both of you moving. Its a fun way to get fit for both parties and it will boast your metabolism and burn off more calories. Its also a great way for your dog and yourself to socialise more and make new friends. The charge for this is 3e per session. Please contact myself or pm me for Danni Brynes number if you have any queries . This is aimed at all levels of fitness. Everybody is welcome to join. We have refuge dogs that would love to join in if you don't have your own dog.

Marion at Accion-del-sol kindly held a barbecue for the brave people who did the Teide challenge last month, raising 1056 euros for the dogs at Accion-Del-Sol. Well done to the Volunteers and to Karen Clack for organising it !
