They are coming for us!

Dear animal lovers and friends of the CENTRO CANINO INTERNACIONAL

Today Friday 13th of April at 2 pm we rescued our beloved dogs Jacko, Pitufa, Negra, Pinto and Noir. They are now in the care of our members and volunteers.

However, no sooner had we collected them we were informed by Palma City Council that next Wednesday 18th of April at 4 p.m. they will be coming to seize our other dogs and haul them off to the municipal dog pound, Son Reus

We would like to thank you all for your support on 10th April and for all your calls and e-mails.

We are sorry that we are unable to answer them all.

Juan Gil
President

1. We are thankful that for the moment the Mayor has withdrawn her threat to remove the remaining animals. However we need to be vigilant and ensure that this is not merely a delaying tactic by her until after the election. Politicians hate to loose a fight. LET US REMAIN VIGILANT.

2. I know that stray animals are legally owned by the municipality, which implies a responsibility for the animals. So why are municipal policies and budgets mainly aimed at the killing of animals? If these animals have rock bottom priority, why can’t politicians let animal welfare organisations do what the community fails to do? What pleasure do politicians derive from animal abuse? So far I have not met one mayor who is concerned about animal welfare, let alone to pay for it.
   If you dislike these abandoned animals, then please stay away from them and leave it to the people who care.
