URGENT APPEAL This purebred Boxer

was seen taking shade from the hot sun under a road bridge. After seeing him there for a few days a lady fed him and supplied him with water. She telephoned us and although we were full and had no space available we decided to rescue the dog. After numerous phone calls pleading for assistance a lady we know that has her own private dog rescue facility in her finca agreed to take him in. A thorough examination by our vet revealed that he has Leishmania and Heartworm disease. He is also ultra anaemic due to the millions of fleas that had infested his body. He has had a blood transfusion for this and we hope that he will survive the next course of highly traumatic treatment that he will undergo to eliminate the heartworms. If he survives this he will then receive treatment for the Leishmania. He is just 4 years old, we have named him Del Boy. Can you sponsor Del Boy to help us pay for the expensive treatment he needs; For more information please call 611 606 001.

Ben and Tilley

Ben and Tilley are two 6 year old dogs who were signed over to APAH when their owners returned to the UK without them. Ben is a brown Labrador X and Tilley is a black Border Collie X. Both of them have lovely natures. It would be wonderful to re-home two dogs together but if someone offered to give either Ben or Tilley a home, we would separate them. If you would like to meet Ben and Tilley, please contact Natasha on 616 210 850 www.apahrescue.com

WANTED

Someone who would adopt this lovable male cat(same breed or similar as one in picture). He must have been lost or abandoned and all he wants is petting, love and a home. He wanted to get in my car so desperately that it broke my heart, he is not in a good shape now - has scars in many parts of his body but I will take him to the Vet to have him cured and treated, sterilized, de-wormed & de-fleed before it goes into the adopter’s home. He remains with a colony of cats I feed on weekends and holidays (rest of the week a Restaurant feeds them) but all are feral except for him, he just appeared a few days ago and still there but as he is determined to find a lovable family (as I am sure he had) he might go away and get into more danger. Tel. 697 574 199.

URGENT APPEAL These four small dogs

look terrified, and they are. They were been thrown into a disused old reservoir in the middle of nowhere, with no means escape, no water and no food, just left to die in this sweltering basin. It was by pure chance that they were seen before it was too late. When we arrived they were so frightened they did their best to avoid rescue by hiding among all the dead brush and debris in the concrete pit. It took our volunteers hours to rescue all four of them. This is the first photo that one of our volunteers took of them shortly after they arrived at the vet clinic, in the pen huddled together for reassurance. The smallest one is a female and the other three are male. Can you help to foster one or two of them or perhaps you would like to become a sponsor to supply urgently needed funds that the K9 Club can use to provide all the treatment necessary to bring them back to good health and then find each one a loving new home?
