Consider Adopting a timid cat!

Written my Helena Neves:

Most people do not even consider adopting a shy cat, although if they scratched at the surface, they can be mostly suprised by the gem that lies beneath.
Even the shyest of cats can be playful and loving companion if given enough time to adjust and trust.
Something has happened in thier past to stop them from trusting humans and they desperately need our help to turn this around. Shy cats are not ferel - they just tend to be a little skittish about being handled or caught off guard in un familiar surroundings.

Especially if you are looking for a companion for your cat - please consider a shy cat as these cats tend to be the best to gel with another cat friend.

Although they may not know how to show it, shy cats do need us. The special bonds that they develop may be very rewarding to cat and human alike.
Instant lap cats they are not - and may well never be - but time and effort invested in a cat by one kind person may help them blossom again.

For more information on shy cats - please call Helena - 918149187 and come and visit some of the beautiful little cats that are at the Quintinha dos Animais - Goldra

THANK YOU!

Honey

Beautiful Honey is looking for a new home - she was found in a feild near to her current owners home just a year ago. Unfortunately, after bringing her home - fights between her and thier other bitch have got worse and worse. They are afraid they will kill eachother so therefore have to keep them separated.

Honey deserves to be in a family where she is the only dog or one of two. She loves attention and is great with all other animals and people.

Please consider honey as your forever pet.

HOP!

Hop is a medium sized three year old male - He was bought into the shelter in Feb. this year.

He has a very bad injury to his leg (which is why we named him Hop) He looked like he had been hit by a car and was extremely skinny.

Hop has a wonderful nature and would love someone to love him. He walks very well on the lead and we think he is fine with cats. He has been vaccinated and microchipped and has tested negative for Leish and Heartworm.

Hope would make a great companion.

Dog and cat duo! Do not have to be re homed together.

Happily in a home but sadly, their owner passed away last week! Scar and Billy are now looking for someone else to love them just as much!

SCAR: Female dog: Scar's story began when she was rescued as a pup literally from the jaws of her mum who had turned on her. She carry's a scar from the incident on her forehead, hence her name. She is a large dog (Mum-Husky X/Dad-German Shepherd X),18 months old and energetic with it! She requires good walks or fair space to run around.She has a beautiful nature and loves the company of both people and other dogs.She is now in urgent need of a new home. She is currently being cared for at kennels near Lagoa but cannot stay there indefinitely.She is spayed,fully vaccinated and in very good health.If you think you could offer Scar a home or would like to know more about and maybe meet her, contact me on 963183476.

Billy: At the request of the lady's daughter we have been asked to find Billy a new home.Billy is approximately two and a half years old.She is neutured and her vaccinations are up to date(to July/August next year).Being cared for by a neighbour, Billy enjoys the freedom of the outdoors and is happy to spend the best part of the day in the garden. She does however enjoy her cuddles at night.She has shared her home with Scar and is less keen on the company of other cats. She is very much an independent girl.If you would like more information and maybe think you could give Billy a home, please contact me on 963183476.Please note; Billy needs a new home by Mid-November when her caring neighbour leaves the Algarve for the winter. RE HOMED!!

Biskit - RE HOMED!

Biskit is a very docile, approx 1.5year old female ridgeback cross.

She has been spayed and vaccinated. Unfortunately, her parents are moving away at the end of the week so biskit can no longer stay in her family home. She is looking for a second chance.

Biskit gets on very well with other dogs, cats and all people so therefore will make the perfect family pet.

Bruno - URGENT - Looking for a new home

Bruno is a five year old male - he is a pure breed Sharpei.

Bruno has already been castrated, up to date with all of his injections, and is fully housetrained. Unfortunately Bruno has leishmanitus which doesn't affect him other than he needs to take a tablet a day for the rest of his life.

Bruno was bought from a pet shop at 7 months old by a family who realised that he was not the type of dog they wanted. He then lived in a rescue centre for two years before he was found by another family. Due to thier circumstances, they have had to leave the country and Bruno is now on his own, at the house, only visited once a day by the cleaner. Due to this he is very shy and he takes a little while to warm up to people.

Bruno really needs a loving family who have a garden to roam in. He gets along well with cats, and he doesn't mind other dogs.

What sort of a life is this for a dog? Please give Bruno a third chance.

Call 911084377 to take lovely Bruno home.
