Thank You also to my only volunteer Val. She helped me buying supplies, cooking and feeding. Godbless you Val.

Above all thank you to pur almighty father for safety, protection and enabling us to feel compassion for this poor creatures. All glory belongs to you God!

PLEASE READ TNR FAQ

Q: What does the R stand for in TNR (trap/neuter/r...) ? 🤔
A: RETURN, not Release!

The R in "TNR" stands for RETURN. After we've trapped and taken the cat to the clinic for spay/neuter, vaccines and ear tip, we RETURN them to the place where they were captured. We DO NOT release them to a different area, nor do we euthanize them. This distinction is IMPORTANT!

Community cats live in a 3-mile radius. Within this territory, they have established resources for food and shelter. This is their home and the area which sustains them; do not remove them from it (unless their lives are in danger). Community cats are territorial and will protect their territory from outside cats. When you TNR a cat and RETURN it to its territory, it will 1) no longer contribute to overpopulation, 2) defend its territory from outside cats, and 3) be a peaceful neighbor as undesirable habits like fighting, spraying and yowling will have been eliminated through spay/neuter. Releasing a cat just anywhere is akin to dumping it in a foreign place. Don't do that.

Education is key!!! 💡 Share your knowledge to protect and improve the lives of our community cats!

First but difinitely not the last Stray Feeding at coastal areas in Dapitan City. It's been a long time since our last stray feeding and it feels good to be back. This program does not only fill hungry stray dog's billies but also it educates people about Animal Welfare. We make sure to stop by and talk to people specially those who are raising eyebrows at us. We can't blame them, because it's thier first time seeing strangers feeding dogs but after we introduced ourselves and explain to them what we do, they are grateful and happy, some even hoped that we would come back more often.

I am hoping that we can do more than stray feeding. Something that can really make and impact in the lives of animals and the community. Low cost spay and neuter is on top of my list.

Thank you so much Ms. Jana for sponsoring this stray feeding program and to the volunteers Val & Kit. Thank you for your compassion for the animals and selfless dedication. May the Lord our God bless all of you.

Until next stray feeding.
Be Kind
Diana 🌹

To God be the Glory!

P.S. Some of the dogs are camera shy but rest assured all of them ate.

I happen to pass by a dog in the middle of the road in the scorching heat of the sun. I thought he was a hit-and-run dog but there is no wound anywhere on his body. A bystander told me someone may have dumped him there. No one cared to pick him up or at least place him on the side.
Of course! Why would someone care for a skinny, lifeless, smelly co**se?
He was once a cute puppy, once loved by his mommy, once a favorite but he grew and was no longer cute, he was starved, and little by little life was robbed from him. Mange and ticks all over his body. I suspect he died from starvation and someone may see him as garbage and poisoned him.
He tried to survive and tried to live life like any of us. Someone who feels pain and sadness is discarded just like that without dignity.
I was asked by a motor cab driver if it was my dog, I said no, and he said just leave him there, a garbage truck will just pick him up. Just like all other worthless trash. Is that it? Just like that!
I said I would add my fair ( just shut up jk). Maybe he is wondering why I go through such trouble for a dog who is dead. Perhaps he is right, there's nothing I can do to bring him to life. But at least I can give a decent resting place. My heart breaks for this dog. So sorry love. Run free now. No more pain, no more thirst, no more hunger.

Be Kind,
Diana 🥀

Salamat sa lahat ng nag donate makakabili na kami ng 1 NEXGARD bukas. I popost po namin later ang names ng donors. Happy Sunday and Godbless everyone.

Update:As of 10:14am 05/19/2024
Total Donations received ₱1,450
Total Donations Goal ₱2,200
*2 ka Nexgard ako paliton pra sa usa ka stray na ginapakaon ni maam Maricel Galicano.
Daghang Salamat!

‼️Warning Graphic Image‼️

I was eating bbq in a carenderia and a stray dog came to me asking for food. I gave him some and I notice something wierd on his ears. Poor boy got load of ticks on his ears and I can't imagine how itchy, uncomfortable and painful it is.

I asked Doc Han of Doc Han Veterinary Clinic on what to do. She advice me to give hime NEXGARD once a month until all his ticks disappear/dies for now and will see how it goes.

I am hoping someone with a kind heart could sponsor him for his treatment. The Nexgard cost ₱1,100. I prefer to buy at Doc Han's clinic so that I can ask Doc for medical advice regarding Hotdogs progress also she is our friendly vet always ready to help. ♥️

I don't know his name yet but for now I will call him HOTDOG since he love it so much.
He is a patron in the said place. Base on his physical appearance He is eating well. I will personaly administer nexgard to him and visit him every now and then. I will also talk to the owner of the place.

If you suggest that I will rescue him,as I assess the situation he doesn't need need rescuing. He is happy there. I am also not sure if he is really a stray or he lives nearby, but one thing that I am sure of he needs help.

Please see comment box for the video.

Injustice and Oppresion thrives in places where the norms are never questioned.
-Angela Watson

Hustisya para sa mga iro og iring nga gipang pusil og gipanghiloan sa usa ka pampublikong eskwelahan sa Piñan.

Naka dawat kamig mga mensahe pakitabang gikan sa mga concerned citizen mahitungod aning mga hayop nga gipang pasipad-an. Subo kaayo huna hunaon nga ga antos sa kasakit ning mga inosenteng hayop. Matod pa sa concerned citizen nga mga bot an kini na mga iro og iring og dili kani mga hilabtanon. Gumikan sa kagutom og kauhaw maong mang langyaw sila aron maka kitag grasya. Naay mga pipila ka malumo og kasing2x nagapakaon sa ilaha og mo dagsa sila didto.

Apan naay pipila nga nabalaka nga basin og makapaak kining mga iro og iring sa mga studyante apan wala nila damha nga ing ani ka brutal og harabas ilang buhaton nga aksyon batok sa mga hayop.

Adunay balaod ga mando sa proteksyon sa mga hayop mao kini ang Animal Welfare Act of 1998, as amended by RA 10631. This Order is hereby promulgated to prescribe the guidelines and procedures for the implementation of Republic Act No. 8485 as Amended by RA 10631 in order to promote and safeguard the welfare and well being of animals. Mao ang gibuhat nila sa mga iro og iring nakalapas gayod aning balaoda.

Dili gyud makatarunganon ang ilang gibuhat. Ga antos pag ayo ang kga hayop og basta2x lang gikuha ilang kinabuhi nga daw wala silay balatian.

Mao bani solusyon? Mao ba ni angay nila? Sama natongmga tawo bation pod silag kagutom og kasakit. Di gyud makataronganon ni ilang gibuhat. Sulod pa gyud sa eskwelahan nga mao untay institusyon nga magtudlo og kalouy para sa mga hayop mao naman nouy gadagmal.
Ubay2x ni nga iro gipasupad an pero mao ra ni na picture ran sa concerned citizen.

Sa mga tag iya aning mga iro og iring hinaot nga di namo mamuhi og hayop og inyo ra pod diay nga pasagdan!
Sa mga tawo gapasipala aning mga louy kaayo na iro og iring hinaot nga usigon mo sa inyong mga konsensya. Naay Ginoo galantaw sa inyong mga binuhat og anihon gyud ninyo iyong gitanom.

Sa mga iro og iring nga biktima aning mga demonyo. Run free mga langga, pasayloa mi nga kinahanglan mo mag suffer aning kalibutana. Ayaw mog kabalaka kay dili kawang inyong kamatayon. Hugs mga langga. 😢

‼️ PUPPY FOR ADOPTION ALERT‼️

Good morning ka Paws! These cute little puppies are living in an abandoned boarding house in Dapitan City. They are looking for a furever home. Three puppies are available. They are weaned and ready for their deworming and vaccine.

Adopters must be dog lovers, capable of providing the needs of the dog e.g. food, and medical needs, the dog must be accepted by all family members, and willing to bring the dog with them in case they will transfer residence. Keep in mind that having a dog is a lifetime commitment.

With a heavy heart, we would like to inform everyone that Pastilan has crossed the rainbow bridge due to kidney failure. Doc Ricky and his staff tried their very best to revive Pastilan however his body is too weak to fight. Even though Pastilan did not die due to a bullet however the injury he sustained from beating caused his untimely death.
He died because someone evil and cowardly chose to hurt someone who was voiceless, helpless, and innocent. Justice will prevail and karma will come and get you.

Our prayer for comfort goes to Pastilan’s fur parents and his fur siblings who will dearly miss him. He is a very good boy, gentle and loving. Pastilan will have his final resting place in their home. Maam Mildred would like to thank everyone who prayed and sent well wishes and financial assistance for her beloved dog.
No more pain now good boy, you are now free from pain and suffering. Rest easy dear.

We all felt your love and compassion through your heartfelt cash donations. Even in times of crisis, you all stood with us. We can't thank you all enough for your help. May our almighty Father keep you safe and bless you abundantly.

We will now officially close our solicitation for Pastilan's vet bill as we already gathered the total amount to pay for it.
We will have a separate post tomorrow for all the donations we received to acknowledge the donors and proper accounting.

We hope and pray that animal cruelty will end. Let us all stand up and be the voice for those who can’t speak!

Shalom
Be Kind

Pastilan's owner maam Mildred said goodnight and soothed him before heading home.

Pastilan is a victim of animal cruelty, allegedly someone gunshot him but fortunately he escaped, however, there was forced trauma on his rear that might have caused him unable to stand up. He was hit by something hard for sure. When Pastilan's owner heard his cry for help, they rushed to get him but the culprit was nowhere to be found.

Right now Pastilan is now confined at Dipolog Veterinary Doctor. He is in critical condition. As per Doc. Ricky his creatinine level is at 9.6 and the normal level ranges from 0.3-1.4. It is very high and a sign that his kidney is not functioning very well.
Before we left the clinic we were very hopeful knowing that there was no gunshot wound and all of his CBC results were good. Later tonight I received a call from Doc stating about Pastilan's condition.

I am asking everyone for prayer not just for Pastilan but also for his owner who traveled very far to have him vetted. It was a tedious journey since they lived uphill and going back home the tire of their motorbike got flat, but thank God they arrived home safe and sound.

Please pray for Pastilan that he will be able to make it and that justice will be served for him.

Thank you to everyone who prayed for traveling mercy while we were rushing to the vet and to everyone who sent their cash donations. I will be posting separately the donations for proper acknowledgment, accounting, and transparency.

Thank You to Doc Ricky and staff for accomodating us eventhough they are already closed but they waited for us. Godbless you Doc.

Thank you to my fellow animal advocate Nomad Nanay Maybelle for all the support.

We continue to knock on your hearts for any cash donations as we don't know yet how much is the total vet bill.
Please indicate"PASTILAN" for proper accounting.

SPIKE AND FRIENDS UPDATE 🐶

I received the official death certificate on George Mayol earlier today. According to death certificate, Mayol died of a heart attack.

With that in mind, our acting City Veterinarian, Dr. Hope Dejadena, will shorten the observation period for Spike, the dog in question.

After the observation period, Spike will be up for adoption, hopefully within the week.

Dili na nato dugayon because it clearly shows in the death certificate, that he didn’t die from the dog but from a heart attack.

Dr. Dejadena said she plans to release Spike for adoption by Thursday this week since mao sad na nga adlawa nga mahuman ang 10-day observation period.

She added that Spike is not showing any sign or symptom of rabies.

Aside ni Spike, Dr. Dejadena said there will be five dogs with him that are also ready for adoption.

I would like to thank everyone, ilabi na sa atong very active nga acting City Vet and to our furparents nga nishow gyud sa ilang pagsupport ug love for Spike and all the dogs concerned.

Until now, makareceive gihapon ko ug messages of support para ni Spike. It goes to show nga daghan na kaayo tag mga constituents and even friends outside our city that are showing love for our canine friends.

A little poem taken from poetry book written in Camberlay, UK.
This photo is of “Camberley Kate”, the lady who roamed the streets with her “stray dogs” cart and picked up all the abandoned. It is said that during her lifetime she rescued and gave a loving home to more than 600 stray dogs.

Today I honor this inspiring lady and her legacy, she dedicated her life to saving dogs, and being kind to all animals.
