Ciao -Micul print/The little prince!

Pe Ciao il vedem de fiecare data cand ne oprim la benzinarie. El este catelul care sta in usa si cerseste de mancare si care se bucura de fiecare data cand cineva ii acorda atentie. Nu te musca si nu te latra, el se considera acasa si face oficiile de gazda la fel precum  un valet englez. Viata lui poate parea lipsita de griji dar de fapt nu este deloc asa. Puii care se nasc pe  marginea drumurilor aglomerate sunt victime sigure ale traficului intens. De cele mai multe ori ei sunt accidentati si atunci cand nu mor raman cu handicapuri mai mici sau mai mari ceea ce le face viata mizerabila. Mi-as dori sa nu mai vad catei ca Ciao la benzinarii  dar case pentru ei se gasesc greu. Singura solutie ramane sterilizarea lor si  in acest fel ei nu vor mai da nastere altor catei care sa aiba o soarta extrem de cruda. Cati dintre noi nu am vazut catei striviti pe sosele?? Ce imagine groaznica !!!@(( Ciao este simbolul luptei pentru sterilizarea a cat mai multor catei de pe marginea drumurilor iar  anul acesta a intrat in concursul organizat de Humane Society of the United States cu prilejul Spay Day =ziua internationala a reducerii numarului de animale nedorite. Fiecare vot pentru Ciao are un dublu impact : consolidarea portofoliului de puncte si strangerea de fonduri pentru proiectele mobile ale Romania Animal Rescue-RAR  www.romaniaanimalrescue.com.Votul se poate face direct pe pagina concursului      http://photocontest.humanesociety.org/contest.html?page=viewIndex&contestId=2&clearSearch=1&paging=0  sau pe www.Romaniaanimalrescue.com unde veti gasi mai multe posibilitati de a dona. Rugamintea este ca in cazul in care donati pe pagina RAR sa ne scrieti un e mail in care sa ne confirmati donatia pentru ca noi sa o transferam in concurs . Lupta este stransa si fiecare vot conteaza . Practic eu vad acest concurs ca pe un exercitiu de unitate al Romanilor. Putem dona 5 10 15 $. Suma , pentru multi dintre noi nu inseamna foarte mult dar care,  poate salva o viata . In cazul in care nu donati, puteti populariza concursul pe pagina voastra personala .Va multumesc ca ati avut rabdare sa cititi aceste randuri si va multumesc anticipat indiferent care va fi optiunea voastra . /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// .Ciao is the dog you see each time you stop at a gas station.  He sits patiently by the front door, wagging his tail in hopes of a moment of attention from a kind stranger.  He doesn’t bark, he doesn’t bite, he merely waits in his humble “home” with the patience and forbearance of an English valet.  His life may appear to be easy and carefree.  But nothing could be further from the truth.  Most puppies who are born near the congested highways are guaranteed to fall victim to the unrelenting traffic.  Often times fatal, these accidents can also lead to crippling injuries which create lives of abject misery.  It would be wonderful if all the dogs like Ciao could find homes, real homes.  But this is not a likely outcome.  The only humane solution is to practice sterilization to prevent these animals from suffering such cruel fates.  We have all seen dogs who have been crushed under the wheels of oncoming cars, their remains left behind on the road. It is a sight both terrible and preventable.  Ciao is serving as the symbol of the struggle to fund spay/neuter operations for other gas station dogs just like him.  This year, his image has been entered in the HSUS Spay Day Photo Contest.  Every vote cast has a double impact:  first,  it will help fund spay/neuter projects throughout the country and secondly, it will help Ciao win the contest and bring international attention to the plight of strays in Romania. You can vote by visiting the HSUS Photo Contest page:  http://photocontest.humanesociety.org/contest.html?page=viewIndex&contestId=2&clearSearch=1&paging=0  or by visiting Romania Animal Rescue’s page: www.romaniaanimalrescue.com. If you donate on RAR page please send us an e-mail to confirm the donation and we will tranfer the amount to the contest. Every vote counts and so does every donation, no matter how small.  A sum like $5 or $10 has relatively little meaning to most of us.  But it can mean lives saved and suffering alleviated.  And even if you can’t donate, you can still make a difference by posting this story to Facebook, MySpace or Twitter and spreading the word.  Thank you–

Pisicile si apa/Cats and water/Katzen und wasser.

Dragii mei, Intrebare: pisicilor le place apa sau nu? In cazul felinelor  salbatice mari situatia este diferita in functie de zona in care traiesc. Felinele mari din savana africana  fac bai frecvente in apa raurilor, in acest fel reglandu-si temperatura corporala. In zonele mai  reci felinele evita  sa se ude  din cauza inabilitatii blanii ude de a mentine temperatura normala a corpului. Pisicile domestice cum ar fi cele  din rasele Bengal si Van sunt cunoscute ca iubitoare de apa, ele intrand in apa si chiar inotand. Un fapt cunoscut si real  este ca pisicilor nu le place sa fie stropite cu apa sau sa le intre apa in urechi. Din experienta de veterinar va spun ca nici una din pisicile tratate pentru afectiuni ale urechilor nu a fost relaxata in timpul tratamentului. Puii de pisica dezvolta cel putin  curiozitate fata de apa, daca nu sunt fortati sa intre in cazi sau dusuri la aceasta varsta. De cele mai multe ori, pe viitor, robinetele deschise vor fi  cel putin o jucarie pe cinste …. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Do cats like water? When it comes to wild large felines the situation differs  regarding to the enviroment they live  in. The large felines from the african savanna like to take baths in the rivers and this helps them  regulate their body temperature. In the colder enviroment the  felines avoid to wet their body because this interferes with the insulating capacity of their coat . Domestic cats like Van and Bengal love to swim and  they are famous about this interesting habit . Majority of cats do not like water, they avoid getting their coat  wet and having water in their ears. Throughout my years of experience with cats being treated for ear problems, there were only exceptional cases with cats that were calm during the ear cleaning process. Kittens develop at least  curiosity towards water unless they had bad experiences like being forced in tubs and showers. Quite often they will develop a special interest in dripping pipes and open faucets … ############################################################################### Grossen katzen in Africa gefallen in den Flussen zu schwimmen  und damit senken  sie  das Temperatur  ihrer Koerper, dagegen in den kaelteren Gebieten die grossen Katzen lassen ihre Haut nicht nass werden. Ein nasses Fell schutzt den Koerper nicht so gut gegen Frierengefahr. Hauskatzen wie Van und Bengal  leben neben  Wasser. Sie  schwimmen gerne  und sind beruhmt dafur. Die meisten Katzen lieben das wasser nicht, die versuchen ihr Fell immer  trocken zu behalten. Katzen mit Ohrentzuendungen sind nicht so einfach zu behandeln. Ohrspullung   ist nicht ihr Lieblingsbehandlung und nur seltsam  habe ich Katzen die so eine behandlung geniessen . Junge Katzen zeigen mindestens Neugierigkeit fur Wasser, bedonders wenn die keine schlechte wassergebunden erfahrungen gehabt haben. Sehr oft werden Katzen an tropfenden Wasserrohren sehr interesiert …

Iris din lacrima/Teardrop Iris

Cainele pe care l am prezentat cu trauma cumplita la ochi  si pe care colega mea l-a botezat Iris va fi adoptata!! Si in acest caz ceea ce a contat hotarator a fost faptul ca a avut o poveste … din nefericire o poveste tragica, groaznica uluitoare tulburatoare incredibila …care a ajutat-o isi gaseasca un camin. Citeam povesti cand eram mic, imi placeau la nebunie, erau povesti cu zane si cu eroi cu Ileana Cosanzeana si Fat frumos din lacrima, cum suna ……Iris nu poata sa vada,dar cu siguranta va incepe sa invete sa rada si sa se bucure de viata . Mult succes Iris in noua ta viata . NU te vom uita!!! ************************************************************************************************** The dog that I  presented earlier and which was named Iris will be adopted. A decisive role in the whole story was that she had a story, a horrifying, unbelievable, cruel and  terrible  story. Weird but  this is what helped her find a home .I used to read a lot of stories when i was a kid,i loved it when my grandmother used to tell us stories with princes, kings, princesses and  mighty heroes … Today’s  stories are sometimes  ugly and so is yours Iris, though i am glad it turned into your salvation after all. Rise and shine Iris, Good luck into your new life  we will not forget you though we weren’t worthy of you… ************************************************************************************************ Iris, die Huendin die ich vorher vorgestellt habe, wird adoptiert werden. Dazu hat ihre schrekliche Geschichte  eine entschedeinde Rolle gespiellt. Als ich nur ein kleines Kind war, redete ich gerne geschichten mit Prinzen, Koenigen, Prizessinen und Helden … Heutzutage sind die Geschichten manchmal unglaublich haesslich und furchtbar…Diese sind immer so oft die waren Geschichten …So eine hast du Iris auch gehabt … komischerweise deine Geschichte ist zu einem Rettungsjacke verwandelt …Ich freue mich  sehr ..Viel erfolg mit deinem neuen Leben. Wir werden dich nicht vermissen!! Wir haben dich nicht verdient,doch werden wir immer an dich errinern ..
