What are you #THANKFUL-FOR


Food Is a great item to be thankful for,  All of us animals need it to live



  
We are grateful we all can live together in a home, We all need it to feel safe.




We all need LOVE, COMPASSION, and CARING



But this is reality for most


This is how life starts for most  street animals



AND THIS IS HOW IT ENDS WITH OUT YOUR HELP

Can't Adopt a Street Dog.. Then become a virtual adopter

Virtual Adoption is a section of AWABosnia.org     this page EXPLAINS ALL ABOUT IT - 

Here are some worthy rescues you could donate to with out help these animals will die in the streets.



 1. http://www.youcaring.com/nonprofits/andjeosarajevo/267626 all about Andjeo Sarajevo run by Edina Pasic. Donating here you can indicate any animal, any bill or just for general funding..

2. https://www.facebook.com/HelpForFurries  Run by Miska Oksanen and Encarni Erzsebet. A new and upcoming rescue, giving funds raised to whom ever they can help. They post reciepts.
Their pay pal account is: helpforfurries@gmail.com

3.  The Spanish Cats - http://www.youcaring.com/medical-fundraiser/cats-in-danger-in-granada-spain/267296   Each adult cat costs 100 euro to get them from the shelter and 50 euro for kittens.. after that 20-to 40 euro each month to help feed them and pay vet bills for each. (They are new and need help!)      Please  visit the page

4.  Ruff Beginnings: Special Needs Dogs -   Run by Hare Lucinda  https://www.facebook.com/groups/161518090669589/
Ruff Beginnings is a group to support Eastern European dog rescuers, raise funds for emergencies/vet/foster and transport but will support rescuers who also have cats by sharing with Kitty Connetions.
Our paypal is - specialneedsruffbeginnings@gmail.com

A group of us wants every member of Ruff Beginings to donate one Euro on Dec 1st. But I invite you to help this great RESCUE and donate even if your not a member! Hare Lucinda helps several rescues herself and her pages and events help all who ask.. But it seems we forget she has rescue animals she needs help supporting too So add a Euro for her too!

5. Kitty Connections is a positive, supportive group of people, who are coming together to help cats in need in Europe. This group will focus on spay/neuter projects, providing food for hungry cats, emergency vet care announcements, vaccinations, sharing information and experience, supporting each other, raising awareness for cats that need adopters and fosterers and keeping moral and positive energy high, to enable us to help as many cats as we possibly can. 




IT IS HARD TO THINK OF ALL THESE GROUPS AND THE HELP THEY NEED WHEN ALL WE WANT IS TO GATHER TOGETHER AND SHARE WITH FAMILY..

BUT WE ANIMALS ARE ALL FAMILY.. WE HUMANS SHARE GENETICALLY WITH ALL OTHER ANIMALS..

It does not matter in this case if you believe in CREATION or in EVOLUTION  All animals SHARE GENETICS.. 


CAN WE SHARE AT LEAST TODAY  
FOOD    SHELTER  LOVE
and understanding!

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TODAY... NOW EVEN
To use a link and donate to one of these needy Rescues so these animals can be thankful too!!


THANK YOU
Nelda
I am thankful for family and friends and for being cancer free

and for the support you will give to one of these rescues!

Virtual Adoption

Virtual Adoption

Nov 18, 2014
This programme is made to help and manage Virtual Adoptions for some of the dogs AWAB assists.

When you become Virtual Adoptor for a rescue from Bosnia Herzegovina, you will not only help keep the animal safe and off the streets, but will create a special bond. We understand that not everyone can adopt; which is why becoming a Virtual Adopter for one of the rescues whose pictures and story touched you is a wonderful alternative to adoption.The bond formed through this virtual adoption program will keep you connected to the progress of your chosen rescue, and hopefully, you will see them find their wonderful forever home. The ultimate goal is to keep them safe.

If you want to become a VA:1.  Look at the list of animals below, choose which one(s) you'd like to support2. Contact Encarni Erzsébet to let her know you are joining the VA programe and what animals you are supporting: https://www.facebook.com/anj.encarnie NOTE: IT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO CONTACT ENCARNI DIRECTLY IF YOU CHOOSE TO BE A VIRTUAL ADOPTER, NOT as a comment on this note or on a thread on the animal's photograph.3. VA payments go to our Paypal account:  donations@awabosnia.org
***IT IS VERY IMPORTANT  to mark your donation as : VA+dog(or cat) name(S).***

Most dogs need 120* euros per month to stay safe off the streets, so we hope to set 6 VAs per dog at 20 EU each. We understand that not everyone can manage 20 EU per month, so you can also choose your own amount that you can donate per month and we will continue to look for VA's for that dog until the "goal"is reached. So, for example : Person1 : 20€/month Person2: 10€/month Person3: 7€month TOTAL : 37€/120€ 
Cats are 65 EU per month.*There are some special cases where they need a bit more than others, (i.e demodex treatment, pet hotel)

4. Let Encarni know approximately what date of the month you will make your payment this will help her keep track of things.

5. Normally Encarni will send out a reminder either by email or pm, so please let her know if you would like this too, and on what date of the month you'd like her  to send it.

LissyLee





The last moments of LissyLee who could have been a  Sarajevo Street Dog.
A story by  nelda l. percival

It is dark and cold, the last time I ate was three days ago when that big dog dropped that bread and I gobbled it down while he chased me. He bit me while I squirmed under that cement wall. It still hurts. I wish momma was here, I could cuddle up to her warm body and she would clean that hole in my hip. Wallowing in the dirt stopped the bleeding, but maybe there were bad things there..

Momma where are you, I whimper. she left to get food. Momma you wouldn’t leave me alone would you? I whimper more but they may find me...I’m scared; those people with the poles chased me again today. I heard the big dog screaming, I think they got him. I haven’t smelled him since they left. 
Momma said there were nice people who will give us food, but how do you tell which are nice and who will hit and kick me. Johnny my brother was hit by a car I saw his head splatter as that monister ran over him…
Momma where are you… I’m so tired and hungry and cold.. Please, come home, I want you so badly. I’m so tired.... my eyes close and I sleep.

Oh there’s Momma I feel her body beside me, she is so warm and she is kissing me. I open my eyes; I love my Momma! Johnny's here too and he isn't hurt..

Momma where were you? It’s ok honey we will go to the bridge together and you will never hurt or be hungry and cold again… I love you baby come on, we need to go now. 

Momma can we play there.. Yes Honey we can play and no one will ever hurt you or Johnny again.. LissyLee closes her eyes and their specters fade into the rainbow...
~~~
THIS COULD BE THE STORY OF ANY PUPPY BORN IN SARAJEVO...
Will you help pay the shelter fees so Andjeo Sarajevo can save more babies… Their life's depend on our donations.
Please help! Donate at Paypal: andjeosarajevo@gmail.com tell her what it is for - food ? shelter? Rent car? New kitty? Use where needed most??
Save a life and give


oh please someone help Andjeo Sarajevo BiH the rescue group save these animals..they need donations .. they need help..
I dream that some really kind person, someone with money just says to hell with this and buys the needed car, and a farm and builds kennels and cat shelters in buildings and Edina can just keep rescuing everyone of these babies...
BUT THAT IS A DREAM... FACE REALITY!!!
Reality is that without the pennies you send the Euros you send the pounds you send every animal she has would be back out on the street and Edina's wonderful heart would just dry up from all her tears she would shed..
Reality is WITHOUT YOU there is no way to rescue, no way to save these Angels of God...
please any amount helps but thinking - oh some one will help they don't need my change.. hurts us ... and we do really do! NEED YOU !!
you can donate via Paypal: andjeosarajevo@gmail.com
