What do we have in common?

Answer:
We were both rescued by Parc. Tam is on the left and was rescued 5 years ago when he was a very tiny puppy. He was completely covered in ticks and was so anaemic if he and his sister hadn't been rescued when they were, they would surely have died within 24 hours. Jo is our 'star' feral dog living rough and starving this time last year. Parc sponsored him then found him a foster home and then a forever home. Both these dogs live in Tala and have great fun when they meet up every morning. Parc are thrilled that both these wonderful dogs have a very privileged life with splendid homes. They are very lucky dogs and their owners I know think they are very lucky too to have such lovely pets. If only we could have more loving caring responsible owners like Liz and Patricia. Our thanks to them both for giving Tam and Jo a wonderful life.

We have lovely kittens again!

THIS IS A GORGEOUS BOY KITTEN WHO HAS LIVED IN A FOSTER HOME. IS FRIENDLY LITTER TRAINED, VACCINATED AND DOMESTICATED. IF YOU WOULD LOVE THIS LITTLE ONE THEN GIVE US A CALL HE NEEDS A FOREVER HOME. WE ALSO HAVE 2 TABBY KITTENS AND A LOVELY GREY AND WHITE FEMALE. PLEASE HELP THEM.

I AM PLEASED TO SAY THAT THIS LITTLE FELLOW HAS BEEN GIVEN A HOME BY A LOVELY YOUNG COUPLE WHO LIVE IN LARNAKA. THEY CAME ALL THE WAY OVER FROM LARNAKA TO COLLECT HIM. HE HAS SETTLED IN REALLY WELL AND LOVES SLEEPING ON THE SETTEE. HE IS NOW WARM AND SAFE. WE WISH HIM AND HIS NEW FAMILY ALL THE VERY BEST.

A happy Christmas to you all.

THIS IS A PICTURE OF ONE OF THE LUCKY DOGS THAT WE FOUND A HOME FOR IN GERMANY. HE NOW HAS A LOVELY FAMILY TO ENJOY CHRISTMAS WITH. SAVING FIDO WAS A JOINT EFFORT BY HIS FOSTER CARERS, PARC, CYDRA, AND OUR FRIENDS AND SUPPORTERS IN GERMANY. IT IS DIFFICULT TO KNOW HOW TO THANK ALL THE PEOPLE IN GERMANY THAT TAKE SO MANY DOGS AND CATS FROM US SAVING THEM FROM A VERY UNCERTAIN FUTURE.
FIDO WAS A YOUNG FRIGHTENED STARVING DOG WHEN HE WAS FOUND BY DIANE. IT IS LOVELY TO SEE HIM LOOKING SO HAPPY AND WELL. THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO HIS NEW OWNERS FOR KINDLY SENDING THIS LOVELY PICTURE AND TO EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTS THE ANIMAL WELFARE ORGANISATIONS TO HELP US TO HELP THESE DEAR ANIMALS IN NEED.
BLESS YOU ALL.

BLACK LABRADORS.

I HAVE HAD 2 SEPARATE REFERRALS ABOUT BLACK LABRADORS NEEDING A HOME. BOTH OF THEM ARE MALE AND YOUNG. ONE OF THEM HAS A BRITISH PASSPORT. ONE IS IN A FOSTER HOME AND THE OTHER ONE WILL BE TAKEN TO A DOG SHELTER BEFORE THE 30TH DECEMBER AS HIS OWNERS ARE LEAVING CYPRUS (THIS IS THE ONE WITH A BRITISH PASSPORT) PLEASE DONT ASK ME WHY HE CANT TRAVEL WITH THEM THESE DAYS IT IS THE 64000 DOLLAR QUESTION!!! IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN OFFERING A HOME TO A BLACK LABRADOR PLEASE TELEPHONE ME.

Another lucky dog re homed.

Lazarus travelled to his new home in Germany on Monday. Parc and Cydra were able to help this little dog because his caring owners gave us enough time to find him a good home. Every day we are getting referrals from people who are leaving cyprus in a couple of days or a week. We cant just take them in we are not a dog shelter. We need the owners to be able to hold on to them for at least a month while a home can be found and arrangements made. We are sure little Lazarus (now Cosmos) will have a wonderful home and a good life. Our thanks as always to Cydra it is good to know that by working together we can save so many dogs and cats.

Please help!

Hi, I was living behind a restaurant. I was cold and hungry. My mother had left me. The big cats were beating me up. A kind lady picked me up and took me to the Parc pens. I have lived there now for 3 weeks. I have other little baby kittens to keep me company now and Pam and Don feed us really good grub every day and play with us. This is the best!
Ruth said she is struggling to raise enough money to feed all the starving cats now and as it is Christmas Jo in the UK is having a Christmas Raffle to raise funds. Ruth asked for supporters to send 5 pounds if possible to Jo and she would enter you in the raffle. Even though it is Christmas Jo has had very little (thank you to Roy and Jen in Bristol who have bought lots). So I am writing today to say please please send a little to Jo for Parc.Perhaps you dont realise how important this is. All the visitors have left Cyprus now, all the hotels are shutting and all the ex pats are returning to the UK. Ruth is having a very hard time trying to meet the food bills she is opening a 30 Euro bag of food (20 kilos) every day now and still she needs more. Please help her to help kittens like me. Cheques can be made out to Jo she will register you in the draw. Unwanted prizes will be auctioned for Parc. Thank you from all the cats and kittens that Parc help.
