animal shelters?

Postby MariaEvri » Sat Apr 25, 2009 11:33 am

are there any shelters in Limassol (or not) that will take in injured animals? I happen to find a lot of animals (bats, crows, a pigeon lately) and I dont know what to do with them

I have been there as well. There is a place in Pahos called Paphiakos that seems to take in absolutely any stray or injured animal taken there.

www.cyprusanimalwelfare.org

However, those in the know say that they resort to euthanasia very liberally there, and this is why they are always able to accomodate new arrivals. The choice is yours.

thank you
I will keep the place in mind, although I hate when shelters use euthanasia.

Maria, I can tell you now the pigeon and crows will not last the night wherever you take them. Both are still classed as vermin and genrally treated as such. The pigeon would probably be cooked for dinner.

I thought animal shelters provided shelter for animals
of all species
But I guess this is Cyprus so I cant expect much

You can't make the first black president a one-termer, eh? Talk about anti-climax... :lol:

I do think you know I was referring to Bush though...
