Where donations go...
- One months salary for medic 7,500 rs (approx £100)
- One months salary for kennel boy 4,500 rs (approx £60)
- Sponsoring a dog for one year £100 (approx £8 a month)
- Dog biscuits (which we can't buy at the moment) a big bag is about 1,200 rs (£15) so is considered a luxury. We need at least 2 bags a month just to give dogs a handful each morning (cat biscuits cost even more so we hardly ever buy them, they are normally donated if ever)
- Rabies vaccination £1.50 each
- Combination vaccine £7 each (only private dogs get this when we are low on funds and it protects against 7 common illnesses which puppies are particularly prone to like parvo and distemper. If we dont give it to animals in the centre and one gets sick they all do so it's really crucial.
- Sterilizing an animal 1,500 rs (approx £20) plus travel if we have to take to the vet (he wont come to us unless we have a minimum of 10 animals and we can't afford our own vet)
- We can't buy meat waste like before as the new centre is near a temple, so no beef and no pork, we have to buy chicken, which is more expensive (approx £100 a month at the moment)
- We also have to buy fish and milk every day, £3 a day £21 a week, £85 a month
- We also have petrol costs and van maintenance plus general shopping (cleaning products etc)
- Vet visit 1,500rs £20 plus travel and medicine costs
- Our own medical bills vary from month to month but approx 3000-4000rs (£45-£60)
- All animals sleep o then floor if house dogs or in acage with one layer of newspaper unless we have donated blankets/towels etc (we buy used newspapers 4rs per kg) about £8 a month.
Animals we have helped...
This adorable puppy is still at the centre and looking for a home. She was found in a local restaurant and the owners were going to get rid of her so we took her in. We're surprised she's not been adopted yet but unfortunately male dogs are preferred as pets.
Choti was shot in the eye. We tried to save the eye but unfortunately he had to have it removed by our vetinary nurse. He now has a happy home with his adoptive owner Stephanie.
