PEPA - Helping Hands

 

About Us (The Serious Side)

Every day we receive telephone calls asking for help. Sometimes we only need to answer a simple question, for example ‘What do we have to do to take our pet back to England?' Or, could we tell them if it is a good idea to allow their pet to sit near to a gas fire?

Other times our calls are from people who are near to despair, like the lady who rang and told us about a Podenco, with no food or water, held by a 2ft chain, 24 hours a day, having to defecate where he is standing. His owner coming once a week to leave some food.

Or, a passing traveller, on her way back to England, telling us about a very elderly lady living in squalor amongst the sand dunes surrounded by fifteen dogs, all thin and emaciated, some with raw sores and one dragging his legs, unable to stand, plus twenty or more feral cats and kittens.

Whatever the question we have a team of volunteers who are ready to listen and, wherever possible, to try to help.
