Save Stray Cats and dogsin Ajman/ Sharjah -UAE/ Rescue Group

Deals with the problem of overpopulation of homeless cats and dogs. But, unlike many other countries, it is twice as difficult to solve the overpopulation  problem here. During our time spent in animal rescue work, we noticed that this is mainly due to various misconceptions regarding Spay/ Neuter (or Sterilization), which is the only humane solution to the problem of overpopulation. So, when a pet has an unwanted litter, people dump the pet and the litter on the road to starve and die. The ones who survive against all odds, are who we call strays/ street dogs.

When water puddles dry up during the summer –  birds are known to collapse from dehydration . Also clay pots are unlikely to be stolen if used in public places for stray animals.Do place bowls of water wherever possible. Even if you don’t like birds, this is the cheapest and most convenient way to do your bit for the environment.
