Zorro is all grown up!

Just to update you on Zorro who celebrated his 1st Birthday recently.

Zorro is now very firmly the man about the house and lets my boyfriend know. He has become the housing estate’s favourite resident particularly amoung children who all know him by name and want him to join in their fun and games. As this picture shows Zorro or should i say Snorro really enjoyed the snow of last winter.

Some successful detective work

April 6th, 2010

Some good news…. In an earlier post we asked for help finding Ruth’s Golden Lab… One of our volunteers spotted a dog at a local animal shelter today and contacted Ruth to have a look at his picture…. It was Jasper and he is now safe and sound back at home with his family in Boyle approx a month after he got lost!

    About

    Charity Number:
    CHY 18790

    roscommonanimals.com is the online home of Roscommon SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals). We are a non-profit organisation run by people who volunteer their time. We look out for the care and protection of animals in County Roscommon.

    We believe that animals should have

    * Freedom from hunger, thirst and malnutrition

    * Freedom from discomfort

    * Freedom from disease and injury

    * Freedom to behave normally

    * Freedom from distress and fear

     

    Many thanks to the Department of Agriculture, from whom we have just received a generous grant of 10,000 euro (Dec. 2009), we are indeed very grateful for this. Without that money the Society would not be able to cope. We have received a grant from the Department for the past few years. Unfortunately though, we still have to do a huge amount of fundraising in order to keep going. We use private boarding kennels for the rescued dogs, and this, and vet bills cost a lot of money.
