Dear All
This is my fifth week helping to rescue the
animal victims of the floods. Today our team still
works in the areas of Nonthaburi and
Pratumtani, province and the floods keep chasing
us. Water level rise up high every day.
Our team has rescue between 50- 100 animal a day,
someday working from early until after midnight
trying to save lives if we can. What I have learned
and experience from my past week is hard to take -
seeing the horrible picture of animals died all
around.
The most tragedy we have seen are the big houses
in the land and house projects that owners
have left the animals dying and suffering.
Some of our team can’t go to rescue when we have
heard screaming from the dogs who call us for
help.
We saw dogs have a couple inches to breath before
the head can reach the top of their cage. Some of
them already die, mostly we can’t open the cage
because they have been locked.
We can help and manage to lift the cage higher
though some cages have build cemented to the floor
and it make our work are very difficult to remove
the trapped dogs. The situation are still risky as
of the flood waters are still rising.
We would like all of those who have helped to
spread this message to the animal lovers to help us
to call and ask for the owner of pets stuck in the
flood areas. Please come back home to save them .
I would like the pet owner to remember that if
any of you understand te term “Mans Best Friend"
then you should value and return their loyalty
Many house owner have argue with us that they now
move to stay at the hotel and pets are not allowed.
In this situation if you love you animal and as I
work in the field I would like all will help to save
the animal life Please attention for this
message:
1 ) Please try to go back your place and bring
your animal out or take them to stay at you second
floor give space for them to move, provide them with
enough food and water.
At the moment I have report from many house owner
who have the problem with thieves stealing their
belongings at their home and residence, your
dog will be the best guard to look after you home,
please release them free in the house and make the
trip to visit them often as you can .
2) if they stay in the cage release them out
immediately, if you need hand to help please call
our team , to help to move your animal, but during
we work we need the dog owner to be with us.
3) If your pet is sick we can help to provide the
vet to look after your animals on emergency and
after that you have to bring your pet to get full
treatment required.
4) For any house with one floor and no place to
keep your pet, we can provide temporary place for
your animal free of charge and we expect you to have
them back them back after the flood have gone
