3 kittens were rescued and up for adoption

Waffle and Syrup and Tea

Syrup is a female ginger and white kitten about 4 months old. Also a little shy but can be held and loves a head rub.


Tea is a female ginger and white kitten about 2 months old. Also a little shy but can be held.

please contact adoptions@animalstaiwan.org or call 02-28338820 if you are interested in adopting one of these little girls.

Violet needs a permanent/temporary home.

Hi everyone, my name is Violet. I have a spine malformation, which means I can't walk properly. I most surely would have died had I not been rescued from the side of the road. The vet believes that with the aid of a wheelchair, which Animals Taiwan will get for me, I'll build up muscles and strengthen my spine. I'm a loving two-month-old little girl and all I want in life is to be loved. Could you be that special person? Please contact Animals Taiwan at 02-28338820 or email inquiries@animalstaiwan.org to find out more about me.

Hucky

Animals Taiwan Aug report.

August has been a very fulfilling month with many adoptions and lots going on. We are still preparing for our first ever Gala Ball and have been overwhelmed with the support from our sponsors.


Also our TNR projects have been in full swing. We are now working with many volunteers and vets around the Taipei area and what’s more the government is now starting to listen and see how successful we are.

We’ve continued helping the Ping Shi shelter and have had great success with adoptions from there.

We’ve also started an online flea market on our facebook page where everyone can see our items for sale and get great bargains while helping the needy animals.

Adoptions and Fostering

We’ve had a total of 13 successful adoptions this month and hope to continue this great momentum.

We’ve had many puppies come into the centre recently from CNR projects and from various other rescues.

Rome and Naples are from the CNR project last month in Hsin Tien and have now found loving homes.

Surf is one of the four puppies dumped on our doorstep one hot morning. He has now been adopted into a loving home.

Soybean the last puppy from the Mucha drain pipe rescue has finally found a loving mum and it means that everyone at AT still gets to see her. Our staff member ShiTing has adopted Soybean and they are inseparable.

East, one of the four puppies from another CNR project in Hsin Tien has also found a loving home. We hope his brothers and sisters are going to be as lucky.

We are so happy to report that Foxy and A-Mei two of our longer term doggies have been adopted. We were worried about Foxy because although she is beautiful and a small breed dog, she is very shy and nervous around people. However, finally a loving family who are willing to look past this have taken her home. She’s doing much better and now comes to sit by her new mommy.

Ninja, who was brought out of the Ping Shi shelter found a new home within 7 days. He’s a very loving boy and we knew he’d find a home quickly.

Everyone was sad and happy to see A-Mei go to her new home. A-Mei has been the star of many of our events and everyone who comes to our centre gets a kiss and a cuddle from her. She has finally found her forever home and is doing great.

Two of the cats that we brought down from the Ping Shi shelter were adopted quite quickly. Danish the ginger and white boy and Bibi the smaller white Persian. Both have gone to loving homes and can finally get the attention and love they deserve.

Little Nami is the first of the 4 little black kittens to be adopted into a loving home and w hope her brothers and sisters will also find loving homes soon.

We’re also really happy that two of our adult cats, Ningbau and Peanut found loving homes.

We are always happy to report adoptions and it gives us the drive to push harder and try to find homes for all our loving furry friends. Many people over look the adult cats and dogs as they don’t think they will be as easy to train or adapt to a new home. This isn’t true, given the chance all our furry friends will adapt quickly and be more than willing to get some training. All they need is love.

On the fostering front we are happy to report that Julian, one of our wheelchair dogs, has been taken into foster care by one of our board of directors. Julian was having problems with his legs and needed more one on one care. He has already started to put on weight and is zooming around his new home showing his new foster brothers and sisters how fast he can go.

Rescues 救援

A feeding lady near our centre was feeding the dogs one morning when Awang, one of the dogs she feeds run out of the bushes and straight into the road. He as badly hit by a car and was in terrible pain. The feeding lady didn’t know how to handle the situation as this dog has a reputation of not being so friendly, so she called us. We went out and managed to catch Awang without too much trouble. After a vet check up it was found that he had a broken spine and wouldn’t be able to use his back legs. He has had treatment and now has a new BMW wheelchair. It took him some time to get used to the chair but finally he’s now on the mend. He spent most of August with us and now the feeding lady has taken him back and will continue to look after him.

A supporter of Animals Taiwan found 4 little kittens in a box dumped on the side of the road. Vivi, Nami, Zoro and Luffy were very small and needed help with feeding. The rescuers took them in and helped them until they were able to eat by themselves. Then they were brought to our centre for adoption. Nami has already gone to a loving home.

One morning our neighbours came running over to our centre to let us know that 4young puppies had been dumped on our doorstep. It was a hot August morning and the puppies had no shade, food or water. We did catch the lady on camera dumping the puppies on our doorstep and we have reported her to the authorities. It was irresponsible of her to do this and endangered the puppies’ lives. Luckily, they were ok and we found them quickly. Flash, Charlotte, Little Cotton are doing well. Surf has already been adopted.

We got a call from a volunteer about 3 puppies in the mountains where she goes for her morning walk. She informed us that one of the puppies couldn’t walk properly and was dragging her back legs. We set off out to find her and it took quite awhile driving round the mountains. Eventually, we found the spot and got out of the car and called. Violet made a whining sound and we rushed to the bush to find her. She let us pick her up and quickly gave us a kiss. After the vet examined her it was found that she has a malformed spine, either from birth or she was hit by a car or something very early on in life. As the spine isn’t broken she still has feeling in her back legs and can move them, she’s just unable to stand up. The vet feels that with the help of a sling and a wheelchair she’ll start to build muscles in her legs and her spine should start to straighten out. She’s already looking much better and wants nothing more than cuddles.

This month we took two dogs and a kitten from the Ping Shi shelter.

Ninja, small white dog, who is very friendly and playful, got adopted within 7 days of being at our centre. He’s now very happy in his new home getting the love and attention he craves.

Hucky, brown Husky, will be flying to Seattle in September. We decided to take her out of the shelter and send her to America as Taiwan is not the right climate for a Husky and she was learning bad habits being in the shelter. Huskies need a lot of exercise and also mental stimulation which she wasn’t getting at the shelter. She’s off to an animal behaviourist in Seattle where she’ll receive training before finding a loving new home.

We also took a little kitten, Joker, as there isn’t much chance of this kitten being adopted while being in the mountains at the Ping Shi shelter.

Shorty was brought to our centre after being caught during a TNR project. She’s friendly and has a chance to find a good home. Unfortunately she has FIV; however, this won’t stop us persevering to find a loving home for her.

While in the Tiamue mountains on a CNR project we came across a mother and 8 puppies. We realized that these little boys and girls wouldn’t survive long in the mountains so we decided to take them in to find them new homes. One of our wonderful volunteers and supporters has taken them in and has already found homes for 4of them. We have our fingers crossed that the rest of them will find loving homes soon.

A little kitten now named Cha-cha was found under a car. He had many wounds on his body and was found to have bad diarrhoea and malnourished. After receiving treatment Chacha recovered fully and has already found a forever home.

Finally some bad news, a little kitten was rescued after a bad car accident. He was taken to a vet immediately, but his injuries were too severe and he was in a lot of pain with not much chance of recovery. The vet suggested that we let this little boy pass on as the pain was too great for him. We hope he is now happy and without pain.

CNR/TNR 捕捉-結紮-原地放回

As we’ve already mentioned our TNR project in Taipei is fully underway, in July 156cats were captured, neutered and returned to their feeding areas. August is looking as though it will surpass these numbers. So far since April 388 cats have been caught. We will be continuing this project and keeping the government updated on the progress and data received.

We also caught 2 female and 1 male dogs from the Tiamue mountain where there are many stray dogs.

Animals Taiwan July News letter

Animals Taiwan July News letter

As in true Taiwanese style the weather is continuing to be hot! Hot! Hot! But this isn’t slowing us down. Usually during the summer months adoptions slow down as people are away on vacation and prefer to wait until they are back and settled to make decisions on adopting, but we have had a success month of adoptions and with the new arrival of Mary on our adoption team we hope for even more good news as the months continue.

During June we were informed about a shelter run by an older lady in the Ping Shi mountains. This lady has over 150 dogs and over 50 cats. We went to take a look around and see how we could help her. She has a good set up in the mountains, it’s clean and she takes good care of the dogs which are all vaccinated, chipped and spayed or neutered.

However, we are concerned about the cats. Many of the cats were supposed to be TNR cats, but this lady didn’t have the heart to release them. Now on first impressions of this you would think that this is a good thing for the cats. However, many of these cats are feral and don’t like to be kept in cages with other cats. They have lived their lives in the wild and much prefer it this way.

Also the lady keep all the cats in large pens, again which sounds good, but this increases the chance of the spread of disease and of fighting. Because none of the cats were tested before being put into the main population, many of them have various diseases and they are spreading. We have already taken out 5 cats, two of which have FIV and one schnauzer.

We are helping advertise a few of the other more adoptable dogs as well. We have decided to continue to work with this lady and help her as much as possible, with food, education and of course adoption. It is a strain on our financial position but we can’t turn our backs on these animals. Once we have animals going out of the centre we will go and collect animals from her whether it be cats or dogs. All will be tested first and then assessed for adoption.

Rescues
While completing the CNR project in the Hsin Tien mountains we came across a female dog with 3 puppies. Once we caught the mother we decided to take her and her puppies to the centre. The mother was spayed and then stayed at the centre for 3 weeks while the puppies where being weaned. The mother wasn’t comfortable at the centre so we decided to release her back to her Aixian mama in the mountains. However, we kept the puppies. The three puppies are doing well and are playful and healthy. One of the puppies has already been adopted and we hope the other two will soon follow to happy loving homes. We named them Rome, Naples and Florence.

Also in the same mountain area while doing CNR we noticed a male Red Poodle. He let us catch him and we noticed how malnourished he was and covered from head to toe with ticks. We immediately got him medical attention and tested. He tested negative and was deemed to be healthy. However, the poor boy only had one ball, which was removed, but in the future we have to watch for any problems. He’s been named Ronald and he’s up for adoption. He’ll need a patient family as he has food protection issues from living outside for so long.

A friend of Animals Taiwan called us up about 3 kittens dumped in a box by the riverside. She was very concerned about them and normally would have taken them in and fostered them. However, she was leaving for Canada in a few days and wouldn’t be back for 2 months. So we decided to take in the two month old kittens. All are healthy and very playful. We named them Twinkle, Clint and Eastwood (we were watching a Clint Eastwood movie ;-) All have been successfully adopted.

Another Red Poodle this time female was seen wandering the streets, she was taken in to be fostered and very quickly found a new loving home.

Another kitten was rescued after getting stuck in a building. We couldn’t find her mother of any of her siblings. We named her Angel and she’s very sweet and shy. She is at the centre waiting for that loving home.

Nono was taken from the Ping Shi shelter. She’s a female Schauzer and very calm and loving. We knew she’d find a home quickly if she was in a place where people could visit her. She was snapped up in 7 days.

Suri, Darius, Bibi, Casper and Danish are the 5 cats we took from the Ping Shi shelter. Four of them are Persian cats and all of them are loving and friendly and just need the chance to been seen. Unfortunately Suri and Darius have FIV. This is not too much of a problem for adoption as long as the new family doesn’t have other cats. We hope these loving cats can finally have the special care and attention they deserve.

A black Shiba Inu was found by a pet store with serious skin problems. She was taken to the vets for a check up and a chip scan and we were happy when we found a chip. However, the chip was never registered which means we have no way of finding the owners. We have put up lost and found posters and posted on lost and found websites. We’ll wait a couple of weeks to see if anyone comes forward, if not then She’ll be up for adoption and we hope she can finally be in a loving home.

CNR/TNR

We are having continued success with our TNR program in the Taipei area. The volunteers are working hard to catch the cats and once they are spayed or neutered safely return them to their feeding stations.

We have nearly completed the CNR program in both Hsin Tien areas. During July we caught over 20 dogs of which more than 15 were female. All have been released back and are doing well. We still have a couple more females and males to catch in these areas. However, because now the free clinic is closed we are in desperate need of funding for the spay and neuter operations. We want to continue and make sure the areas are 100% and we can only do this with funding.

While trying to catch the dogs in the Hsin Tien area, we have accidentally caught 4 cats which have gone into our dog traps. We have taken these cats for spay and neutering and they have also been safely returned. However, one was deemed too sick to be spayed and is staying with us until she is recovered.

Adoptions and Fostering
There has been a total of nine adoption/tryouts this month and we’re very excited and pleased about everyone of them.

All three kittens found by the river have been adopted into different loving homes. We know they will give their new owners much joy and love.

Sunny the shy little ginger kitten was adopted together with Clint so she’ll have a brother to show her the ropes on being a playful kitten.

Jackbean was actually the first to go out, our brave, talkative little ginger male. He’s happily letting his new owner know how much he loves him.

Florence one of the rescued puppies from the mountains where we are doing CNR was also quickly adopted out. We have our fingers crossed that her two brothers will also be quickly adopted.

We are so happy that our little Yatou the elderly Maltese has also gone to a loving home and we have had reports from her new mom that she’s doing wonderfully.

5 kittens waiting for loving homes~

Purrr! My name is Bibi and I'm a white Persian male cat. I'm very affectionate and love nothing more than rubbing against you and sitting on your lap. I've lived a harder life living in a shelter in the mountains with many many other cats. It wasn't clean and there was never any attention given to us. Now I've been rescued and i really hope that i can finally find a loving home where i can purr to my hearts content.Call 02-28338820 or email adoptions@animalstaiwan.org if you are interested in meeting me.




Hello! I'm Casper and as you can see I'm a big white Persian male. Don't let my size scare you, I'm a bundle of love. I'm very laid back and would love to just hang with you. Like the other Persian i was taken from a shelter in the mountains, it was dirty and i never got any rest as there were so many cats. I'm now hoping for a quiet home, where i can hang out and relax with my new family. Call 02-28338820 or email adoptions@animalstaiwan.org if you are interested in meeting me.






Hey there! I'm Danish and I'm a big orange and white tom cat. I'm so affectionate you wouldn't believe it. All i want in life is to be loved, stroked and cuddled. I've been stuck in a shelter where it was dirty and crowded. I've finally gotten out and loving being clean. Now all i need is a loving family. Please don't be put off by my size, I'm really cute and cuddly.Call 02-28338820 or email adoptions@animalstaiwan.org if you are interested in meeting me.





Hello! I'm Suri, and I'm a beautiful Tabby Persian female. I'm very sweet and very quiet. I'm clam and relaxed too. I really want to finally find a loving home as I've been stuck in a dirty crowded shelter for a very long time. Finally I'm clean and can find a wonderful home. However, there is a little problem, I have FIV, which is feline AIDS. I'm still very healthy and i will live for a long time, but it means i can only live in a house with other FIV cats. I hope you will forgive me for my misfortune and still give me a chance.Call 02-28338820 or email adoptions@animalstaiwan.org if you are interested in meeting me.




5. I'm big boy Darius and I'm a beautiful Tabby Persian. I'm a little naughty sometimes and can be a little temperamental, but left to my own devices i love to explore and chat. Unfortunately i have been stuck in an overcrowded dirty shelter in the mountains for many years and during this time i contracted FIV, which is feline AIDS. I'm still very healthy and i will live for a long time, but it means i can only live in a house with other FIV cats. i hope you can look past this and see the beautiful cat who just wants to be loved. Call 02-28338820 or email adoptions@animalstaiwan.org if you are interested in meeting me.
