From my ongoing series of animals that live in a German animal shelter...

After the number of stray cats in an allotment garden colony had gotten out of hand, the animal welfare was notified and asked to pick up the cats. The shelter caught all the cats with live-traps, neutered them, vaccinated them and, if necessary, provided medical care. Since the cats had little human contact, they are very shy and difficult to place. It would have been better if the garden owners had taken care of the cats much earlier, before they multiplied so much.

The intention of my posts is not to find people that adopt those pets. This German animal shelter accepts only local adoptions and has a very good placement rate. My intention is to raise awareness for all those beautiful pets in the shelters out there waiting for you to be their hero. Go to your nearest animal shelter to find your new pet. Adopt! Don't shop!
