Simba, Momo and Philippo in their new homes - update

With the RRCI (Italian rhodesian ridgeback Club) we express our grattitude to everybody who tried to help and called for the homeless ridgies. Simba found his home some time ago and stayed in Italy. He lives with Rob, Pauline and their dog Nell and feels great.  His sister Asia also feels better. The former owner Anna is now able to dedicate herself fully to her sparkling and strong personality and they have made great progress together.

Momo is now a slovenian citizen. He moved to a wonderful place called Kostanjevica na Krki. He gets along great with his new owner Aleš, and Momo keeps him company even at work. I will visit them soo (I can`t wait!), so more news to come later on. Here is one of the numerous pictures Aleš has sent me of Momo in his new home.

Finding a home for Philippo was tough. Everybody who was involved in the rehoming, including me, were sad by the fact, that all the phone calls were for the playful and lively Momo and nobody asked for Philippo. I am not sure, maybe it was more difficult because of his age. But at last the hopes evolved into facts also for the poor Philippo. A family from Germany came to pick him up finally from the shelter where he was really really sad.

A big thanks again to everybody! We did it together!

Is there anybody who can help us find new homes for these two ridgies?

Friends from the Italian Rhodesian Ridgeback Club (RRCI) have asked me for help. We have two rhodesian ridgeback to rehome: the 14 month old Momo and almost four years old Philippo. momo-sh.JPG

Momo is just over a year old rhodesian ridgeback. His owner got terminally ill, is in the hospital and, sadly, will never come back home again. Momo was placed in a shelter, but soon afterwards an owner`s relative showed up and took him home. Unfortunatelly she is not able to keep him permanently. Momo currently spends his day in her backyard and nights in the garage. He is confused, sad and need a friend to relate to, someone to be happy with, as soon as possible!

Philippo is almost four years old, castrated and homeless because of a new baby in the family. He got jelaous and the owners couldn`t cope with it anymore. He ended up in a shelter. He is of a stable but strong temperament and he needs an experienced person who will accept him and include him in the family. For more information please contact me.

The kittens in their new homes - and for us, something to think about…sterilization and castration

We made a great effort to find new homes for the abandoned kittens. They surely made our days brighter, since they were playing all the time around the house. Even though we got quite attached to them, we knew all the time, that thay would one day soon leave us to move to new homes, since our household already consists of two dogs and two cats.

I will take this opportunity to remind you all, that there are so many, too many abbandoned kittens around! Preberite več »

Abandoned kittens looking for a home

pict0015.JPGpict0005.JPG

We found two abandoned kittens a few days ago. Somebody threw them by the road in a rural area. They were frightened. WE tried to offer them some water and food first, then we caught them and took them home with us. They are currently enlarging our patry of 4 four legged animal household temporarely by 2 members more. I have to admit, they are very funny. And it is obvious, that they lived so far in a close contact with humans, as they love to be petted.

I urge everybody, who read these words, to contact me, if you know of anyboy, who would take the kittens. Thank you!

He lives with his sister Asia, but the owner is not able to cope alone anymore with both of them at the same time. Simba is lively and friendly, but he is a true teenager and he needs also loving but firm discipline. If you are interested, please contact me.
