Lana, a vet based in Riyadh needs your help. She runs a not for profit making charity in Riyadh. She neuters/spays street/compound cats and either returns them when possible or re-homes them.
She has to use her villa as a cat/kitten re-homing centre at the moment as the premises she was hoping to open has fallen through.

1, Do you know of anyone that can sponsor Lana to open a re-homing centre? Local phillanthropists warmly welcomed lol

2, Could you volunteer a morning or afternoon on a regular basis to work with the animals at her villa?

Please check out the Open Paws web site www.OpenPaws.org
or contact Lana at her email address help@openpaws.org

Come on people I know there are lots of animal lovers out there looking for things to do. Please help with this very worthwhile charity. I do two mornings a week and the payback is enormous as I get to help socialise the cats and kittens with lots of play and cuddles.

Thanks for your indulgence in reading this, Please get those fingers clicking on the web site and contact Lana.

Very happy to help out....once I arrive. I have emailed her about my interest. Thanks for sharing this with us. Those of us who are pet lovers and not able to bring out animals with us will probably find this very therapeutic.
