CAS Sponsorship Programme
The Costa Animal Society ( CAS ) is excited to announce our new initiative of sponsoring a specific animal in our care . Given the restrictions regarding the Cornoavirus , fundraising has become extremely difficult . For example , our annual dog show Scruffs is not possible this October , our best event of the year .
Now however you can sponsor one of our dogs or cats directly for either € 25 for six months or € 45 for a year . You will receive Ecards on their birthdays and at Christmas and there will be options via our websiste and Facebook page for sponsors to contact us to check in on their chosen animal . If your sponsored dog or cat is adopted before the time limit , you can can choose another animal to be informed about . Sponsorships can also be purchased as gifts .
For more information , feel free to contact us at our shop ( 643 625 334 ) or see us online at www . casnerja . webs . com or Facebook page \ casnerja
Featured Dog of the Month
Bud has been in kennels for about two years , which is a shame because he is a good natured dog who loves people and gets along well with other dogs but cannot live with cats . In fact , this is why he was brought to CAS in the first place . He used to live with a couple who had several other dogs and many cats but , unfortunately , Bud killed one of the cats .
Bud is about five years old and in good health with perhaps minor arthritis in one of his front paws . He is used to living in a house and used to sleep on the bed with his owners and he would love nothing more than to live with someone in a home again . We think he is a Malamute cross ( with perhaps Mastin ) but more Alsatian in size at around 40 kilos . Bud is a really sweet dog who deserves another chance .
If you would like to meet one of the animals under CAS ’ s care and are looking to adopt or are willing to foster a pet please contact Kurt and

CAS Cat News
CAS is as equally concerned about the welfare of the homeless cat population as about the dogs we rescue and rehome . Regarding cats our primary focus is to capture feral cats and have them sterilized so six new kittens don ’ t arrive a few weeks later .
We are lucky to have a few private volunteers who engage in these efforts , often at their own expense . One such volunteer , the legendary Gaynor , recently found four adorable abandoned kittens , too young to neuter who are now available for adoption . They are very gentle and tame but still quite timid . There are three tri-colours , all girls , and a mainly white boy with tabby patches . They are all about 12 weeks old and now treated against fleas and worms , vaccinated and in foster care .
Life on the streets for a homeless cat is one of constant danger and a tireless quest for food and shelter . If you would like to be part of our team helping to shepherd these lovely animals from the mean streets to loving , forever homes contact Fiona via costaanimalsociety @ gmail . com . You can also make a financial contribution earmarked for the cat account . For more information regarding cats available for fostering or adoption see the Facebook page \ East of Malaga kitttens or cats / Gatitos de la Axarquia .
