Thank you Whiskers N Paws and all donors |
It's taking a while to get back into the swing of things and for people to return from their holidays judging from how quiet the roads are, so I took advantage of the lull to pick up the donations from Operation Santa Paws that were waiting at Whiskers N Paws. After sorting through the boxes everything was divided between the Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre, Tai Po and Lamma, so thank you to everyone who contributed to this Christmas appeal.

A classic Hong Kong view for Darcy |
There was one adoption to kick off the New Year as Yorkshire terrier Violet officially became Darcy in her forever home. She had been on a trial for a couple of weeks, as coming from a breeder she had a lot of adjustments to make after years in a cage. It's just the best feeling seeing these scared dogs blossom into happy and confident personalities.

Life's a picnic now for Violet-Darcy |

Happy couples at Ap Lei Chau |
We still have a lot of small ex-breeder dogs at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre, and while they are happy with what they have - which is a dream compared to their previous situation - we're looking forward to seeing them move on to real family homes. It would be even better if those who have tight bonds with their four-legged friends could stay together, like the King Charles cavaliers William and Harry or shih tzus Gavin and Dolly.
I was really hoping to be able to make an announcement about a new Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre location, but we have come to a standstill on that and it seems to be permanent. There are alternatives so all is not lost, but I did jump the gun in assuming that it was a done deal on this one shop.
