The aim of the WEBSITE is to provide readers with various articles some serious some humorous so that there is something of interest for everyone. We have found since moving here from the South of Spain that there is a lack of places to promote and advertise any business you may have. We are therefore offering this WEBSITE as a solution.

We welcome any suggestions of what you would like to see in the WEBSITE. Any articles of local interest or details of upcoming events can be submitted.

IT IS NOT A MIRACLE BUT IT SEEMS LIKE ONE.
Carmen and Anna of ARCA animal refuge have driven to Carrefour every day apart from Sundays to buy water to clean the kennels and water for the dogs for TWO AND A HALF years ,now after all that time they finally have the water and electricity connected, Carmen once said to me Mave it will never happen, they are so happy, it is wonderful to see them so excited about it, this was made possible by Matthew and Debbie of The Olive Press, they persevered and found the right organisation to make this happen. Carmen and Anna cannot thank them enough,they also want to thank Lesley and John Cottingham for donating an automatic washing machine,and Doreens husband Peter Gallaway for doing all the plumbing and donating the sink and kitchen units, a Spanish couple have donated a new water heater, so now when the vets return from Holland to do the next spay and neutering project they will be very happy to find the conditions for them to work in so much better. Once again many many thanks to Matthew and Debbie. OH. by the way, after telling a gentleman about this at the Bar Estacion , he asked if he adopted 6 or more dogs from ARCA, could Matthew and Debbie get the electricity and water on at his finca in the campo. now THAT WOULD BE A MIRACLE.
Thanks, Mave and all from ARCA

URGENT ADOPTION REQUIRED CALLED ARCA TODAY

A.R.C.A. (Association for Refuge and Taking care of the Animals) it is a non-profit association operating since the summer of year 2001. It is dedicated to protect and to defend the abandoned animals.

They are a small number of volunteers who try to protect the well-being of the dogs and look after them until they can find a home for them.

They try to make sure that they are adopted and they obtain the best possible home.

Also they want to make people more responsible for the animals so that the quantity of abandonments is reduced. They also micro chip the dogs and sterilize them .

At this moment they have 300 left dogs.

They are in Tortosa in the province of Tarragona (Spain). But it does not matter where they come from nor the distance as the dogs need aid and the best aid is that they have shelter and food.

All the material aid comes from the donations, thanks to them we can survive but with each new arrival the more donations are needed. If you want  to donate to Arca  if only by 5 € each month, minimum, please send an e-mail with your personal data and account number or call or write. Or just become a volunteer to help with the dogs.

NOW HOMED-These two puppies have been abandoned in the last two weeks. The one on the right is a female and the fluffy one is a male. They are about nine weeks old and will be quite big dogs. Unfortunately, due to their size, if homes are not found in the next few weeks they are likely to be with us for life! They are very friendly and used to people and are wormed and vaccinated. It's not their fault their mum's owner was irresponsible! Please help them.

If you are interested in these or any other dog please phone:
