We visited the Gouves animal shelter yesterday and could not support their mission more. Looking after hundreds of dogs and cats that come to them through injury, illness or threat, the shelter rehabilitate and aim to adopt these animals abroad where they stand a better chance for a good life. Given the Covid environment you need to let them know you are coming ahead of time. When we arrived we were shown around and told stories of some of the dogs and how they came to be there. We wanted to take them all home, but it was good to hear that many or them had been reserved and would soon be transported, freeing up more space. Please visit and give generously.
I have found an ill kitten one day before we finished our holidays and i took to my hotel room and brought he the next morning to the Vet. As i could not forget the little one i contacted from the Airport Gouves Shelter to ask if it is possible to adopte and they promissed to get in contact with the Vet. The answer came very quick, when i arrived 3 hours later in Switzerland i had alredy an answer. They wrote me that it is possible to do an adoption to Switzerland. I was so happy! Then i got an adress of a Volonteer. She wrote me that she will go to the doctor the next Monday and send me some phots and videos of the kitty, because I forgot. After my holidays i opened extra an Facebook account to get in contact with the volonteer. I waited till saturday before i contacted Gouves Shelter directly because any reaction of the volonteer. I understand if there could be an emergency, thats why i waited almost one week. Shelter motivated me to contact again the volonter and wrote me that the kitten is still at the vet and she has made some photos. So i got in contact with her again via WhatsApp. For that reason i deactivated my Facebookaccount the same day i contacted Gouves Shelter, because i was one week without answer on my facebook. (Maybe she wrote to another person, named the same name as me, but she should have checked) As i contacted the volonteer via Whats App she wrote me that the kitten is well and is placed now in Greece, the same day. At the beginning no answer and then it went so quick???? Strange!!! I am so disappointed about the different information and the chaos they made. It seems to me that they never wanted to help me, only in case they found no foster in Greece. I WILL NEVER GO TO GREECE AGAIN. THEY DON'T APPRECIATE FOREIGN HELP AND IT IS SO NECESSARY THERE. MY HEART IS BROKEN THERE ABOUT SO MANY POOR ANIMALS.
AVOID VISITING BETWEEN 11am AND 2pm ! -feeding time when Dogs are most restless ! It's an animal shelter. Lots of dogs need cuddles and walks. It's best to arrange in advance (via email) before visiting, but if you are passing by no harm in popping along to see if you can help. They are in need of volunteers.
Worked here as a volunteer for 1,5 week, and even though it was hard and it literally cost me blood- sweat and tears, it was totally worth it. I'll definitely be back next year for a longer period!! And please, if you're thinking about getting a (nother) dog, please consider adopting one!! Adopt, don't shop!!!
They do an awesome work. We brought them a bag full of towels and blankets from our old dog. They even let us help by walking 2 of their dogs and treating the small ones by cuddling and earning up their cages. The world needs more stuff like this.
