It's an unusual charity, for several good reasons. First, it exists to succeed in achieving one clear goal, nothing less than... Ending the Number Two Cause of Animal Suffering and Death in the World: Animal Overpopulation. Second, ending this problem -- in our lifetime. Third, also ending the following seven sub-problems: The world-wide needless death of 55,000 people every year -- people who die after being bitten by stray, diseased dogs infected with rabies. Most are children. The loss of $2 billion to $8 billion in taxes every year, spent by health departments in the The world-wide routine violent killing of over one billion wild and domestic animals every year. Managing eight to nine million dogs and cats who are abandoned each year, and killing the four to five million of them who do not get adopted, in the The often barbaric mass killings of hundreds of thousands of stray dogs in other countries each year. The global daily suffering from hunger, starvation, disease, infections and injuries, of up to 600 million stray dogs -- and of up to 100 million stray cats in the U.S. alone. Last but not least: Ending the number-one problem of, and the number-one expense of, the world's tens of thousands of non-profit humane societies and animal shelters, and municipal dog pounds. All of the above, in a single project. How? By being creative, thinking outside the box and expediting the development of long lasting animal birth control pills. Amazingly, the problems above can be ended with the development of pills that last at least six months per dose. There are over 100 already know birth control pills and injections. Some injections last up to 10 years, and at least one produces permanent sterility with a single dose. As long as 30 years ago, the drug industry has had birth control pills for dogs that last one to seven days. Oddly, they have never "gotten around" to modifying any of those pills to last 180 days (six months). This, we intend to change. For example, did you know that often one pill works for many species? If this were a foot ball game, it could be said that "We are at the 99 yard line, and we only have one yard to go, to reach victory." Please visit our website to have your many good questions answered and to see in detail 10 major reasons why this project is unique, exciting, and inspiring. Please join us in ending a vast amount of needless suffering, in our lifetime. There is much to be done and if you wish, you can play an important role in making history. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Citizens for Pets in Condos 954-366-4555 info@petsincondos.org We do not rescue, but we support rescue of domesticated companion animals by helping to open up places where the animals can be adopted, and by doing humane education.

The over-population of pets worldwide is a reality one cannot afford to ignore: the number of animals in need of a home is far greater than the number of families willing to adopt and take them in, which leads us to the painful reality of so many animals being born and raised in the streets, without access to primary cares such as enough sustenance, healthcare and protection from the harsh environment. Many of the stray animals end up needlessly dying of hunger, illness or abuse. The Animais de Rua project was created to try to ease the suffering of those animals. Brief history and achievements: The Animais de Rua project came to be bit by bit. In 2005, a group of friends got together with the purpose of raising funds to neuter a stray cat colony that lived in very poor and neglected conditions in The increased quality of life for these animals, previously malnourished and wounded on account of territorial fights and continuous breeding, was now evident in their shiny coats and well-fed figures. This dramatic change made us want to improve the lives of yet more stray animals. Being aware of so many daily cases of litters of cats and puppies being drowned or buried alive, being run over by cars and succumbing to disease, we decided to get busy and create a work-group dedicated to neutering strays and other animals in deficient conditions. Ideally, the Animais de Rua project shouldn't need to exist. In an ideal world, all pets should have a home and families that protect them from all danger. However, knowing that such dream is still a long way from coming true in The Animais de Rua project does not have a physical space of its own, so we are unable to collect and house stray animals. Our work consists in aiding the capture and neutering of stray animals, which are then returned to their familiar grounds. When we collect animals that are gentle, we try to place them at foster homes (usually, our voluntaries homes) and promote their adoption. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UNITED KINGDOM Sheila Harper Limited The Winding House Walkers Rise Hednesford Staffordshire WS12 0QU Tel: 01543 878989 Email: marketing@sheilaharper.co.uk Sheila Harper Limited: Opening the door to a lifetime of canine understanding.
