New animal protection association in Motril, Costa Tropical
Calling all animal lovers in Motril. A new association for the Protection of Animals and Wildlife (APAF) has been formed in Motril. In conjunction with the Environment Department who are subsidising the APAF website http://www.apaf.org.es The new offices and animal centre will be in front of the Vivero Municipal in Puntalon where at the moment stray animals are taken by the Deputacion de Granada. However, it is still early days and the APAF have yet to finalise the set- up of the animal centre. The APAF will have a resident vet and animals will be treated, chipped and castrated before they are found new homes. If you are looking for a new pet they are putting photos and details of animals available for adoption onto their website (they already have a few photos of cats and dogs) and the website also has other general information about the association. When pets have been re-homed there will be home checks made at various intervals by the association staff. Once the centre is up and running we will get back to you with a full report.
