KAR Fashion Show – 15th october 2019.

Posted on 18 October 2019 by KAR

KAR FASHION SHOW – TUESDAY 15^TH OCTOBER 2019 – CLUB TROPICANA, OZANKOY

The weather held….. just!!! For the 4^th KAR Fashion show. There was a bolt for the indoors towards the end, but on the whole, a fabulous dry day was had.

The aim? Simple, to continue the work of KAR and improve the facilities at the centre. Since 2017 the Fashion Show has primarily contributed towards the creation of the Vet Room, the quarantine area, shading for the summer and the glorious new play area. Also the October Fashion Show will assist in the vet treatments needed to protect the dogs and cats moving forward into 2020.

To thank everyone individually would take hours and hours. So To everyone involved THANK YOU SO VERY, VERY MUCH.

The laughter, the banter, the sun , the venue, the music all contributed to this fun day out.

The appearance of ‘members of the Royal Family’ at the Garden Party was appreciated as was the flag waving and National Anthem.

‘The Tropicana Flashers’ performed to the Full Monty’s ‘Keep Your Hat On’, with plenty of non PC, wolf whistling, stamping of feet. And they did….. keep it on!!!!

Eric our star from the Centre, enjoyed his day and had lots of love, but is still waiting for his furever home…. So please remember this is ALL for the 300 dogs and 50 cats still waiting for their happy every after.

So…… the amount raised? Another staggering 8200TL. So from everyone involved and especially Jacky Kester you star, THANK YOU

.

Lisa and Steve……. thank you, again!!!!

Posted on 6 August 2024 by KAR

A BIG THANK YOU.

Steve and Lisa have been on holiday for 3 weeks and once again during their holiday they have been volunteering at the Centre. On arrival at the centre we were given an wonderful donation of joint supplements, shampoo for skin conditions, flea/tick treatments plus some cleaning aids and tools.

The kitchen floor in the cattery has rotted with all the damp weather and has become dangerous to walk on. Steve lifted the floor, concreted it and then tiled it. Not only did Steve and Lisa donate the sand and cement for the job, they purchased replacement worktops and Steve fitted them.

They have also both helped with cleaning at the centre as we are struggling to work in the heat with limited volunteers. Lisa cleaned the shed out as there was a nasty smell in there. Steve nominated her for the job as she was sensitive to the smell! Two dead rats were removed!

Before leaving to go back to the UK, they visited a local supermarket and topped up our cleaning supplies up with an amazing amount of cleaning products.

Steve and Lisa true hero’s. What would we do without people like you supporting our animals and centre staff. Thank you for your continued support.

They also presented Elaine, our Centre Manager with a painting they had arranged to be done by Vesela, from a photo Steve took in November. We are sure you will recognise this wonderful pair – Evie and Daphne.

Do you remember the little kitten called Sunny (now Reggy) who went to his forever home a few weeks ago? We’ve received some more photos of him chilling out and relaxing in his new home with Rose and we thought we would share them with you!

Thank you Rose for giving Reggy a loving home, he certainly looks very happy!

We also have a page for posting updates on the dogs and cats that have been homed from KAR – it’s called Kyrenia Animal Rescue – Happy Tails. If you have homed an animal from us, feel free to send us photos!

Chiquita Update

Posted on 6 August 2024 by KAR

Chiquita and her puppies continue to do well. They are starting to move around the crate but are still too young to go far so Mum can easily keep an eye on them. She is being a very good Mum, making sure they’re okay. Just wait until they open their eyes and start exploring!

Oeration Rescue Kitten!!!!

Posted on 6 August 2024 by KAR

The other day Elaine, our centre manager, was at the vets. A lady arrived with her own dog when they suddenly heard a miaowing noise coming from the lady’s car. They opened the bonnet to find a kitten trapped in the car’s engine! The lady, Karen had just driven all the way from Esentepe not knowing that she had an extra passenger.

Elaine managed to get hold of the frightened kitten, who then managed to escape and hid under the KAR van. They couldn’t get the kitten out from its new hiding place so they drove very carefully to nearby Pitstop.

The kind men at Pitstop put the van up on the ramp, one of them managed to get hold of the kitten, quickly put it in a cat carrier and off Elaine and Karen went back to the vets. The kitten was checked out by the vet and was given a clean bill of health – that was a relief!

Later the same day, Karen collected the kitten and drove back to Esentepe where the kitten was re-united with her Mum.

We do love a happy ending and thank you to Pitstop for helping to rescue the kitten.

SAH and KAR working together for Roman.

Posted on 16 July 2024 by KAR

Over the Bayram holiday we received a phone call from Sah supermarket about a large dog in distress that they believed had been hit by a car. Centre staff responded to the call for help and went to the supermarket. When they arrived they saw it was Roman, the kangal who lives around the market and spends a lot of his time sitting or laying outside the front of the store. Roman was in a great deal of pain and could not stand. He was taken to Vetpoint where he was x-rayed and checked over for other possible damage to his body. Fortunately there were no broken bones, but he was badly bruised and had some deep wounds on the underneath of all 4 legs. Antibiotics and pain killing medication was given. The vet on duty thought it was probably caused by a collision with a vehicle.

Roman was taken to our rescue centre for his continued care. Even though we put 2 buster collars on Roman to prevent him for licking his wounds, he still managed to get to them and we had to dress them daily.

Sah market paid for his veterinary treatment and donated towards his food and medication whilst at the Centre. Thank you Sah and their staff for showing compassion and kindness to this gentle street dog.

Roman was taken back to Sah today where he was welcomed by staff and shoppers. We think he’s happy to be back!

candy

Candy

This sweet girl was brought into centre along with her siblings in April 2015. She was about 3 months old at the time.

Despite numerous appeals over the years, she remains at the Centre. Now 9 years old, she would love her own forever home and a happy ever after.

She is friendly little girl who loves a walk (although not at the moment as it is too hot!!) and enjoys the sunshine on her face.

If you can’t offer her a home, please sponsor her for £10 per month – it’s really easy to set up.

Please share for Candy and let’s find that loving home that she deserves so much!
