JAR is present at:

Kids Who Care: Fundraising for Furry Friends – JAR in the Shanghai Family magazine Year 7 student Cameron Lawrence loves

animals so much she took it upon herself

to raise money for Jaiya’s Animal Rescue

(JAR), a non-profit small animal rescue

group committed to protecting and

improving the health and welfare of

Shanghai’s animals.

“I just love animals and I hate to see

them mistreated. So I just want less to be

mistreated and more to be adopted. So I

just want to help them,” the 12-year-old

Australian-born, Shanghai-based

Lawrence says of her decision to raise

money for JAR.After finding two kittens

on the street and re-homing them,

Lawrence came across JAR and her

family got involved by fostering cats in

their Pudong home. Wanting to

contribute more to the cause, Lawrence

started collecting second-hand books to

sell at JAR’s adoption days.

We are issuing this newsletter monthly in

order to let you know about the

developments of JAR’s activities and our

lovely pets.

This fall, there are several ongoing JAR

fundraising activities.

Please support our JAR t-shirt sale on

adoption days and at the Petkeeper

shop. Also check out our yoghurt charity

TNR case Viola : You

can make it happen

No doubt you have noticed the

more friendly felines in your

neighborhood who even come to

you for a head rub.

Viola is such an example. She’s

always greeting my dog and me,

twining around my legs, waiting for

food and attention. It is very easy to

catch such a cat to have it

neutered or spayed. A little bit of

coaxing with food and in it goes in

the pet carrier.

What it took to spay Viola?

- A little bit of my time

- 300 RMB for spaying

WAPA (Wuxi Animal

Protection) rescued

nearly 600 caged cats

On July 24th and August 3rd, the

WAPA rescued nearly 600 caged

cats near Shanghai. The cats were

saved from cat nappers who were

planning to sell them to various

restaurants. The rescuers managed to

stop them on their way to

Guangdong. After hours of

negotiations in the heat with police

officers the cats were handed over to

the rescuers.

Many of the cats were starved and

injured, hiding in the corners in fear.

Since the cat base at the WAPA was

still under construction, the rescuers

had to fix up the location over night.

- Sick and injured cats were

separated from the healthy ones for

treatment.

- Male and Female cats were further

separated into groups.

All of the cats are now facing

medical fees including vaccinations,

neutering, flea treatments and food

to eat. The rescuers are trying to find

safe homes for the cats to go to.

The sad story of Sally

Walking through a pet market in Shanghai is often a

torture for every animal lover. It breaks your heart to

see many of the animals stuck together in tiny

cages, with not enough to eat and water to drink,

many of them obviously ill and/or on the brink of

death.

One of our volunteers recently rescued Sally from

such a pet market. When passing one of these awful

cages, she noticed a kitten lying motionless in the

corner. The rescuer started inquiring about the kitten

and was told to choose another one since this one

wasn’t eating anymore. There was a long discussion

with the vendor about the poor health of the kitten

and that it should be taken to a vet. Finally the

vendor angrily handed over the kitten for free and

told the rescuer to back off.

Sally was taken to the vet who declared her condition

life threatening. She was dehydrated, malnourished,

eyes terribly swollen due to infections, had swollen

kidneys and problems to hold her body temperature.

The following week was a week of fighting for Sally’s

life. Thanks to infusions, injections, eye ointment, force

feeding and of course a lot of TLC she recovered

slowly but steadily. Sally is now a happy and healthy

kitten waiting for her forever home.

Parent Information Fair (SAS Pudong)

I greatly appreciate the faculty, students and

parent’s support!

OUR CHALLENGE

Every year thousands of animals are abandoned in China. Just like in many other developing

countries, this situation requires the attention and effort of several parties: government agencies,

NGOs, NPOs and more importantly: YOU!

Imagine how different this situation could be if more people were willing to open their homes to an

abandoned pet, if more animals were vaccinated, neutered and spayed, if more people made

donations, if more people were foster parents, if education on ethical treatment of animals could

reach everybody …

We at JAR have a great task ahead of us, but we cannot do it alone … WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!
