The Future of the Shelter

What is going on with the Souda Shelter Project?

We still have every intention to find a fitting ground and to build a legal, proper shelter. One for dogs, one for cats, one for animals in need.

Slim pickings. We have not had a big choice of properties to look at. Over the last two years we might have looked at less than ten. We understand that a shelter in a neighborhood is undesirable but we do not desire to be in a neighborhood either.

How can you help?

Do you own a property? Do you know someone who does? Have you driven past an area with a for sale sign?

What are we looking for?

Please share this information.

  • We are looking for an area from 7-10 stremmata/ 7.000 to 10.000 square meters.
  • We are looking for an area AT LEAST two kilometers from any residency.
  • We would like there to be access to water and to electricity.
  • We would like there to be access to a paved road.
  • We would like there to be an existing building on the land but if not that is okay, at least for the land to be somewhat leveled without big boulders.
  • We would prefer it to be already fenced in.
  • We want to buy it.

Let’s get the ball rolling.

Let’s raise the bar on animal welfare in Crete and in Greece, together.
