Students sponsor dogs
Students at St Patrick’s Salesian School, Sliema, have renewed their commitment towards the Association for Abandoned Animals. Last year the students sponsored three dogs. This year the aim is to sponsor five dogs from the association. The boys also hope other schools and organisations will support the association’s ‘Sponsor a dog’ campaign. Photo shows the boys on a recent visit to the sanctuary during which they took a number of dogs for a walk.

Sometimes I think that during my last ten years in my teaching career, I would have preferred to have a class full of four footed creatures, than creatures with two feet. I talked to many students and animals in my life, and it is such a pity that many of us tend to listen to students but do not listen to animals talking to us.
I believe when I listen to dogs and cats and monkeys and eagles and bears and others, thorugh YOu Tube, the animals seems to be telling us, "stop building more concrete and robbing our natural grounds and we have come to a point where we have to live in uncomfortable zones without our natural toilets and breeding requirements". Recently I noticed that bears and monkeys and deers and eagles and hawks have no choice but to roam into built up areas endangering themselves. I also saw a duck laying eggs in a balcony in the middle of a European city and when they hatched they started jumping from the balcony into the main street and one man stopped to try and break their fall, Once on the pavement all the ducks folled the mother duck to the nearest river about a mile away. It is nice to see people caring for pets in a city , but I rather see animals in thier natural habitat. It is all a compromise but alll due tothe fact that we are, "Wiccna tost wisq!"
