Another Good Reason For Brexit*...

A Romanian dog rescue charity is using £5,000 fundraising to go and pick up dogs off the streets over there - but says Brexit could impact their work.
Well, good! We have enough animals needing rescue in this country (mainly because it's easier to adopt a child than an animal from a big UK charity), there's no need to import more.
Leaving the EU could limit the numbers of vulnerable dogs taken to new homes in the UK, the charity’s chairperson has said.
'Vulnerable' dogs like these, perhaps? Frankly, this is a good thing.
Next week a group of the charity’s volunteers is heading to Romania to help combat a street dog problem.
Volunteers will travel to Braila, a city in eastern Romania, where they will team up with Dog Rescue Norway and a local vet to round up stray dogs which will then be neutered.
And left in Romania. As they should be.

* Even if we do now have to fight until Hallowe'en for what we voted for....

The Norway that isn't in the EU? Or is there another Norway?

A little off topic, but I was talking to a waiter in Cyprus about the large numbers of stray cats. He told us a charity vets opened up, so he phone them and asked if they could help
They turned up and rounded up over one hundred stray cats
After six months, they came back and said, "They've all been injected and neutered, here's your cats back"

Apparently at one time, they had to employ a full time person just to keep the cats out of the restaurant
