Takis Shelter, Greece


Set up more than four years ago, with the sole purpose of rescuing the stray, abandoned animals of Crete, TAKIS SHELTER cares for over 175 dogs and 13 cats.

Based in Lerapetra, the South of Crete, the rescued cats and dogs have up to 5,300 square meters of private, enclosed olive groves to run around in.

With very few people willing to help, there is still an overwhelming amount of stray cats and dogs in the South that need rescuing. In the past, dogs have been left tied up, often with their puppies in a box, outside the shelter. Over 160 of the shelters cats and dogs have been neutered, with only a remaining few left, due to their age or health. The shelter receives no help from the authorities and relies solely on donations.

THE SANCTUARY ANGELS sent £150 to Takis Shelter in December 2018.
