However, due to other economic and social problems in Georgia, the issue of animal safety and welfare is completely neglected. In fact, according to one high-ranking government official in a relevant ministry, in the eyes of the law there is little difference between homeless animals and trash. This is not just a problem for homeless animals \u2013 it is also a problem for Georgians and their pets, as stray animals on the streets can make some people uncomfortable or they can expose the citizens to some health hazards.<\/p>\n<p>The Georgian Society for the Protection and Safety of Animals (GSPSA) is the only NGO the treatment of animals into accordance with international standards and experience, committing itself to operating an animal shelter for abused and homeless animals. Currently, due to space and financial constraints, the animal shelter is only capable of offering limited food, shelter and veterinarian and emergency assistance. In addition to offering animals for adoption to loving homes, the shelter promotes the importance of sterilization and proper animal care.<\/p>\n<p>While the goals and objectives of GSPSA are lofty and its means to achieve them are as of yet limited, it is very easy to help GSPSA achieve its goals. Of course, one can always offer a loving home to one of the dogs from the shelter, thus creating more space for other homeless dogs. However, for those unable to do so, one of the simplest ways to help is to offer the shelter food scraps from your table, from restaurants, or pack up what is left after a supra \u2013 including bread \u2013 and take it to the shelter for both the dogs at the shelter and to be distributed to poorer households that find it difficult to afford the upkeep necessary for their companions. Another easy way to contribute is to bring old blankets and sheets to help keep the dogs warm during the winter season.<\/p>\n<p>For those of you with a little more time or financial resources, there are other simple ways to help. The GSPSA accepts donations. If you are unable to open your home or your wallet, you can open your heart by giving attention to one or more dogs, for example by playing with them, petting them, or taking them for walks \u2013 all of which will improve your quality of life and that of the dog and improve its ability to find a loving home. You can also ask your veterinarian for support by educating their clients, donating medicines, or offering free sterilization for homeless animals. Another way to help is to become an advocate by writing to government officials and media outlets about the need to find a humane solution to the problem of homeless animals through sterilization programs and public shelters, which in fact will be needed in order to bring Georgia within the standards and requirements of the European Union.<\/p>\n<p class=\"custom3\" style=\"text-align: right;\" align=\"right\">Angelika Katarzina Broach \u2013 The member of GSPSA<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since april, 2007\u00a0 Angelika\u00a0 has\u00a0 contacted\u00a0 to the Society.\u00a0 She\u00a0 likes\u00a0 animals\u00a0 so much\u00a0 and\u00a0 with\u00a0 her\u00a0 great\u00a0 support\u00a0 is\u00a0 functioning\u00a0 the\u00a0 shelter\u00a0\u00a0 of\u00a0 GSPSA.\u00a0 Angelika\u00a0 and\u00a0 her\u00a0 husband - Devis\u00a0 Broach\u00a0 have\u00a0 made\u00a0 too\u00a0 much\u00a0 for\u00a0 the\u00a0 shelter.\u00a0 They are\u00a0 the\u00a0 most\u00a0 active\u00a0 members\u00a0 of the\u00a0 Society.\u00a0 This\u00a0 family\u00a0 keeps\u00a0 home Since\u00a0 Apless animals [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":935,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-522","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/Anjel-250.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/522","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=522"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/522\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/935"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=522"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=522"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gspsa.org.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
