On the evening of September 19th, Zhuhai Animal Protection Association organized its members to get together with their dogs on Lovers Road for the first time, and made the moving picture of people and animals living in harmony public. Faced with these cheerful "little figures", it is difficult for onlookers to associate them with vagrancy, abuse and slaughter. Now that they are "reborn", they have become priceless to their owners.

As the head of the only non-governmental organization in Zhuhai that aims at treating animals well and caring for life, wujun, the former president of Elvis Presley, was deeply touched by the establishment of the association.

More than p>9 like-minded people

After more than two years of preparation, wujun got the registration certificate of the Animal Protection Association in April this year. "Affected by SARS, many innocent animals have been abandoned by their owners, displaced and even killed in the streets. Many people don't agree with this, but we can't be indifferent." At the beginning of the association, the first members took the initiative to adopt a group of street "wild people" when various conditions were not perfect.

From the discussion of "banning dogs" to lowering the threshold for keeping dogs, until the association was finally established, the road for wujun and its members has been uneven in the past two years. In order to win more people's support, they took to the streets to win popularity, and as a result, they found more than 9 like-minded people. It is generally believed that keeping pets should be treated scientifically, and management should be strengthened, and it should not be killed with a stick. Wu Junxi has mixed feelings. While running to the government functional departments to handle the establishment of the meeting, he contacted qualified institutions to plan supporting facilities.

From the pet society to the small animal society, and now to the animal protection society, wujun and his members have thought twice. Considering that there is no formal animal shelter and foster care institution in Zhuhai at present, they finally decided to mobilize social forces to publicize the idea of harmonious coexistence between people and animals and care for life.

Some people joked that her family is a zoo

Less than half a year ago, there are nearly 2 members of the association. In the interview, many members said that it is not just a responsibility that binds them closely to the association, but also an attitude towards life, a spirit of dedication, and something that touches them after being triggered.

Speaking of his love for cats, wujun smiled. He talked about his first cat. More than 1 years ago, on his way home, wujun accidentally found several urchins kicking a "ball" at the intersection. When he got a closer look, it turned out to be a kitten of several months old. Because there were worms in his stomach, it swelled and the kitten was dying after man-made destruction. Lao Wu then brought the cat home, and while feeding medicine to get rid of insects, he carefully fed it. Slowly, the cat recovered to health. Over time, Lao Wu and his wife formed an indissoluble bond with cats. At most, 4 cats were raised at home, and one of them, the birthday girl, followed Lao Wu for 19 years.

"It's worth the effort. They will surround you when you are sick, and they will hurt you when you are worried. Slowly, you will find that they are in touch with your heart."

Ms. Zhou adopted a Jimba dog during the SARS period, and now the little guy has become a star in the circle. Not only is the dog friendly, popular, but he is also considerate to his owner, which is completely different from the scene of wandering the streets, baldness and panic at first. "Compared with other dogs, it's not good-looking and smart enough, but it's my favorite, because I paid and got something back."

"These little animals don't have too many demands. Their feelings are simple, but they also need care." Ms. Lao, secretary general of the association, said. This is a caring woman. During the establishment of the association, she rescued many animals from vendors, including two goats to be slaughtered and a donkey.

"At that time, there was no place to put them, so we had to put them in the room for' stocking'." Ms. Lao lives on the fifth floor. Some people joked that her home is a zoo. She just laughed and gave up, still "going her own way". "These animals stayed in my house for a whole year. Since this year, they have to rely on people to eat and drink Lazarus. After a long time, after getting used to it, I found that they have many funny places and even spoiled. Of course, the premise is that someone must love them. " However, the good times didn't last long. Because of the sudden drop in temperature at the end of the year, the donkey didn't survive that winter and died of diarrhea. Ms. Lao was so sad that she sent the goat to the countryside. Now the association has become her new emotional sustenance, and many small animals are in urgent need of help.

how can people and animals live in harmony?

It is understood that as of 22, the number of pets in Zhuhai has exceeded 2,. With the increasing number of pets, how to live in harmony between people and animals in the city has become a topic.

During the party on the evening of 19th, the reporter found a small detail-all the members who participated in the event brought their own tools such as plastic bags and shovels. Once they found any pets "fighting guerrilla warfare" anywhere, they would clean them up in time.

President wujun told the reporter that the Association is currently negotiating with relevant parties on the establishment of animal shelter, foster care and supporting animal hospitals, and has reached a preliminary intention. By then, not only pets can enjoy more humane treatment, but other wild animals will also be sheltered.
