Ljubav psića

Objavljeno u Ljubimci

Sreća se umiješala kada je jednog vrućeg srpanjskog dana na pustoši pokraj Splita psić prepušten sudbini.

Srpanj 2017. bio je vruć i svaka izgubljena životinja ili napuštena bez vode u to vrijeme, vjerojatno ne bih preživjela zbog dehidracije. 24. srpnja posjetila sam dr. Zdenku Filipović u njezinoj ordinaciji u Splitu. Dr. Filipović pomogla je Eco Hvaru da uspješno udomi pse, uglavnom u Njemačkoj, i razgovarali smo o daljnjoj suradnji, kada se na vratima pojavio mladi par noseći malo klupko krzna.

Bila je to tužna priča. Hodali su teško prohodnim terenom na istočnom rubu Splita, kad su čuli zvuk uplakanog psića. Uspjeli su ga pronaći, a potom su dva sata pretraživali područje ne bi li vidjeli ima li traga vlasniku ili možda nekom drugom napuštenom psiću. Ovaj je bio sam i preplašen, pa su ga uzeli sa sobom. Pazili su na njega u svojoj kamp kućici do sljedećeg dana. Nakon toga su se malo raspitali i to ih je dovelo do dr. Filipovića, koji vodi no-kill sklonište Animalis Centrum u Kaštel Sućurcu, zapadno od Splita.

Prihvaćajući svoju sudbinu, štene je bilo vrlo tiho i najslađe moguće. Njegovi su spasitelji govorili njemački, uz nešto engleskog, nama zajedničkog jezika. Dok je dr. Filipović pripremala papirologiju za prihvaćanje psića, mlada je gospođica počela plakati. Pitala sam je zašto, a ona mi je objasnila da ne može razumjeti kako netko može tako okrutno napustiti tako lijepo stvorenje. Njezina je tuga bila potpuno razumljiva. Nijedan ljubitelj životinja ne može se pomiriti s načinima na koje se neki ljudi ponašaju prema životinjama, koji variraju od bezosjećajnosti i bezbrižnosti do okrutnosti, a ponekad čak i sadizma. Pokušala sam je utješiti ističući da su sigurno spasili psiću život; bio je tako drag da mu neće biti teško pronaći dom. Nastavila je plakati. Onda sam pitala zašto ga ne zadrže, jer su se očito vezali za njega, a on je jednako očito sretan s njima. Bilo je mnogo praktičnih razloga zašto to nije bilo moguće. Složili su hrabar izraz lica i rezignirano odlučili ostaviti štene u skloništu.

I tako su sve formalnosti obavljene, a štene je ostalo, i dalje tiho i dalje prihvaćajući. Svi smo otišli svojim putem. Uputila sam se u trajektnu luku, gdje sam na svoj užas ustanovila da je trajekt, iako sam stigla sat i pol prije polaska u 14:30, bio prepun za moj auto. To je značilo da smo ja i moja četveronožna pratnja Nada bili osuđeni na još dva i pol sata dugog čekanja prije nego što nas trajekt u 17 sati odnese kući. Bilo je prevruće da bismo igdje hodali i auto je trebao stajati u koloni, pa nismo imali izbora nego ostati i mi. Imali smo dovoljno vode, a ja sam sjenilom prekrila auto i otvorila ga laganom, dobrodošlom povjetarcu koji je ublažio vrućinu. Imali smo sreće, pogotovo s obzirom na mnoge druge. Nažalost, Dalmacija je tijekom ljeta 2017. izraz 'paklena vrućina' shvatila doslovno. Veliki požari gorjeli su nedaleko od Splita, a kanaderi su zaposleno letjeli iznad glava u neprestanoj procesiji, pokušavajući ih dovesti pod kontrolom. Vidjeti ovaj koordinirani napor iz sigurnosti splitske luke bio je podsjetnik koliko je Hrvatska sretna što ima izvrsne, predane i dobro obučene vatrogasce, od kojih su mnogi dobrovoljci koji posvećuju puno vlastitog vremena i energije tijekom cijele godine kako bi bili spremni za hitne intervencije.

Sljedećeg dana, 25. srpnja, bio je blagdan svetog Jakova, zaštitnika Pitava, i ja sam se probijala do seoske crkve na posebnu slavljeničku misu i procesiju, kad sam primila neočekivani telefonski poziv. Jučerašnji spasioci odlučili su ipak ponijeti psića kući sa sobom. Odmah sam kontaktirala sklonište za životinje dr. Filipovića i nastalo je veselje. Diana i Stefan otišli su po psića koji se sada zove Grey (Sivi). Zasigurno se dočekao na nogama i pronašao pravu ljubav.

Napravljene su putne isprave i sve potrebne pripreme za njegova cijepljenja, a nekoliko dana kasnije Grey je otišao u svoj novi život u Njemačkoj.

Eco Hvar oduševljeno prima nove poruke u intervalima, koje potvrđuju sreću svih strana. Svaka poruka je vibrirala radošću, pa tako i email primljen 23. kolovoza 2017., gotovo mjesec dana nakon spašavanja: "slobodno objavite slike i priču o Greyu na svojoj web stranici. Nastavit ćemo vas obavještavati o razvoju Greya. Sjajan je pas i jako nam je drago što smo ga prihvatili u svoju obitelj !!! Sve najbolje, Diana & Stefan“.

Sretna priča, zbog koje je Eco Hvaru drago biti uključen u akcijama spašavanja životinja. Toliko je toga čemu ne možemo pomoći, ali jedno je uspješno spašavanje ogromna naknada.

Baš kao što Grey nagrađuje svoje spasitelje bezuvjetnom ljubavlju koju sretan ljubimac pruža, Eco Hvar je nagrađen ljubavlju koju šire svi uključeni. HVALA, DIANA I STEFAN! Sklonište Animalis Centrum objavilo je status zahvale na svojoj Facebook stranici.

  • ‘A dream come true’: Brazil’s blue-and-yellow macaws return to Rio after 200 years

    An ambitious ‘refaunation’ project is bringing the much-loved birds and other lost species back to the city’s national park

    Images of the iconic blue-and-yellow macaw can be spotted all over Rio de Janeiro. Yet the real thing has been seen so rarely in the Brazilian city that some wondered if it ever really existed there at all.

    The French explorer Jean de Léry first described an abundance of the giant, colourful parrots around Indigenous tribes in the 16th century, and the Austrian naturalist Johann Natterer sighted theAra araraunain the city in 1818.

  • Bitten by snakes 200 times – on purpose: US man’s quest to help deliver new antivenom

    Tim Friede put his ‘ass on the line’ to help stop snakebite deaths – whose numbers appear to be rising amid the climate crisis

    As we overheat and degrade our planet, more people are set to come into contact, sometimes fatally, with venomous snakes. One man hopes to provide an unusual solution to this, after subjecting himself to 200 intentional snakebites to his body.

    For nearly 20 years, Tim Friede, 58, allowed some of the most lethal snakes in the world to bite him so he could build up an immunity that could one day be developed into a universal antivenom.

  • UK opening new oil and gas fields would imperil global climate goals, experts say

    Senior climate figures warn North Sea drilling would encourage fossil fuel exploitation by developing countries

    Opening new oil and gas fields in the North Sea would “send a shock wave around the world”, imperilling international climate targets, undermining the UK’s climate leadership and encouraging developing countries to exploit their own fossil fuel reserves, experts have warned.

    The UK government is under stiff pressure from the oil industry, the Conservatives, Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party, some trade unions and parts of the Treasury to give the green light to new oil and gas fields, despite clear evidence that doing so would not cut prices and would have almost no effect on imports.

  • Campaigners demand action to break UK’s ‘addiction’ to controversial herbicide

    Use of glyphosate has risen 10-fold in 30 years, raising fears for public health

    It was Scottish farmers in the 1980s who pioneered the practice of spraying glyphosate on their wheat just before harvest. Struggling in the damp glens to get their crop to dry evenly, they came up with the idea of accelerating the process by killing it a week or two before harvesting.

    Glyphosate, then a revolutionary herbicide that killed everything plant-based but spared animal life, seemed perfect for the job. Soon the practice spread to wetter, colder agricultural regions around the world.

  • Country diary: There’s a pecking order to my bird feeder – but should I be feeding them at all? | Gwyneth Lewis

    Cardiff: Robin then blue tit, siskin then goldfinch … I love this ritual, but I’m persuaded that it deserves careful thought

    I’ve been away from my bird feeder for months and, on my return, one of my priorities is to restock it. This has become a ritual, and I feel great joy in observing the strict order in which the birds arrive.

    I sit down and wait for the local population to remember my table and spread the word. It’s not long before they come in sequence, no less predictable than court etiquette. The first to venture for sunflower seeds is the robin. The blue tit, in a whirr of wings, comes a close second. These two act as food tasters. Other species, out of sight, watch intently to see if the daring survive. They do, so dunnocks arrive, then a pair of chaffinches, picking up spilt seeds from the ground.

  • ‘Should it all just be renationalised?’ – your water crisis questions answered

    Sandra Laville has been reporting on England’s sewage crisis for years. She answered your questions on the water privatisation scandal.

    Guardian environment correspondent Sandra Laville’s reporting on the sewage crisis in English water has helped to expose a scandal of privatisation that has created a swell of fury across the political divide.

    Sandra has now finished answering your questions. Read the Q&A below.

    The government has put the cost of renationalising water at £100bn. But this is a disputed figure. Academics working with the People’s Commission on the Water Sector say this figure is ‘serious scaremongering created on biased evidence’ which was paid for by water companies. It is based on the Regulatory Capital Value of companies as determined by Ofwat, not the” true and fair value in law”, which reflects losses from market failures, like the cost of pollution or the monopoly profits taken by shareholders and banks.

    The route to renationalisation could come via the system set up legally when the companies were privatised. Under the law companies can be put into special administration if they are unable to pay debts, if they breach licence obligations, such as on sewage pollution, or failing to supply water, and if it is considered in the public interest to do so. Special administration is a form of temporary renationalisation.

    This is the million dollar question! While tackling separation across the whole network at once is considered too disruptive and costly, particularly in urban environments, the chartered institute of water and environmental management says moving towards separated systems is their key focus to address urban pollution and storm water sewage releases. New developments, for example, are now mandated to have separate pipes for foul wastewater and surface water run off.

    They also want to see the increased use of sustainable drainage systems like water butts, and storage basins for existing properties, to reduce the amount of runoff into the system. Keeping gardens rather than paving them over, and creating so called sponge cities is also key to tackling pollution.

    The UK was described as the dirty man of Europe back in the 70s and 80s, due to levels of pollution. For example in coastal towns there were no water treatment plants to treat sewage, raw sewage was just pumped and dumped into the sea. It was only when the EU directives came in that the clean up began. Chief amongst these was the Urban Wastewater directive, the Water Framework directive, and the Bathing Water directive.

    Since leaving the EU there have been fears that these pieces of legislation could be watered down. James Bevan, as CEO of the Environment Agency, talked about changing the Water Framework Directive, essentially to make it easier for rivers to pass tests for chemical and biological health. Currently no river is rated as in good overall health under the WFD where rivers have to pass both chemical and biological health tests.

  • Say no to pesticides, mix up your lawn – and six more ways to help bees to thrive

    Like so many flying insects, these essential pollinators are suffering because of habitat loss and the overuse of chemicals. Here’s how to give them a healthier, happier home

    We know about honeybees and bumblebees, but most of the UK’s bees are neither: they’re solitary bees, loners who come in a dizzying range of sizes, colours and varieties – more than 240 species. Have you heard, for instance, of the hairy-footed flower bee? “They’re one of the first bees to emerge each year,” says Laura Larkin, the chief conservation officer at Buglife. “The males have got fantastic little fluffy bits on their feet.”

    How about leaf-cutter bees, which chomp “a perfectly circular hole” out of leaves to build their nests? Or bright-orange tawny mining bees, wool-carder bees, ivy bees? “There are so many of them and I’m still learning,” says Kate Bradbury, a wildlife gardener, writer, bee lover and the author of One Garden Against the World. “They’re just great – there’s a solitary bee for every occasion.”

  • ‘The danger and value of water are in my blood’: how rain fences are making Dutch homes more climate resilient

    Housing corporations are adopting rainwater storage in garden fences, reducing pressure during downpours and preserving water for times of drought

    Good fences make good neighbours – but rain fences could make even better ones.

    That is the hope of housing corporations in the Netherlands, which are adopting rainwater storage in their garden fences.

  • ‘They poo all over the yard’: little corellas are terrorising Kangaroo Island – and nothing can stop them

    The birds – not native to the South Australian island – have covered a school in faeces, torn up infrastructure and damaged crops

    Thousands of little corellas that have been terrorising the inhabitants of Kangaroo Island have been culled but it won’t be enough to fix the problem, authorities say.

    The birds, which are not native to the island, have covered a local school in faeces, torn up infrastructure, damaged crops and caused mental distress to residents with their screeching.

  • As Iran war exposes global dependence on fossil fuels, the biggest emitters are reaping the rewards

    Worst polluters hold world’s future in their hands as they benefit from higher fossil fuel prices, but global trends favour renewables

    Oil stands at about $110 a barrel and some forecasts have predicted it could reach $150. Food prices are on the rise and are expected to leap further owing to the fertiliser supply crunch, leading the World Food Programme USA to warn that global food insecurity could reach record levels, with 45 million more people pushed into acute hunger. Industries from steel to chemicals have alerted markets that they face shortages and soaring costs, while households across the world are feeling the pinch – people have been told to turn down their thermostats, take the bus or cycle, and cut their speed on motorways.

    The impact of the US-Israel war on Iran – the third global shock in six years, after Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine and the Covid-19 pandemic – has laid bare how reliant our economies still are on fossil fuels. Simon Stiell, the UN climate chief, said in March: “Fossil fuel dependency is ripping away national security and sovereignty and replacing it with subservience and rising costs.”
