Eco Hvar: naša hranilišta

Objavljeno u Ljubimci

VAŽNA NAPOMENA: Uložili smo mnogo truda i novca u postavljanje naših hranilišta. Projektirali smo i financirali kućice za mačke te ih postavili na mjesta uz dopuštenje vlasnika nekretnina. Ovako rade:

Zatvorene kućice namjenjene su pružanju skloništa mačkama tijekom hranjenja i spriječavanju pasa da dohvate hranu. Ta hranilišta nisu utočišta / skloništa (u smislu smještaja). Nije cilj da mačke mogu spavati unutra: ulične mačke žive slobodno vani i kućice nisu dosta velike za sve mačke koje mogu biti u blizini. Ne stavimo meke materijale poput jastuka ili deka u kućicama. Takvi materijali mogu stvoriti sjedište za buhe i brzo bi se zaprljali i smočili, što bi moglo uzrokovati zdravstvene probleme mačkama.

Hranilice unutar kućica pružaju siguran i stalan izvor suhe hrane za mačke. Pune se po potrebi.

Zdjelice s mokrom hranom se koriste samo pod nadzorom. Uklanjaju se kada mačke završe s jelom. Svi ostaci hrane se uklanjaju, a zdjelice peru prije sljedeće upotrebe.

Voda se osigura u staklenoj ili tvrdoj plastičnoj posudi koja se čisti svaki put kada se puni kako bi se spriječilo stvaranje zelene sluzi. Mekane plastične boce i posude nisu dobre ni za ljude ni za životinje, pogotovo kad se koriste u više navrata i ostanu nekoliko dana.

Hranilišta i okolina održavaju se čistima i urednima.

Nepravilno korištenje hranilišta uzrokuje zdravstvene probleme mačaka, osim što nam stvara dodatni posao.

AKO ŽELITE POMOĆI, MOLIM VAS SLJEDITE OVE SMJERNICE:

DONACIJE KVALITETNE HRANE U PAKETIMA ILI KONZERVAMA SU DOBRODOŠLE  i mogu se ostaviti uz kućice.

MOLIMO VAS DA NE HRANITE MAČKE NA MJESTIMA GDJE SMO POSTAVILI NAŠA HRANILIŠTA OSIM U DOGOVORU S NAŠOM UDRUGOM ECO HVAR.

NAŠA ISKUSTVA

Ljudi nas često traže da uspostavimo hranilišta na drugim mjestima gdje se zna da se okupljaju mačke. Tu su naravno uključeni znatni troškovi za koje nema javnih sredstava: naša Udruga ovisi isključivo o dobrovoljnim donacijama. Mjesta moraju biti pažljivo odabrana. Hranidbenim stanicama moraju upravljati pojedinačni volonteri. Velika je obveza uključena!

U nekoliko godina otkako smo uspostavili prototip hranilišta, naišli smo na protivljenje i destruktivne akcije mrzitelja mačaka. Razumijemo da ne vole svi mačke ili druge životinje i to je bio jedan od razloga za osnivanje hranilišta.

Probleme su stvarali i ljubitelji mačaka. Tijekom cijelog ljeta 2025. godine, posebno na hranilištu na parkiralištu Plodine, ljudi su ostavljali višak hrane oko kućica. Neka je hrana bila potpuno neprikladna (npr. suhi kruh, peciva); ogromne količine suhe hrane ostavljene su izvan kućica, koje su uglavnom ostale netaknute; ostala je mokra mačja hrana koja je odmah postala smrdljiva, pokvarena i crvotočna.

Plastične posude ostavljene s vodom brzo su postale kontaminirane zelenom sluzi; ručnici i mekani materijali su stavljeni u kolibe i na nama je palo da ih operemo kad su bili prljavi. Veći dio ljeta, dok je bilo mačića na licu mjesta, obilazili smo hranilište Plodina tri puta dnevno, a svakodnevno smo morali odlagati neprikladnu, nepotrebnu hranu i čistiti popratni nered. Usput, drago nam je reći da su majka i mačići koje smo tada brinuli uspješno udomljeni, kao i druge mačke s mjesta.

Pozdravljamo suradnju sa svima koji žele pomoći ugroženim životinjama na Hvaru. Drago nam je zbog pozitivnih prijedloga kako unaprijediti naše aktivnosti. Razumijemo da drugi mogu imati drugačije stavove o tome što ulične mačke trebaju. Uspostavili smo naše hranilišta za mačke u skladu s načelima promicanja dobre higijene i zdrave prakse. Ako drugi žele djelovati izvan tih načela, mogu i trebaju postaviti vlastite hranidbene stanice na drugim mjestima osim naših.

  • Drax datacentre could create nearly twice the yearly emissions of all Gatwick flights

    Exclusive: Campaign group’s analysis of North Yorkshire plans finds datacentre would have to burn 4.9m tonnes of wood a year

    Drax’s planned datacentre could produce nearly double the emissions of all flights out of Gatwick airport each year by burning 4.9m tonnes of wood annually, an analysis has shown.

    Campaigners say this would make it “one of the dirtiest datacentres out there”.

  • Australia faces summer of extreme weather, Anthony Albanese warns at pre-Cop

    Prime minister tells delegates in Tuvalu and Fiji that ‘super El Niño’ brewing in the Pacific shows climate change is ‘here right now’

    Anthony Albanese has warned Australia faces a hazardous summer, likely including floods, cyclones and extreme heat, due to the immediate threat of climate breakdown and a rising “super El Niño”.

    Speaking alongside national leaders at a climate summit in Fiji, the prime minister said the expected nasty summer and the demonstrated impact on Pacific island countries – including low-lying Tuvalu – showed the world could not afford to let the goal of limiting global heating to 1.5C “just slip from our grasp”.

  • Green party drops longstanding opposition to nuclear power

    Party in England and Wales ditches commitment to phase out nuclear in major shift in its energy policy

    Green party members have voted to end the party’s opposition to nuclear power, dropping a commitment to phase out the technology in a major shift in its energy policy.

    The motion, adopted at conference, removes a “blanket opposition to nuclear fission” and instead commits the Green party of England and Wales to assessing nuclear projects alongside other low-carbon technologies.

  • Snakes, bobcats, mountain lions: the secret animal world beneath the Hollywood sign

    An international symbol for the city, the sign is also hallmark of the region’s environmental richness

    Atop Mount Lee, in the heart of Los Angeles, the wind is quiet. Two red-tailed hawks sail above, barely flapping as they coast the thermal air like surfers on a wave. Standing beside the giant letters of the Hollywood sign, the city seems peaceful. On a clear day, blocks and blocks of homes unfold beneath and the skies reveal sights all the way to Catalina Island – nearly 50 miles out, across the Pacific.

    That’s the beauty seen from the Hollywood sign.

  • Country diary: On the bluest of days, the plaintive call of a pipit | Mark Cocker

    Combs Moss, Derbyshire: There is plenty to be gloomy about, but today was not the day for it up on the moor

    The morning was sunlit and the sky the sort of deepest blue dome that makes your heart sing – and all the louder for being at the time of least natural sound.

    Autumn is the most silent season for birds, but at least I could hear the passing meadow pipits more clearly as they came out of the blue in small numbers and crossed overhead on migration. There is something inherently melancholic about their plaintive piping calls, which seem at one with the mood of upland treeless places.

  • Revealed: the methane mega-leaks from UN climate summit host Turkey

    Exclusive: Cop31 leader calling for global curbs on climate-heating gas has landfills producing some of world’s worst plumes

    Two or three nights each week, the smell descends. Residents of villages on the rural outskirts of Istanbul don’t know what the smell is, but they have been plagued by it for years: a smell so bad they have to sleep with their windows closed even during hot summer nights. They know the source, too: the huge Silivri municipal waste dump a few miles away that is belching out stinking gases as food and other organic waste rots.

    “The smell is not subtle. It suffocates you,” said Kemalettin Özenç, sitting outside a tea shop in the village of Yolçatı. “It’s worse when the air is still: sometimes families linger until midnight out here. Even when you go inside it’s inescapable.”

  • To cull or not to cull: Greenland debates fate of world’s slowest shark

    As trawlers compete with Greenland sharks for halibut and cod, conservationists and fishers clash over what to do about misunderstood species

    ‘When I accidentally catch a shark, I bring it to my dogs,” Henrik Jensen, a 27-year-old from Greenland’s west coast, says casually. “I don’t let it back down because [the sharks] bully me and cut my lines.”

    Jensen has fished for halibut in Ilulissat, Greenland’s third largest town, for a decade. He works an hour north of the town’s main iceberg-laden fishery, which sustains the livelihood of nearly 400 fishers. There, the halibut are bigger and more plentiful, but so are the Greenland sharks.

  • ‘They take our water, our soil’: protesters fight ‘foreignisation’ as Javier Milei encourages land sales in Argentina

    The country’s far-right president is courting billionaire investors by removing a block on foreign ownership of land and natural resources

    On 19 September, Marta Sahores, an 84-year-old chemistry professor and activist who has mobilised against mega-mining projects for more than two decades, took to the streets in Argentina. Alongside workers, retirees, students, Indigenous groups and human rights organisations, Sahores was there to protest against the country’s far-right president, Javier Milei. During the marcha de la bronca – the “march of anger” – protesters held signs reading, among other rallying cries, “The land is not for sale”.

    Marching in Esquel, a town nestled in the foothills of the Andes in Chubut province, she also held up a sign defending the country’s water resources against what she called the government’s “handover” to investors.

  • The pest I’ll never forget: the cockroaches I still dream about

    My student house in Manchester had several thousand other occupants. Despite pest controllers regularly dousing the property, the glossy, greasy, relentless insects marched onwards, endlessly reproducing

    ‘You do know about the cockroaches?” I’ve forgotten most things people said to me in the 80s, but never that. It was said by one of the occupants of the student house in Longsight, Manchester, that I had signed up to live in the following year. When the landlord had shown me and my future housemates the property, the tenants had been out. He told us they were third years doing their finals and must not be disturbed under any circumstances. (What can I say? We were gullible back then.) Days before summer term ended though, I’d knocked on the door to show a friend where I’d be living. Instead, I learned that the house was infested.

    The weird thing is, we moved in anyway. In truth, although I understood this was very bad news, I didn’t quite realise what a cockroach was. There was no internet, so I would have had to go to a library to know what I know now: their march, their canter, their crunch if you step on one. Their soft, sweet, sour smell (uric acid which they store in their fat, apparently). Sometimes, in the back of a shop, or a restaurant loo, I catch that scent and I know what it is.

  • More than 1,200 Colorado students have earned a climate ‘seal’: ‘We’re the ones growing up in this world’

    A statewide initiative pairs climate-focused coursework with community service – and is spreading to other states

    As a student at a high school not far from Denver’s main airport, Anthony Muñoz wondered whether the jet fuel from airplanes flying above his campus was harming living things.

    An avid gardener, Muñoz partnered with a local university to create a garden on the campus of his charter school, Vista Academy, filling it with native plants that could detect ground-level ozone pollution. He also worked with climate scientists from the National Center for Atmospheric Research, a federal office in nearby Boulder, who directed Muñoz on what data to collect, what the condition of leaves reveals about air quality and why milkweed matters for monarch butterfly migration.
