For being fiscal council member of Non-Governamental Organization (NGO) "Confraternity of the Meows and Barks" and being engaged with always searching such animals, almost always needy: the need for a home, for food, for basic conditions, at last, for survival, I will donate 5% (five per cent) of all income resultant of works made through म Grámmatos.

This Confraternity does a great job in helping dogs and cats, mainly, finding a family, as well as the family finding the so desired fellow of the life.

Always searching for volunteers, the Confraternity accepts donations in species or money, sponsoring, temporary homes. How about you, at least, visiting their site?

Or their Blog?

WHO ARE THEY?

Our NGO was born intending rescuing, castrating, and donating animals. We take interest in shelting FEW, protecting SEVERAL and castrating MANY, for castration is the only solution to the structural problem of procriation of abandoned animals. Our NGO is constituted by liberal professionals, common people who work, study, living, beyond helping the NGO.

The way to follow for the raising of a new generation of animal protectors is this: we are people who have our own lives, problems, and joys of a life, but who are faaaaar away from that stereotype of people que think wrongly that taking care of animals means smelling bad, having dirty house, animals piled up. Animal protection is not taking them and piling them up in precarious places, full of diseases. It's making people aware, castrating, rescuing, and donating.

That's the idea of Confraternity of Meows and Barks: taking part of such a new generation of protectors. Making the difference, sharing responsibilities, and trying to minimize all the problems of the animal and which many times are consequence of uninformation of their owners, and not only of neglection or cruelty.

A confraternity is, by principle, a brotherhood united by an ideal, a thinking or a cause. The Confraternity of Meows and Barks is a brotherhood of all that: of ideal of making the difference in the animals abandoned life, of the thinking that the basis of everything is the castrations of the animals and conscientization of people, and the cause, the most beautiful of all, which is: saving a life. Only one, if necessary. Priving it of pain, of suffering and fear, and fill it with joy, peace and love.

Our administrative site is in North Zone of São Paulo, but we don't have a shelter for animals. We work with the concept of temporary home, that is, people concede a little space of their houses and of their time to help us welcoming and giving the animals we rescue.

Yes, it's possible! We are normal people, work, study, have house and children. Who knows we have never met in the bus ou in the row of the supermarket?

Here you will know the faces which compose the basis of this brotherhood. Take part in it, do what you can!
