Description
URGENTLY need VOLUNTEERS to start ASAP
I am SwissGerman but have been living in Tamraght for 15 years. I rescue and take in injured or sick street animals. I have two locations for the shelter. One is my house where you will stay. Here is where we have the animals that need special attention and all the cats. The other location is near to banana beach.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Animal Care
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I live in the centre of Tamraght a small village on the coast of Morocco surrounded by Berber and Arab culture, beautiful nature and many fun activities.
You will be living in a shelter and so will see the day to day progress in animal rights in Morocco.
Shephards roam the village with their livestock. Fishing boats dot the shoreline. There are beaches for surfing, relaxing. Many restaurants and it is easy to get around by car or taxi.
Help
VOLUNTEERS needed URGENTLY
A typical day in the shelter begins early. We start with feeding and watering all the animals at the house. Then all floors/terraces are to be cleaned, blankets changed and any medication given. After this we will enjoy a breakfast and cuddle time with the animals. After breakfast we go to the shelter down. Here we feed and water all animals. We clean each cage at different intervals, allowing the dogs to run around for a while and showing them lots of love and attention. Any maintenance that needs to be done to the cages or garden area is done as well.
Other help needed:
Walking the dogs
Building and maintaining cages & fences
Social media posts
if you have a drivers license some trips to the vet will be required.
We are often confronted with rabies here. That is why we recommend a rabies vaccination before starting your trip.
