Collaboration for Street Cats
Cruz Azul Murcia is collaborating with cat charity, Dejando Huella, as part of their ongoing campaign to manage street cats in a humane and caring way. Dejando Huella is a small group of volunteers taking care of cat colonies and injured and abandoned cats in the Torre Pacheco area. Dejando Huella started with just five volunteers covering a very wide area.

Ozzy Stays Afloat
Ozzy looked sadly on as his fellow canines kept cool in the pool. With his paralysis, it wasn’t possible for him to join in, but his rescuer was determined that he should enjoy life to the full and put out a plea for a buoyancy jacket so that he could keep cool during the searing heat and have fun with his buddies. Ozzy has his buoyancy jacket and is raring to go! A kind member of the public saw her plea and Ozzy is now geared up to keep cool and enjoy some gentle physiotherapy. We’ll keep you updated with the next episode, so keep checking here on our website…

Little Lola
Little Lola was wandering the streets of Los Alcázares until some very kind people took her to the vet, who cleaned her of fleas and ticks, promising to try to re-home her, so they helped by taking Lola home until a new home could be found for her. To their surprise, one morning, Lola gave birth to 5 puppies and they knew they would need to keep her for at least 6 weeks. The vet managed to find homes for the puppies but not for Lola! She is about 16 months old and an absolute darling. Her rescuers cannot keep her: one is working full-time and his partner is frequently…

Helping Albert
Little Albert is about 3 months old and was found wandering in the road, absolutely covered in ticks. Luckily for him, he was rescued by Los Infiernos Perrera and was taken straight to the vet. He was given a thorough check and an injection to rid him of those nasty, harmful ticks. The ticks really taken their toll on Albert and he was very thin and weak, so a kind LIPS (Los Infiernos Perrera Supporters) volunteer took him home to give him some special care. Albert is now tick-free (but with some damage to his little ears) and is eating (he loves chicken), but he is not out of the…
