上海動保機構探訪1---上海Jaiya Animal Rescue
這次去上海，目的有兩個。 一是爸媽年紀大了身體也不好，回家陪陪他們；二是想看看上海的動保現狀。 金椒媽告訴我說上海有一家一個外國人Marvin開的Jaiya Animal Rescue (JAR), 網址：http://jargroup.doodlekit.com/home 辦的不錯，另外我在網上還查到了上海小動物保護協會(SSAPA），http://www.ssapa.org.cn/。 很湊巧，在我回上海的20天裏，JAR在6月13日在閔行虹梅路舉辦了一次動物領養活動，SSAPA在6月15日在複興公園舉辦了一次宣傳絕育的活動。兩次我都去了，現在給大家匯報一下，以後有去上海的寵壇家長可以借鑒。最深的感覺就是在國內現在的氛圍下，救助動物實在是太難，太痛苦的一件事。看著無數被拋棄，被虐待的動物，卻沒有時間精力財力去一一救助，有時又要受到層層阻撓，在旁人的冷嘲熱諷冷眼圍觀下， 救助人的心裏，日日受煎熬。我知道寵壇很多家長都是有愛心的熱心人，如果有機會去上海， 抽空去看看吧。
JAR的創辦人Marvin是個亞裔非華人，不會說漢語。 他做動保完全是在全職工作之外的誌願奉獻。 JAR (Jaiya Animal Rescue) 的名字來自於他和太太的小女兒, 不幸於2009年2月14日死於嬰兒猝死症。他的團體和在滬的外國人聯係很多，所以6月13日的領養活動有很多熱心的外國人參加。JAR團隊裏也有一些上海本地的熱心人，經常救助收養流浪貓狗，我這次見到了一個名叫慧慧的年輕人，也是在自己的全職工作之餘奉獻時間精力財力救助貓狗。 還有一個寶山的王阿姨，搞動物救助已經有5-6年的時間了。王阿姨的寶山流浪貓狗的收容基地，是借的別人工廠的房子， JAR也幫助王阿姨擴建了三間屋子，以收留更多的動物，裏麵現有70條左右的狗和大約60隻貓咪。 由於時間和身體的關係，我這次沒有去寶山基地實地。
JAR基本上每個月都會有領養活動，具體日期和時間在他們的網站上都有。6月13日的領養活動有十幾隻小狗和5-6隻小貓到場，每一隻都很幹淨，漂亮。 最後4隻狗狗和5隻貓咪被領養。下麵是我拍的一些照片。

這是王阿姨寶山基地的一窩小狗崽，他們的媽媽還沒來得及被絕育，就被發現已經懷孕了。被一群小家夥們包圍著，王阿姨好高興啊：
這是一隻剛剛做完絕育手術的黑貓小姐：
這是一條小流浪狗------王阿姨的朋友周阿姨一天剛出門，就發現了他，他一直跟著周阿姨不放， 眼神中流露著哀傷。
周阿姨看他可憐，把他帶進了家，他咕咚咕咚的猛喝水，一看就是渴壞了。小狗非常非常乖，不叫不咬不打不鬧。可是周阿姨已經收養了四條狗了，實在無力再照顧第五條，所以才帶他來這個領養活動。 別的狗狗都很興奮，到處聞聞要人抱抱，這個小狗就是很溫柔的在周阿姨腳邊，給他吃火腿腸都不吃，你摸他，他也很溫柔的讓你摸，非常非常的乖，可是他眼神深處的那一絲憂傷，讓人看著很心酸。 小狗當天沒有被人領養走，周阿姨好像也很失望，不知道他們現在怎麽樣了：
小狗挺粘周阿姨的：
一個外國小姑娘不停的拍著他：
這是一些其他待領養的貓咪和狗狗：
JAR的領養活動上有很多精美的宣傳品，內容形式都很好:
關於這次領養活動的具體報道，這裏還有一個連接：

下麵是Marvin向我介紹的JAR的基本情況的英文原件:
As briefly mentioned at adoption day, JAR only started last year （March 2009）. My wife and I named the group in loving memory of our daughter Jaiya Kristina who unfortunately passed away from SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) on February 14th, 2009. My wife and I love animals and have always been saving strays or abandoned dogs since arriving in China. It is frustrating that there are no policies or laws to protect animals in the country, however, I am a little glad that there are active groups who are supporting and are compassionate about saving vulnerable animals. It's not enough but at least we can save as much as we can depending on the resources available to us.
I am working hard in trying to gain international help and seeking more exposure of the group and other organizations to the city and all over. Education is important but as you know this will take time.
My wife and I are working full time. JAR has become a '2nd' job for me as maintaining the blog and website takes time, communication with rescuers, foster parents and potential adopters, organizing adoption days, enhancing or providing help to other rescue groups, reaching out for sponsorships, doing workshops and educating students, rescue projects, trap/neuter release projects and many more. I am blessed to have a few people who are willing to volunteer and help out. Without them, things would have been a little haywire!
I currently have approx 35 - 40 rescuers who have animals in their homes, approx 20 active foster parents (always seeking for more for emergencies), approx 10 active volunteers however, I have a strong backing from the Shanghai American School where I have 20 - 30 students available to help (like what they did for the Baoshan Project). I now have BISS (British International School，Shanghai) interested in supporting our group too.
We have approx 70 dogs (only 40+ on the website as many are pending due to health/character issues, age etc), and approx 60 cats/kittens. Nearly every day I receive a call or emails asking us to provide homes for animals that people find on the streets, bushes etc. Unfortunately, I don't have the resources (shelter or funds) to help hence I ask the rescuer to look after the animal temporarily if they can. It is hard to say no as I always want to help the animals found, but I don't want to overwhelm the group let alone myself. The timing is terrible as many potential families have gone back to their home country for the summer holiday and its the season for finding kittens/puppies. We can only do so much.
We hold Adoption Days every month. This year is booked except August. Please see the link of all our AD dates:

I am going to be organizing (hopefully) a Fundraising event and sell products to raise money not only for JAR but also other organizations we support. Further information about our group check the links below:
