On Saturday 25/2, a young racing pigeon arrived at mymother's house near Odiaxere.  I am currently visiting my mother and gave the pigeon wild bird seed and water.  He/she was still at the house thisafternoon, Tuesday 28/2, although I removed the bird seed yesterday to try tomake him leave and find his home loft.  He has plenty of water to drink.  He is happy to approach me butwill not let me get close enough to read the rings on his legs. Would it be possible for somebody to put us in contact witha local pigeon club/association, please?  We would be very grateful and hope somehow to return him to his owner as soon as possible. I have no way of attaching the 2 pics I have of him to this message, unfortunately. In thehope that you can help us and with many thanks (landline 282687282).

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone could help. I need to find the cheapest way to transport a medium sized dog from Carvoeiro to the UK. I have used Euro Pet transpost in the past and it cost about £750 to transport a dog and a cat. I'm not sure the owner of the dog could afford this........Any ideas? Many Thanks

Can someone help!I have a two year of cat, she’s was born with no tail and we had to bottle feed her for weeks when she was born. She never went out of the garden and never went anywhere.. she is pregnant and she was due a few days ago. She has been missing for 4 days now. Is this Normal when pregnant? She hasn’t came back for food or anything.. how will she survive? Will she come back! I’ve looked for her but can’t seem to find her.. someone please if you could give me any information on this!thank you!

Hi,  Does anyone know of or recommend any reputable air transport carriers able to fly our cat from Faro airport to either Gatwick or Southampton Airport? Thanks.

Does anyone know where I can buy electric fencing to keep our dog in the property. We have a really large property 4000sq meters. We have a jack Russell who permanently digs until he makes a whole to escape. He has been neutered about 1 month ago. We also have a dog Bordeax puppy who has now started following the Jack Russell. Bought the puppy to keep the Jack Russell at home. They both get loads of exercise with the family. Someone suggested Dog Fence but it is really only available in the UK.

Here we go again, the same old problem in Portugal - BAD OWNERS not bad dogs but how do I report dogs on an urbanisation in Eastern Algarve that bark and howl constantly and are chained up and live in gardens covered in dog faeces?!!! HELP?

Can anybody offer these two cats a home? Their owner died last October & I have been looking after them ever since. I also have sterilized them. However, now it looks like I need to move home in the next couple of months and really need to find them a permanent home. The male is super friendly & lively and would be best suited to an indoor/outdoor home. His sister is gentle but not tame and would like an outdoor home (I can provide kennel for her) - she just needs someone to feed her. I really don't want to separate them as she relies on his company - they play together, sleep together and eat together. They are near Loule but can be brought anywhere! 

Would anyone know where I can find/buy gambusia fishes in the Algarve? They are famous for swallowing huge quantities of mosquito larvae in your garden pond. As they multiply impressively, perhaps someone would like to downsize the population in their pond.
