Alley Cat Allies Achieves a Victory in Court, Exposing National Park Service's Underhanded Tactics

SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO: Alley Cat Allies, the leader of the global movement to protect cats and kittens, has achieved a critical legal victory against the National Park Service (NPS) and its plan to eradicate cats from Puerto Rico’s San Juan National Historic Site. The United States District Court for the District of Columbia has denied the NPS’ attempt to transfer the Alley Cat Allies lawsuit to a court in Puerto Rico.

After this failed maneuver, the NPS is now hastening the implementation of its brutal plan before the court can determine its legality. It plans to round up cats on the historic site starting October 1, 2024.

“The NPS tried to delay by transferring the case and, now that the court has seen through its tactic, is acting in bad faith by moving forward in a rush,” said Yonaton Aronoff, a lawyer representing Alley Cat Allies. “Alley Cat Allies insists that the NPS cease any further steps in its deadly plan against Puerto Rico’s cats or we will seek appropriate relief.”

Alley Cat Allies argues that the NPS’s eradication plan violates the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and is arbitrary and capricious under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA).

The plan, which includes trapping, removing, and “euthanizing” cats, is cruel and ineffective. Removing the cats creates a vacuum, which cats living in San Juan will quickly move into the historic site to fill. The NPS is only setting itself up for an endless cycle of killing rather than supporting humane, effective approaches like Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR).

The court’s decision is an important step forward, and Alley Cat Allies remains committed to holding the NPS accountable and protecting Puerto Rico’s community cats.

The people of Puerto Rico have voiced their opposition to the NPS plan. They, and Alley Cat Allies, recognize the threatened cats as community members who are woven into Puerto Rican culture and history. We call on the NPS to immediately halt its cruel plan and engage in a transparent, accountable process that respects the law, the lives of the cats, and the community’s wishes. Alley Cat Allies will not stop fighting until it does.

Our Activities

Cow Protection

Protection As of today, over 21,000 stray and destitute Desi Indian cows, bulls, and their progenies are being sheltered in our Gaurakshashala. These animals are brought to us through various channels, including the police, government agencies, NGOs, and farmers. We provide them with a second chance at life, offering complete care, food, and shelter, along with a fully equipped in-house medical facility.

Shelter Ensuring proper shelter for the rescued gauvansh is a top priority. We have constructed spacious shelters with large shades to accommodate the growing number of protected cows. We continue building new cow sheds to meet increasing demands and provide a comfortable living environment, creating a holy and safe space for these precious gauvansh.

Dry Fodder Storage We have huge storage facilities capable of storing approximately 4 million kg of dry husk, which is essential for cow food. Annually, we require at least 9 million kg of dry fodder. Our team regularly inspects and maintains the storage facility to ensure the husk remains fresh and free from contamination.

Nourishment/Fodder Our gauvansh are fed a carefully crafted mixture of dry fodder, green fodder, grains, mustard cake, and jaggery. This balanced diet is provided twice a day, ensuring they receive essential nutrients for their overall well-being.

Medical Facility We have doctors available 24/7, providing comprehensive in-house medical facilities with ample stocks of necessary medicines and vaccinations. Our services include both routine medical assistance and emergency support for injured or sick cows, ensuring prompt and effective medical help.

Free Milk Distribution The small quantity of milk produced in our gaushala is freely distributed to saints, gausewaks, ashrams, and charitable hospitals in Haridwar and Rishikesh. We do not engage in the commercial sale of milk or milk products, supporting the well-being and nutritional needs of dedicated individuals and organizations.

Protection Drive We continuously run a protection drive to bring stray and destitute Desi mother cows and bulls to our gaushala. Starting with 11 cows in 2011, we are now sheltering and protecting over 21,000 gauvansh, reflecting our unwavering dedication to their welfare.

Breeding Research is underway to enhance the genetic traits of indigenous cows for disease resistance, adaptability, and higher milk production. Our breeding programs aim to create a sustainable ecosystem where farmers are encouraged to keep these indigenous cows, promoting traditional agricultural practices.

Vocational Training Programs We conduct vocational training on the importance of Desi cows and bulls, manufacturing products like dhoop, phenyl, and cosmetics, and promoting organic farming. These initiatives educate farmers and create a network of skilled individuals championing sustainable agriculture and cow protection.

Cultivation of Green Fodder We cultivate various types of green fodder to ensure a consistent supply, addressing market scarcity. This initiative provides a balanced and wholesome diet for our gauvansh, enhancing their overall health and well-being.

Distribution of Bulls on a Returnable Basis Our program provides high-quality bulls for farming and breeding purposes to farmers on a returnable basis. This supports traditional agricultural practices and the preservation of indigenous cow breeds, empowering farmers and promoting sustainable farming.

Generation of Electricity Our Gaurakshashala utilizes renewable energy through gobar gas plants and biogas generators for power and cooking purposes. Solar water pumps and street lights, along with a 200 KVA solar power genset, meet our power requirements, minimizing our carbon footprint and promoting environmentally friendly practices.

Organic Farming We promote the cultivation of grains, vegetables, and green fodder, supporting organic farming by encouraging pesticide-free crops and eco-friendly practices. Our mission is to convert surrounding villages to organic farming, benefiting society with chemical-free food and healthier lifestyles.

BIO CNG Plant Daily, we convert 25,000 kg of cow dung into CNG gas and manure, producing clean and renewable energy while creating organic fertilizers. This process maximizes the value of cow dung and minimizes waste, fostering a sustainable and efficient resource utilization cycle.

Bio and Organic Fertilizer Unit We manufacture organic manure from cow dung and slurry, promoting organic farming with minimal-cost products. This initiative aims to reduce the use of chemical pesticides, fostering healthier lives and wider acceptance of indigenous cows.

Calamity Support

We consistently offer support and assistance to those affected by calamities:

MP Flood (2021): Provided food and shelter to thousands of affected people.

Uttarakhand Flood (2013): Ran camps for months, offering relief, food, and lifesaving drugs to thousands.

Food Distribution

During the COVID-19 pandemic, our gaushala distributed food to thousands of affected families, sent supplies to remote regions, and ran food camps. We also regularly send truckloads of supplies to remote locations like Badrinath and Gangotri and run multiple camps to provide meals to those in need.

Bhandara

Our Bhandara for saints and others runs throughout the year. We regularly send vehicle loads of vegetables, grains, and other items for saints and tapaswis living in hilly regions like Badrinath and Gangotri, supporting their spiritual pursuits and fostering a sense of unity and care within the community.

Yagya and Cultural Events

Our gaushala is blessed with a magnificent yagya mandap situated on the serene banks of Ma Ganga, where accomplished Vedic Brahmins conduct sacred rituals. These spiritual endeavors create an atmosphere of divine grace and positive energy, fostering a deep connection with spirituality and celebrating our rich cultural heritage.

Hospital

We provide medical services through our dedicated hospital, D S Global Heart Care, at minimal or no cost to the needy in Uttarakhand. Our primary focus is to ensure accessible healthcare for all, contributing to the well-being and welfare of the community.

cw: attempted animal cruelty (it's foiled, don't worry)

Remus Lupin x fem!reader ♡ 608 words

You shush Remus mid-sentence. 

He’s not so much offended as surprised. Curious, too. Your brow is wrinkled as if you’ve forgotten something and you’re trying to recall what it is. “Did you—”

“Wait, wait, shh.” 

Remus pauses for a few seconds while you cock your head, looking seemingly at nothing. 

“Dove,” he says quietly, “if you don’t want to hear about the book, it’s—”

“No, sorry.” You set a hand on his shoulder, still looking away from him. “Do you hear that?” 

“Hear what?” 

“It’s…” Your brows bunch even closer together, and then you’re moving, off the sidewalk and onto someone’s grass. 

Remus follows, because that’s what he does with you, apparently. You go around the side of the house, and then he hears it. A faint, desperate mewling.

“Oh, oh my god,” you breathe, your footsteps hastening. Remus has to lengthen his strides to catch up to you. When he gets closer, he sees you’ve found a cat stuck in a tree. 

Or, hardly. More like a kitten stuck in a sapling. It's small and black and trembling on a branch about the same height as Remus’ chest, which it’s bound to by a thin rope around its neck. The rope looks frayed and loosely tied, like it might just unravel if the kitten were to try and jump down, but he and the kitten seem in agreement that it’s hardly worth the risk. The poor thing’s cries worsen when it sees you coming towards it. 

“Oh, poor baby.” You reach out to touch it. It hisses at you but doesn’t snap its teeth, all bark and no bite. “Did somebody tie it here? Who would do this?” 

“I don’t know,” Remus answers honestly. 

The kitten’s trepidation of you wears off quickly, cautious dark eyes watching as you use a knuckle to rub gently underneath its chin. When it starts purring, Remus coos. 

“Hello, darling,” he murmurs, trying his hand at scratching between its ears. The kitten’s eyes close blissfully, the rest of its fear seemingly evaporating. A trusting nature coaxed out by less than a minute of gentleness. Remus hates to think of what prior treatment caused it to tremble and hiss. “Would you like to get out of here?” 

The rope is tied just loosely enough that Remus can get his fingers in between it and the kitten’s neck, the knot coming undone with a few tugs. You lift the kitten out of the tree as soon as it’s freed, cradling it close to your chest. 

“Hi, sweet baby,” you coo in a voice like spun sugar, light and sweet. “Oh, you’re such a love, aren’t you? It’s okay.” 

Your new friend seems content to be coddled. It curls up in your hands and purrs loud enough that even Remus can hear it rumbling like a heart-aching little motor. 

“It’s so little.” You sound awed, looking down at the kitten with pure adoration. Remus can’t help smiling at you with much the same sentiment. “Can we take it home? Just until we find it a good family.”

“Sure, dovey.” His own voice matches your soft tone. “I think we should. It certainly can’t stay here.” 

“No.” You frown. It’s more than justified, but Remus finds he can’t abide it anyway. He kisses your downturnt lips. 

“We’ll pick up some food and treats on the way home,” he says. 

“Oh!” Your face lights up. “I saw some little bat wings in the store last week, wouldn’t that be cute? It could be a tiny bat for Halloween.” 

Remus smiles and agrees. He knows already that this kitten isn’t going to any family other than your own.

This is great journalism on animal welfare!

Germany has now banned "macerating"/grinding up/shredding male baby chicks, who egg farmers typically kill because these "brother roosters" can't lay eggs.

But my first question to that is, "Where will they go instead?"

DW, a German documentary service, looks at the alternatives that people could do, why those options aren't always realized, and they follow the chicks to see where they do tend to end up.
