My husband and I returned from a "vacation" in Greece this week after having spent time in Athens, Mykonos, Rhodes, Lindos, Patmos and a trip to Delphi. It was the most depressing trip I have ever taken, and I couldn't wait to leave. Seeing all the homeless cats and dogs living on the streets and in the archeological sites broke my heart. We spent most of our time trying to feed each animal we saw. Litters of kittens were literally living under cars. One tiny kitten near the museum at Delphi was dragging itself around with a broken foot/leg and could not get to the food before all of the other cats ate it. I told one man at the information desk at Lindos that they need to have the cats neutered and he said, "The man upstairs decides who has babies". Considering all of the fur shops I saw in Greece and the fact that people kill animals all the time for food, I don't think the argument that humans can't interfere in the life of an animal applies. The government of Greece needs to pay animal rescue organizations to trap, neuter and re-release the animals in a place where they will be safe from traffic, fed daily, given water and provided with veterinary care when sick or injured. The current situation in Greece is inhumane, uncivilized and shameful. When listening to our guide talk about the history of Greece and the various invasions, I thought to myself, I hope someone invades them again. Hopefully the invaders will be more compassionate to animals.

My dog, six cats and chickens were poisoned by a shepherd who I know. because he wasnt seen doing the act nothing could be done. our grandchildren had gone home a short time before. The youngest child is a toddler. I have asked the authorities what they would do if our grandchild had died. Shrug their shoulders and say thats the greeks for you. Our dog suffered an agonising death. It took 30 mins for him to die in the back of our car.

why your country lets the abuse of animmals go on i will never visit and give you my money, i tell every body about the cruelty and show them the pictures of dogs poisoned and hung etc annd they soon agree that greece is not a place they want to spend there money in.!!!!!! why cant you put into place some sort of protection/law for the protection of the animals. surely that will show that as a country you are listening to peoples concerns and views and surley realise that the greeks come across as heartless /inhumen THUGS/COWARDS!!!! that they can beat/poison/torture a defenceless animal that cant speak or answer back!!! something needs to be done and soon. why dont you act and stop this barbaric ways that some of your people take part in

This is my first visit to Greece and I am in total shock and disgust of the treatment of animal welfare in this country. All living things are a gift from God and should be treated with dignity and respect!

Greece is viewed the world over as barbaric and inhumane toward non-human animals. BOYCOTT Greece until it demonstrates humanity toward all living creatures. I will NOT step foot in Greece until that happens.
