FEEL GOOD... with the 2014 Rifugio Fata Calendar!

As James Brown so famously put it, I FEEEEEL good! 

Abraham Lincoln said, "When I do good, I feel good." That's a great motto to live by.

Bartolo (below) says, "If you want to FEEEEL good, it's simple. Order the 2014 Rifugio Fata calendar TODAY!" 

The 2014 Rifugio Fata calendar is ready! Order yours today and support our beautiful four-legged friends in Southern Italy. It's a feel-good choice that will last all year. The adorable photos will make you smile, and seeing the calendar every day will give you the warm fuzzy feeling that comes from knowing you made a difference to this amazing organization, and to these lovely doggies in need.

Bartolo is one of the many happy stories to come out of Rifugio Fata this year. He was rescued by the team and, thanks to their hard work, he was recently adopted into a loving home. As you can see, Bartolo now knows what 'feeling good' really feels like! What a lucky boy. Congratulations Bartolo!

Ordering is easy. The cost of the calendar is 10 Euros, plus 2.50 Euros postage, within mainland Europe. (15 Euros, including postage, for the UK and the US.) Thanks to the support of a generous sponsor who is funding the printing costs, ALL proceeds from the calendars will go towards the care of Rifugio Fata's 160+ rescue dogs, the running costs of the shelter and their community programs. 

For just 12.50 Euros, you can FEEEEEL good, every day in 2014. And the Rifugio Fata doggies will love you forever! Or you can give the gift of feelin' good to a friend or family member by sending them a calendar. It takes just two simple steps:

1) Make your payment of 12.50 Euros (or 15 Euros for UK/US) via any of the following options:

Artu (below) just found a loving family, too. Rescued by the Rifugio Fata team this summer, little Artu now knows the profound joy of having a place he can call home.

Belin (below) was also rescued by the team, and recently adopted into a loving home. She is now enjoying her own lovely soft bed!

Thank you for your support. Wishing you a feel-good festive season and all the best for 2014!

Oscar winner!

You might remember this adorable little boy from our puppy pics, a couple of posts ago...

His name is Oscar, and he is a winner! Francesca and the team managed to raise the funds to send a group of puppies to the North last week, and Oscar was one of them. Francesca works with an amazing woman living near Turin. She organizes shelter placements for Rifugio Fata doggies in Northern Italy, where they have a much better chance of getting adopted. 

Little Oscar arrived late in the evening, after the shelter was closed. A very kind family agreed to take him in for the night and drop him off at the shelter the next morning. 

And guess what happened...? 

They fell in love with him and kept him! 

Congratulations Oscar! From the streets of Calabria, into the arms of a loving family... It doesn't get much better than that. Rifugio Fata makes another little doggy's dream come true!
