Water needed and big fire in Spain (shelter in need)

[Miranda60]

they still don't have water in their well, but survive on the water that they buy.
The dogs don't notice there's a shortage when it comes to drinking; only that their swimming pools are only half full and they have to miss their daily 'waterfall' on their bodies to cool down a bit in the immense heat, every day.
But the main thing is they are safe….. the fire was so close, on top of the shelter. they could feel the heat, standing on our mountain. The smoke was awful, thick, sickening…. they have made such a narrow escape….

The fire brigade has stated the situation is "in control"…. But the smouldering fires that are everwhere are still very dangerous, they all fear the fire will start again as it is so dry.
The COSTA DEL SOL, once a beautiful paradise, has, in only a couple of hours, changed into a depressing, lifeless landscape….. black, scarred, dead….it is so saddening to see this once beautiful nature swept away by these enormous camp fires. The beauty is gone for a long, long time. Over a 1000 hectares are demolished.

This fire has taken humans and animals in its fierce attack. Especially animals that were left behind became victims of the flames, like dogs that were chained and had no chance at all. There is a lot of misery, sadness and grief; many injured, one person lost his life. No one speaks about the animals that are gone, while we took several dogs with rescue in their van last Thursday night, when they went back to rescue the last two dogs at Diane's house (volunteer)… An old boy lay in front of her house, very thirsty and one leg broken…. Another one was on the road and followed us immediately. They have been picked up from the refugio by their owners already, but at that time, when they needed them most, their owners had completely forgotten to take care of them…

The economic situation is very worrying; it will take many years to recover. Many houses have burnt down, people are homeless, complete families own nothing more than the clothes they were wearing that night…as if the crisis in Spain wasn't bad enough already.
Let us hope faith will change – the situation is very, very bad.
