A family from Sancti Spíritus has announced a reward of $200 for anyone who finds and returns their missing dog. Vivian González Lorenzo posted on the Facebook group “SOS: Lost Pets in Cuba” that their pet, which appears to be a dachshund, went missing in the Garaita area near a local daycare center.
The post specifies that any information should be communicated to Nelvis Cruz at the telephone number 53808941.
In a separate incident, a family from Santiago de Cuba offered a reward of 5,000 Cuban pesos to recover their lost Pekingese. The small dog, named "King," was last seen on 5th Street in the Mariana de la Torre neighborhood, close to their home, according to local reporter Yosmany Mayeta Labrada on Facebook.
Recently, another Cuban resident sought help to find her dog named Loky and offered a reward for its return. Marlene Ramírez reported on Facebook that her chihuahua went missing at 12:00 PM and, in desperation, offered a reward of 5,000 pesos to anyone who brings him back.
Despite the harsh economic crisis in Cuba, animal protectors and pet owners are making significant efforts to safeguard animals. They not only offer rewards for finding lost dogs and cats, but also strive to maintain their health, demonstrating a strong commitment to animal welfare.
Last Monday, a social media user posted an urgent and desperate announcement, seeking a dog that could donate blood to her pet in exchange for a monetary reward. Irela Sánchez, a resident of Havana, requested help on Facebook to find a dog older than two years and weighing at least 25 kilograms that could serve as a blood donor for her pet. She offered an unspecified sum of money in return.
