The power of numbers
If all 8 of us make it our goal to find just 8 new members each will will have 64 members.
If we then ask those 64 people to go find just 8 new members each, our network will have grown to 512 members.
Now here's where it gets exciting!
If those 512 people find just 8 each we will have 4096 members, if those 4096 go find just 8 each, our network will have grown to 32,768 YES THIRTY TWO THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND SIXTY EIGHT people!

The aim of our network is to spread the word about a very hard working worthwhile UK based charity helping dogs and cats in Greece. Social networking is one of the fastest ways to spread the word on the internet, please use this network to help us help the Friends of the Strays of Greece.
Use this space to keep in touch with other like minded people, keep in touch with friends and family. Share photos, video, start a discussion, write your own blog and much more.
If you have rescued a dog or cat, tell us about it - let's have some photos, videos, stories - Share the information. If you support or know of other related causes - promote them here!
Let's make this the 'Facebook' for The Friends Of The Strays Of Greece and other worthwhile animal welfare groups.
How can you help?
Join us today! Then tell all your friends - Help us spread the word while you enjoy social networking with friends, family, workmates etc.
For anyone new, here's a little of what we are about...
How do you get rid of your rubbish? Dump it outside for the dustman? Take it to the tip?
In Greece that's how many people get rid of their unwanted animals.
We actually have photos of puppies left on a rubbish tip, and of dumped kittens - one in a dustbin, and another in a flower pot.
Very few cats and dogs have responsible owners in Greece, and most have a very short and miserable existence. And although there are animal welfare laws, they are seldom, if ever, enforced, and therefore there are thousands of stray, sick, and injured animals with no access to things we take for granted in Britain:
Food and Water
Shelter
Routine Vaccination
Preventative treatments against diseases spread by parasites
During the tourist season many survive thanks to the tourists, who feel sad at their plight, and feed them scraps. Most tavernas have throngs of stray cats and dogs begging for their existence, but when the tourists leave there is no food supply, and so they die of starvation and disease.
Those that do survive they frequently poisoned - just a normal way of life to so many Greeks, even though this is illegal practice.
