The ordinance regulating the fee for the provision of activities and services related to Animal Control City of Cartagena set to article 3 thereof, rates in practice encourage the abandonment of animals and severely limit the adoption of the same as a result of unfair taxes imposed by the PP government team, and provide a service rather than assumed in many cases unaffordable for even more than in private companies citizen cost.

So when a citizen decides to adopt a pet in Cartagena, his noble intention you can go out 117.10 euros, with the rates they have to pay 34,50 euro for microchipping (mandatory character), 16, 20 euros for rabies vaccination and deworming (mandatory character) and if it takes the animal sterilized additional 66.40 euros.

Given this amount of fees, in the city of Murcia user who decides to adopt a pet pay absolutely nothing, the service has a free character.

Moreover, when a citizen of Cartagena is an abandoned street animals and takes it to CATAD (Shelter for Pets) must pay between 14.20 euros and 30.40 euros depending on the weight of the animal, service It is also free in the city of Murcia.

With this rate policy in practice what is causing the Department of Health of the City of Cartagena is to discourage the adoption of animals, and of course the cooperation of citizens to eradicate the presence of abandoned by our neighborhoods and towns, animals since rates that they charge users are completely disproportionate.

From SPCT we demand that the government team PP change rate policy, since the aim of this service must be twofold, firstly mitigate the potential health problems that can cause the presence of abandoned in the streets animals and other foster adopting the same.

The adoption program provides the City of Murcia even for people to adopt an animal a concerted veterinary clinics for a bonus check and if the adopter is over 65 food for the animals for 2 months and one year of vet visits, besides not charge anything for adoption.

Finally note that FDARMUR (Federation of Animal Protection and the Region of Murcia) have attempted to meet with the Councillor for Health to pose several times improvements in service, getting no answer, which demonstrates the interest of the Government team to improve the quality of this service.
