Homeless child - winner of the contest about homeless animals !ROLDA and its partners, the local newspaper "Viata Libera"and "Arcelor Mittal" Galati - organized a contest addressed to entire local community,to humans inspired by their pets and/or animals they rescued.
Animal lovers were invited to send a brief story (max 30 lines) about how their pet influenced at some point the "writer" life, impressing with their sincere love, loyalty and intelligence or teaching us a lesson about what real commitment and devotion means.
Mihai Cristian Secara (12 years old) is the winner of the contest organized in partnership with local media.
The touching letter Mihai wrote about his parrot BOBI was selected between others 85 letters we received and impressed the jury - a true love' lesson of an abandoned child speaking about his pet with sincerity and pure commitment.
Between all 86 letters received describing its heroes ( 32 cats, 21 dogs,10 parrots,few sparrows) we selected :
II place: Nico the doggy written by Mihai Stroila
III place:Miky the cat written by Mirela Catalina Felea
4 honorable mentions:Tanu the cat, written by Oana Lorelei Lungu;Iuri the boxer, written by Ovidiu Besoiu ;Grasu the cat,written by Carmen Popescu and Alin the puppy, written by Ortansa Zlata.
(photo: Oana Lorelei Lungu, 13 years old -a winner teaching us that compassion and real commitment for animals !)
