They continue to spread anti-speciesism and anarchism whenever they can.<\/p>\n<p>A few months ago, we tried to arrange Panda\u2019s early release through a prison benefit, but as expected, it went poorly. We have a new release date for both comrades almost at the end of the year. We hope things go better this time; if not, we can only wait for the sentence to be served.<\/p>\n<p>One of our last posts was about how the many animals live inside prisons.<\/p>\n<p>Despite sometimes providing emotional support for the prisoners, they lack the basic conditions for their well-being. For example, there\u2019s no veterinarian here, no sterilization campaigns, and they don\u2019t even allow cat food. So, caring for them is very difficult.<\/p>\n<p>However, despite all these difficulties, our comrades took care of two litters of newborn kittens, as well as their mothers and other cats living there. They spent weeks providing them with all the necessary care and inventing ways to feed them.<\/p>\n<p>Then, when they were older, we took them out one by one and found them homes, also taking care of their food and their visits to the vet.<\/p>\n<p>We also temporarily took care of a kitten who became quadriplegic inside the prison. We gave him all the care we could until he couldn\u2019t take it anymore and had to be put to sleep. We wanted to make this story public because we believe it\u2019s important to tell how our comrades continue to carry out small anti-speciesist actions inside the prison, seeking to break the apathy and indifference of the other prisoners, so that these actions can be replicated and everyone knows that we can do something whenever we can, that even in very hostile circumstances our comrades were able to. And it was also because we needed financial contributions, since both feeding and paying veterinary care for all the kittens meant great expenses. At the same time, we had to continue to cover all the prison\u2019s expenses.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve been holding activities, information days, gigs, and various other opportunities to raise funds for all of this.<\/p>\n<p>Our comrades also participate with written contributions whenever they can and when needed, to create a constant connection between the streets and the prison.<\/p>\n<p>Please if you can donate, do so on paypal:<\/p>\n<p>The account is:\u00a0Solidaridad.antiespecista4@gmail.com<\/p>\n<p>Our contact emails are:\u00a0Solidaridad.antiespecista4@gmail.com\u00a0Solidaridadantiespecista4@autistici.org.<\/p>\n<p>We thank you for the support you\u2019ve always given us; we appreciate your constant support for us and our comrades in prison.
