Litter of six puppies abandoned in Malta’s streets

Aug 30 2022

A litter of tiny and fragile puppies were rescued by Animal Welfare yesterday.

Posting to Facebook, ‘Rescued is my Favourite Breed – Lulu Arpa’, posted images of the adorable puppies, who are currently being kept warm with hot water bottles and cosy bedding.

Four of the six puppies reportedly need extra attention as they are unable to stand. One of them, named Tiny, requires even more care due to his state.

‘We sadly share this world with people that are so wicked that they throw fragile innocent creatures out in the streets to die alone, terrified and in pain!!! It is beyond heartbreaking. Way beyond’ said the post.

The idea behind this project is to not only give a tribute to the beloved series but also create a series which will entertain and teach at the same time.

‘Content is practically being consumed on a daily basis by young children. The problem is that they are faced with very limited content in Maltese, especially cartoons, when they do so.’

Produced in a 2D hand drawn animation style, the series will feature subtitles for all those watching to read and thus boost the fluency in the language.

Turi Animation Studio have been working on this project for over a year. With trust handed by the Arts Council Malta, a team of 5 people are immensely excited to bring this project to life.
