We have received an urgent request for help for help from Ankara Haykod Shelter.

The images you are about to see were obtained at the HAYKOD shelter, in Ankara. HAYKOD, a hoarder’s nest run by Gamze Erkok, the infamous internet slanderer currently living in the US.

There is urgent need for food for the holiday period, shelter vehicle is broken down so collection of food is out of
question. We have also received information that there is an old lady and one worker at the shelter, they are in trouble.Why doesn’t anyone in Ankara go and support this place? What are the volunteers in Ankara doing? The holidays are coming, the vehicle is broken.
Ankara Haykod Shelter must be visited urgently and supported for cleaning up and feeding.

We rescued those animals from Fathma Balkanli, an animal hoarder running a “shelter”, the Besiktas Cevre ve Sokak Hayvanlari Dernegi. This was the shelter.
Yesterday there was an annoucement on the press.. she claims she needs to raise 1500 liras so that her “shelter” is not closed down..

You can all give her a call and tell her youve seen this images.. she certainly knows about them…

Although western abla feminists and their younger counterparts, second-wave feminists, have more or less successfully put the nail in Freud’s coffin, the good Viennese gentleman and his psychoanalytical theories are alive and well, prospering actually, in emerging nations. If you look carefully enough, one can see Sigmund along Istikal surveying middle-aged passers-by and, more particularly for the purposes of this article, hear his analysis on the administration of some public animal shelters.

Freud has talked long and extensively on the link between sexual repression and female hysteria and/or anxiety disorders. (So much so, that several of his finer points have been challenged by his successors—a good sign of a successful theory.) Freud’s thesis has been that societies which sexually repress individuals, particularly women, create neurasthenia and anxiety disorders.

Later day Freudians, such as Alice Miller*, have further argued that particular parenting styles—obsession with toilet training and corporal punishment—belong to narcissistic mothers and fathers who cannot see the child as an individual in its own right, deserving and requiring unconditional love. Such parents seek to control the child to fulfill their own unmet needs, thus ignoring, for example, a child’s behavior as age related or developmental. Such children, in turn, are denied control over their own bodies in a culture which holds cleanliness next to godliness, viewing natural healthy impulses and needs as chaotic forces needing to be repressed. By using techniques such as humiliation and shame, the parent controls the child (and thus his or her own particular demons) but at great cost to the child.

In the Drama of the Gifted Child, for example, Miller has argued that such parents ‘create’ high achieving kids but in failing to see the child for who s/he is, the ‘good’ mothers and fathers provide the recipe for adult unhappiness in all its charming forms–alcoholism, sexual dysfunction, depression, eating disorders, and neuroses. Miller has also taken institutionalized religion and authoritarian regimes to task: in For Your Own Good and Thou Shalt Not Be Aware: Society’s Betrayal of the Child, she has argued how child abuse has been accepted and excused by the Church; in Breaking Down the Wall of Silence, she examines the result of such ‘systematic’ parenting in the product of modern day horrors such as Adolph Hitler and Nicolae Ceausescu.

If, for the sake of argument, we apply the rough outlines of this scenario to the current administration of animal shelters, individuals like Asude Ustaoglu, we can see Doctors Freud and Miller busily scribbling notes on the patients perched on the barinak couch.

Lets Adopt has discussed the sociology of animal hoarding; we’d now like to promulgate the thesis that such behaviors need to be seen as animal abuse. Animal hoarding reflects much of the narcissistic tendencies that psychoanalysts have delineated: how under the guise of maternal ‘caring,’ animals are systemically abused and neglected—their real needs, as animals, not as surrogate children to relive their parents’ traumas, are erased; how citizens close their eyes to what they instinctively know to be abuse behind shelter gates.

Warehousing animals, ignoring our role as protectors in providing medical care such as neutering and sterilization, and, most importantly–giving immunity to unhealthy individuals to perpetuate and play out unresolved neuroses of their own, makes us all complicit in the cycle of abuse.

 Silence implies consent.

The Other: Pis Yahudi/Ermeni/Espanol

What would a psychoanalytic discussion about animals be without including the topic of sex? The West has willingly (almost too willingly in its love affair with itself) admitted how its sexual obsession with the East—how 18th and 19th century western cultural products such as novels and paintings depicting, let’s say, harems and seraglios reveal more about repressed western sexual fantasies than the silenced lives of the eunuchs and odalisques actually inhabiting those worlds. In other words, the works of Flaubert, Shelley, Goethe, Moore, even the later day Marguerites Yourcenar and Duras really depict their own homosexuality, sexual fantasies of domination and control displaced upon a ‘virgin; landscape exploited for their own needs. The ‘other’ is what social theorists such as Edward Said in Orientalism have correctly indicated is really the viewers themselves—their displacement of their own fantasies Uan unwitting subject. Like Said, Modder in The Jew in the Literature of England presents “Anti-Jewish feeling is here  proved to be a symptom of existing social ills.”

The Jew, the Armenian, the Mediterranean Italian or Spaniard becomes the convenient repository for the unacceptable, ‘darker’ human needs–bottled up sex and anger, for example. So, a Jew is not a Jew; a Spaniard is not a Spaniard’ but the litmus or Rorschach Inkblot test for a culture’s own anxiety about, maybe, sexuality and its expression. When we hear the words, Pis Yahudi/Ermeni/Espanol (and see the stones that come flying with it), what we are really seeing is the product of tyrannical parenting 50 years ago–that 1940’s or 50’s parent who emotionally blinded a child. That child, now a middle-aged individual, repeats the cycle of abuse, this time, upon the defenseless animals under their control.

Anyone exposing this unhealthy dynamic risks, besides a stone to the head, being labeled the Other— who must be marginalized and humiliated much in the same way the stone thrower was parented.

If the 20th century was the movement to reveal humanity’s abuse upon one another and tell the stories of silenced victims, perhaps the work of the 21st century belongs to reveal and reform our relationship with animals. Our growing concerns for our natural environment reflect an awakening awareness that animals require respect from caregivers and an acceptance–not denial– of their true needs.

Let’s get started.

Let’s Adopt.

Uyelerimizden biri, gecen Cumartesi Uskudar’daki hayvan baranagini ziyaret etmeye karar verdi, hayvansever maskesi altinda, hayvan toplayan iki kisinin (Asude Ustaoğlu ve Sultan Gulyar) sorumsuzca islettigi bir yer.

Arkadasimiz oraya vardiginda, evlat edinebilecegi kopekleri gormek
istedi. Orada bulunan isciler, hangi hayvanlari alabileceklerini
bilemediklerini, fakat yakinlarinda bulunan 2 yavruyu goturebilecegini
soylemisler. Biz onlari Zorro ve Zorra diye adlandirdik.

Baska hic bir kontrol olmadan, soru sormadan, kisiligi sorgulanmdan…Al bu iki yavruyu ve git ! Asi karnesi verilmedi. Ne de veterinerden tibbi gecmisleriyle ilgili herhangi bir sey.

Arkadasimiz bu iki kopegi alip, veterinere goturdu ve… süpriz!!!!! Iki köpekde ‘Parvo’ya -kanli ishal’e yakalanmislardi. Su anda ikisi de hayatlari icin savasiyorlar.

‘Let’s Adopt’ ve ‘Simba’ fonu  kopeklerin veteriner faturalarini karsilayacak.

Neden bu iki kopek kanli ishale yakalandi ? Cunku Asude Ustaoglu, kopekler geldiklerinde asilatmamisti.. Nedeni mi?  Cunku hayvanlari alip, ‘kolleksiyonlarina’ larina katmak daha kolaydi.

Biz elimizden geleni yapip Zorro ve Zorrayi kurtarmaya calisacagiz ama
bu durum boyle kalmayacak.

Butun uyelerimizden yardim istiyoruz. Eger Uskudar hayvan baranagina gidip bu korkunc durumun fotograflarini cekebilirlerse minnettar kalacagiz.  Sakin bu isyerini gonullu olarak isleten ‘deli kadinlarin’ sizi durdurmasini izin vermeyin. Baranak ummumi bir yerdedir ve sizi durduracak herhangi bir yasal gerekceleri yoktur.  Eger sizi durdurmaya calisirlarsa,bunuda lutfen fotoraflayin.

Sizden bu canavarlarin elinden, saglikli bir hayvani kurtarmanizi rica edecegiz.

Bu kopegi bir veterinere goturmenizi isteyecegiz. (tarafimizca onaylanan Istanbul’daki veterinerlerin listesini verecegiz) ve ‘Let’s Adopt’  ona bir yuva bulana kadar sorumlulugunu ustlenmenizi isteyecegiz.

Uskudar barinagi gibi yerlerin varoluslarin tek bir sebebi vardir.. Cunku insanlar oraya gitmezler.  Kapali duvarlar arasinda bir grup ’deli kadin’  en temel gudulerini serbest birakiyorlar.

Bu tur insanlarin ciddi bir kontrolden gecme vaktidir.

Lutfen Uskudar Baranaklarinda bulunan kolleksiyoncularin elinden bir kopek kurtarin !!
Uskudar baranaginin durumunu ve kurtarilan butun hayvanlarin fotoraflarini, Let’s Adopt’da buna ozel olarak acilan yeni bir blogda yayinlayacagiz.

Last Saturday one of our members decided to pay a visit to the Uskudar Shelter, an abject place run by two animal hoarders maskerading as ”animal lovers”, Asude Ustaoğlu and Sultan Gulyar, pictured below..

Upon arrival our friend requested to be shown the dogs for adoption.
The response of the workers were that they didn’t know what dogs were for adoption but that she could take this two pups. We called them Zorro and Zorra.

There were no further checks, no questions asked, no evaluation of character.. Take this two pups and go!. No vaccination carnets were given to us. No records of any form of veterinary care.

Our friend took both dogs to her vet and surprise surprise!!! Both dogs were dianosed with Parvo. Both of them are currently fighting for their life.

Let’s Adopt and the Simba Fund will be taking care of their veterinary bills.

Why did those two dogs have Parvo? Because Asude Ustaoğlu did not bother vaccinating them upon arrival. Why do so? Its easier to drop an animal with the rest of the “collection”.

We will do our best to save Zorro and Zorra but this won’t stay like this.

We are hereby making an appeal to all our members. We would be very grateful if you could visit the Uskudar Shelter and take as many pictures of the appalling conditions in the premises. Don’t be intimidated by the “crazy women” that run the place as “volonteers” . The shelter is a public location and they have absolutely no legal authority to stop you. If they tried to stop you pls take pictures of them doing so.

We will then pls ask you to rescue a healthy animal from those monsters.

We will please ask you to take the dog to a vet (we will give you the
details of our approved vets in Istanbul) an take responsibility for
the animal whilst Let’s Adopt finds him a final home.

The one and only reason why shelters like Uskudar exist is because people never go there. Behind closed walls a group of “crazy women” can give free rein to their lowest instincts.

Its time for this people to go through a serious reality check.

Please rescue a dog from the animal hoarders at the Uskudar shelter today!!.

The pictures of all animal rescued as well as the conditions at the Uskudar shelter will be published in a new blog started to this purpose:
