I keep seeing these FB videos of kind folk opening a #Water tap a trickle for a thirsty #animal, usually a wandering #cat but its included #squirrels - this is clearly a good deed, but I'm curious about what part(s)of the world just have random potable water taps in the street like that for anyone to use?

Presumably hot countries and provided as a public good? (it wouldn't be as easy in Britain as the pipework would freeze during the winter) #infrastructure #StreetFurniture

This isn't a paid position unfortunately as it would be volunteer just as is running most every instance here in the Fediverse.

We'd like to hear from you if you think you could offer some help and would love to chat with you about our full plans and expectations.
