'ANIMALS SHARE WITH US THE PRIVILEGE OF HAVING A SOUL' ~ Pythagoras

'THE GREATNESS OF A NATION AND ITS MORAL PROGRESS CAN BE JUDGED BY THE WAY ITS ANIMALS ARE TREATED' ~ Mahatma Gandhi

I left the UK and came to live in this beautiful part of Greece with two cats in 2005. Never did I think that animal welfare/rescuing would take over all other planned activities. The plight of these helpless innocent souls is heartbreaking.

Cat Neutering

The first 2 days of this month, I arranged a pretty hectic cat neutering program, which  proved successful, as we managed to CAPTURE-NEUTER-RELEASE a total of 57 cats.  This was only accomplished by careful planning, organization and patience. Feral cats can be very clever in terms of going into trap cages, eating the food and then walking out again, which can be very frustrating. Two female cats nearly didn't make it as they were too sick.  One young female was very dehydrated, another had fluid on her lungs. What surprised me more than anything was the size of some cats being caught.  They were kittens, less than 8 weeks old.  Some people just don't get it!
