'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.

Charlie - HOME WANTED

Late in the evening, we were waiting for the arrival of some friends.  Whilst waiting by the Post Office, we could hear pathetic wails coming from under a car.  Investigating further, there was a tiny kitten, but could one get closer?  Definitely not!  It went from car to car, crossed the road and was lucky it wasn't killed.  After what seemed like hours, it was finally caught, regardless that we were bloodied, scratched and the kitten was hissing.  Until a cage was brought, it was a case of holding onto the kittens neck.  Once settled in the cage, it is so surprising how the temperament changes.  Give a kitten love and affection and it becomes your best friend.   Charlies is tiny and has big ears.  He will be OK with us and the other strays.

Angel - HOME WANTED

Today, like usual, I went for my lunchtime walk.  This time I was debating which route I should take.  Should I take the top route, or got the normal route?  I decided to go the normal route.  Why?  I have no idea.  Anyway, the normal route first takes me to the cemetery where I like to read the headstones and see who else has died. It might seem depressing, but the graveyard here in Ermioni, is such a restful place.  The sun shines, the flowers very colourful and the birds twitter.  So very peaceful.  Then when I have done all of this, I wash my hands to cool them down.  Anyway, today, I didn't get past reading any stones, or washing my hands, as upon entering the gates, by the bins on the right, there was this little kitten all by itself.   Again, I always carry food with me, as part of the walk, I meet Blackie, who gets food.  I rang my husband, but he couldn't come immediately as the guests had arrived.   As gentle as anything and so loving.  I put some food down and waited for my husband to arrive.  Then she was whisked off to safety. 

She is called Angel, and she probably was the reason I had to walk the normal route, because my Angel was waiting for me.
