Dear friends, we have a happy story from Linda on Crete. Thank you Linda!

Happy Article!
Back in April this year, a young English girl called Sophie who lives in my village contacted me about a very small cat that had befriended her, even though she has an allergy to animal fur, but unfortunately who was miscarrying her kits in her apartment.

Despite Sophie having this allergy, she was prepared to keep her in for her to recover from this ordeal. After 10 days, she was allowed out and would come back for food. Then of course, the males were at her again so she was sterilised, I had wanted to wait another 2 weeks to do this, but it was not possible. Through contacts of people involved in animal welfare in our village, after Choo was sterilised, a pet shop said they could look after her for a week. Sophie also managed to find a couple from the UK who live about 20 minutes away who would be happy to give her a home.

At the time, we still had the lock down in force, and the couple lived in another area but Choo was handed over at a secret point to start her new life. The couple even brought her a harness so she could be taken into their garden Sophie has said this week that Choo is loving life, gets on with all their pets - cats and dogs, loves cuddling and snuggling with everyone and her favorite place is to sit on a shelf on the wall. At least the couple do not have to buy any cats ornaments then!!

Hello friends, Natasa from Skopelos sent the following appeal. Like other rescuers we support she has devoted her life to saving and caring for stray cats and dogs. It has been particularly difficult this year because due to the coronavirus, there are more births and no kind tourists to feed the cats. Just today she went and rescued some cats after a man died.

Dear friends I would like your help and your support for a very serious topic. As you all know I take care more than 350 cats in Skopelos, both inside my shelter and in the streets of Skopelos. I feed in 42 points all around the island, almost 75% of the island is under my responsibility regarding cats feeding. Most cats of course are neutered thanks to G.C.W.S and I thank them from the bottom of my heart. Without their help with sterilisations, cats would be thousands, they have also helped with food. I am a volunteer for animals for many many years, for about 12-15 hours a day, every day, with rain, wind, I never stop feeding the cats at these 42 points. But my strength isn’t the same as when I first began being a rescuer. For this reason, I need cats feeders to be placed at the feeding points, so that I won’t be obliged to go there every day. The feeders I want to buy are as shown in the foto. Each one costs 25e. But I will also need lockers so that nobody can steal the dry food and I must also find a way so that the feeders will be placed steadily on the ground. I know I need a lot...I also have no food for the cats and I try and bring some from abroad. But I will have to pay the transport cost. Please share this post it s very important to me and animals...Our paypal is straycare@yahoo.com ... See MoreSee Less
