El Sindigato

El Sindigato formed in 2018: 3 neighbours, driven to improve the lot of a local 30+ feral colony. Once the colony was stabilised through CER (2021), the scope broadened. Results to date: 200+ adoptions, 90+ sterilisations/interventions——Given the volume of work & new challenges in the barrio, from 2026 a sister asoc, Xé Gats, will focus on the street/CER, el Sindigato on fostering/adoptions ——Both groups continue caring for our beloved colony. Thanks to you all, we cover 50% of their food needs.

Project we support

Care of street cats in Valencia city

El Sindigato and Xé Gats - registered non-profits

We work on two levels to help stray cats. - local colonies and community cats are cared for and managed using the TNR approach (trap, neuter, return) - for those cats whose temperament or circumstances make them suitable for adoption, we find them a safe, responsible, and permanent home Both adoptive and streets cats are given veterinary care, temporary shelter, and food. In the absence of comprehensive and effective government action, street cats rely solely on voluntary neighbourhood groups like ours for a dignified life with a minimum level of well-being.

Iggy (a la derecha), uno de los gatos originales de la colonia padece de algunos problemas de salud. Tiene unos 10 años, igual más (llevamos 8 años cuidando de él). Le ayudamos con suplementos nutricionales y un poquito de claro de huevo cocido de vez en cuando. Aunque tiene más pinta de gato mayor ahora, sigue comiendo con gusto. Tras su revisión veterinaria está de vuelta en la colonia y disfruta de su libertad y de la compañía de los otros gatos, especialmente lo de Matterhorn. Son los Butch Cassidy y Sundance Kid de la colonia.
