It's 8 August 2022 - World Cat Day.
Whether mackerel, coloured, black, white, short-haired, long-haired, chubby, graceful: cats come in many shapes and colours. You can get them everywhere: from the farm, from breeders, from hobby breeders, from illegal animal traffickers.
We clearly prefer cats from local animal shelters and from reputable associations. There is no need to "produce" cats when so many velvet paws are waiting for a home in animal shelters at home and abroad.
For us, every day is cat day. Every day we take care of sick, injured but also healthy cats. 24/7, without a break, tirelessly. And yet it is never enough. Time and again we reach our financial limits. And also to our physical and psychological limits. The individual cat fates do not let us go, haunt us in our sleep. The insults hurt and don't always bounce off.
Thank you for the great support, some of which has existed for years. Without them, without YOU, we would not make it.
With cat-friendly greetings,
Mirjam
Half-time: an overview
The first 6 months of the year have flown by. What have we achieved so far?
Almost 350 cats have been neutered and more than 380 have received veterinary treatment.
This is a great collective achievement of which we are all very proud. Another 6 months lie ahead of us.
With you by our side, we look forward optimistically to the second part of 2022.
Thank you for your loyal support.
Dear teamers and cat lovers
These 5 cats from the Playitas Resort and about 500 other felines are waiting for their daily food.
The surprising price increase for the 10 kg bag of cat food by about 3 euros earlier this year is a challeging news. That is an unexpected additional cost of 3,600 euros. You have already donated a lot and only about 1,000 Euros are still missing. I am optimistic that we will be able to raise this amount.
It would be fatal to take the additional food costs out of the castration budget or to save on emergency treatments. The need for neutering is increasing and so is the number of emergency cats. It's just never ending.
Thank you for your loyal support,
Mirjam

You all are heroes.
Thank you in the name of the street cats in Fuerteventura.
