Another family visiting the island distressed to find this little one tossed onto the pavement to die by a bin. 10-14 days old eyes only just open we think it’s a boy, dehydrated/starving they did well to keep bathed & cuddled up to Mrs Tiger he is doing well screaming in chorus with Mowgli in the pen below! Early days yet but if anyone wants to offer him a home in a months’ time please contact us any donations towards little ones care gratefully accepted.
Yesterday this poor cat was found under a car in the middle of Georgioupoli it must have had an owner does anyone recognise it?
It is bewildered, thin, typical Persian runny eyes/snuffly nose its coat is matted will have to be shaved under sedation.
Sex not quite sure difficult to tell due to matted fur despite liking strokes she/he won’t allow us to touch the tail end!No microchip.Please contact us if you know of anyone who has lost this cat.
We have an appeal for our little group of misfits that came into us over the weekend.
Two sets of tourists left the island traumatised spending the weekend either fishing ginger kittens one by one out of boiling wheelie bins, stuffed into cardboard boxes left to die in Kalyves or tabby kittens left ignored by the roadside dying of dehydration sitting on their dead mother in Almyrida. The kind tourists that picked them up spent an agonising 2 days dodging hotel staff whilst trying to find someone to help.
We never usually mix recovering/cats kittens this time we made an exception. They were all bewildered & dazed, dehydrated, heaving with parasites, eye injuries from serious cat flu, roughly the same age.
They are now sweet smelling from their baths, parasite treatments started, cuddled up with each other & have made their own little family!
Approximately 3-4 weeks of age we have:
Two ginger & white females
Larger kitten (the one in the igloo) has infection damage to her left eye (cataract), vision is normal in the other eye and seems not to bother her at all. Cat flu is receding & she is a little dumpling eating everything, naughty little miss, ready to go in 2 weeks.
Her sister is more red in color, tiny undernourished & the noisiest of the bunch with a piercing squeak! Her cat flu is slower to go but she is playful and delightful, may take a little longer till ready for re homing.
Two stunning tabbies
The female is utterly gorgeous & surprisingly has no signs of infections at all, quite docile & still confused at losing her mother with doe like eyes she could be re-homed any-time. Her brother is the most stunning tabby & he will be a big boy when eventually fit & well.
Sadly his right eye has been completely destroyed by infection will need surgical closure at about 12 weeks of age. His other eye is perfect & he will see & behave as a normal cat but will need to be with us a few months. We will as always assist with neutering and vaccination.
Please contact us if you can offer a home if not as always we also need to raise funds for their treatment & care. If adoption does not happen on Crete we must fund transport to Woodland Nook in the UK.
This affectionate girl was seen by one of our volunteers outside a mini market in Kokkino Chorio, she was begging for food but mutilated from acid/toilet cleaner being thrown deliberately into her face.
Allegedly the sub human who did this was irritated that his own cat’s food was being eaten by this starving girl. This happened approximately a week ago (@Good Friday) & she was left in agony from the toxic substance burning her eye/sinuses/paws causing irreparable damage & infection.
Our dedicated & tireless vets have removed her eye & started treatment for the infection. She will hopefully do very well but her skin will take time to heal, she is with us for the time being for nursing & re homing.
We are asking for the funds for her care, vaccinations, microchip, and passport in addition flight costs to send her to our colleagues at Woodland Nook in the UK.
If anyone would like to adopt on Crete that would be very welcome.
The local Mayors office & our Greek animal welfare colleagues are actively involved in seeking to prosecute the offender.
As usual after a neutering session we have various waif & strays needing homes these little ones are stunning & in perfect health.
Six weeks of age all boys various colours, even a fluffy one!
