Late winter report

Postby Symi Animal Welfare » 17 Mar 2014, 10:31

The winter weather up until now, has been fairly good, however, the street cats are looking somewhat bedraggled today after terrific storms recently. A few of our volunteers have been away at some stage, but all of the feeding stations have been regularly visited several times each week throughout the winter months, ensuring that the cats receive their winter diet of pasta, biscuits and canned food. It is good to see that most of the kittens who were quite small late last year, are still appearing at the stations they have matured, stayed safe and have grown into fit and strong animals. Once we've had the final supermarket total ( the usual 'avrio' reply when I say that we'd like to pay!) this year's successful feeding programme should be drawing to a close.

It is wonderful to notice that the cat colonies are occasionally fed by others also 'my' cats at Kampos bins are regularly treated to scraps of meat and fish, but never 'turn up their noses' at the pasta- mixture. The bin-cats are doing so well these days!

As some of you may have read on different websites, a vet from Rhodes hopes to visit the island on a monthly basis; he will be doing vaccinations and examinations only, for now at any rate. Unfortunately, bad weather stopped his planned trip last weekend, but all being well, he'll be here towards the end of this week. This is brilliant news for the island and we hope to work closely with him in the future. Melanie x
