Whenever someone asks me why I bother to help cats or tells me that I should just leave them suffer or put them to sleep because ‘they’re just a cat’ - this is what I really want to tell them.
Cats can’t speak and they can’t voice how they feel, but they matter and their health, happiness and safety matters.
Please help me save cats in Chania, Crete. I look after 160 but I’m trying to build a new shelter where I can have a permanent sanctuary for them and help many more.

Compassion begins at home. Please model kindness to animals to the children in your life.
Adopt animals, don’t abandon them, get them the vet care they need, give them mental stimulation and play with them. Don’t raise your voice at animals, show them love and patience. And speak up for those without a voice - strays, abused animals, neglected animals.
Imagine where we would be as a world if all children were raised to be like this. Another world is possible.

Please help build our shelter. We urgently need to raise funds to build a permanent shelter on this incredible site that Maria has been gifted. It will mean a lifelong shelter for the special needs cats in Maria’s care and many more to come. Cats with disabilities and very complex health conditions like FeLV. This sanctuary will be the first of its kind in Crete and Maria would like to build an isolation unit, hospitalisation unit and much more to provide outstanding care. Please donate whatever you can - Maria’s lease is up for renewal and she won’t be able to afford the increase. Your help is vital and so greatly appreciated. Please donate via the shelter GoFundMe appeal in the pinned post or via PayPal @catschania.

Nervous cats are often bottom of the pile when it comes to adoptions. Add medical and behavioural issues to the mix, and there’s almost no chance they’ll ever find a home. Maria gives lifelong sanctuary to nervous cats and gives them the space and patience they need. She is building a brand new shelter for her cats because her lease is up, and she cannot afford any increase. And a permanent home for the cats if long overdue. Please donate via PayPal @catschania or via the links in the pinned post to help with this exciting new project. Thank you so much ❤️ #cat #catrescue #catshelter #catsanctuary #rescuecat #adoptdontshop #chania #crete
Maria’s Cathouse in Crete is home to over 160 cats, most with special needs. Cats like Blacky, who has neurological issues and can’t survive as a stray. Please help Maria as she constructs a brand new permanent shelter for her cats. You can donate via PayPal @catschania or using the links in our pinned post. Thank you so much! #straycat #disabledcat #wobblycat #rescuecat #catrescue #catshelter #kitten #adoptdontshop #chania #crete
Kiveli is a stray kitten who was shot at in a central street of Chania, on the Greek island of Crete. She was rescued by Η προστασία των ζώων,Χανιά/Chania animal protection but due to the shooting she is now paralysed, as you can see. There was not a single offer to adopt or foster her locally. But Kiveli is very lucky because an amazing adopter has been found in Belgium. The total transportation costs in order to reach her forever family, is around 550€ Can you please help her reach her destination? You can donate to Chania Animal Protection using the information below or you can donate to Maria’s Cathouse and write ‘Kiveli’ in the comments/reference. Thank you so much.

Please help Maria build a new enclosure for the many blind and partially sighted kittens she has taken in this summer. It literally seemed like an epidemic, and now they need a safe, spacious area of their own, away from the older cats. Please donate via PayPal @catschania or see the pinned post for other donation options. Thank you so much for helping! #chania #crete #cat #catsanctuary #catshelter #catlover #blindcat #blindkitten #kittens #AdoptDontShop
Could you help Maria? She is so grateful for every single donation which enables her to continue her mission.

Leo is a little miracle! His eyes were so infected and he was so weak. And he was in the middle of the road when found - he could so easily have died. But now he has his whole life ahead of him! Thank you for supporting Maria’s work. You mean so much! #cat #blindcat #kitten #blindkitten #adoptdontshop #rescuekitten #catrescue #rescuecat #tabby #chania #crete
