DOBBY - FREE FOR ADOPTION

On a Saturday morning in the middle of September two different people found two newborn kittens in Qormi. Both kittens were ginger and both were found in the area of the market. They were the same size and age and we concluded that they were siblings.

The mum cat was a young stray that was fed by people who live in the area but she had no interest in cleaning or feeding the kittens.

Because they were just a couple of hours old they needed immediate Bottlefeding and they were brought directly to me.

Sally one of the kittens passed away suddenly after a few days. At first I was very worried that the brother would die too but luckily the second little one pulled through.

Dobby was a very small kitten and took a long time to grow. He also took long to start eating fruits alone and was still dependent on the bottle until about ten days ago. He is now looking for his forever home....a place where he will be loved as part of the family, cared for and kept safe for the rest of his life.

Dobby is extremely friendly, does well with dogs and other cats but is also happy alone as long as he has human company and doesn't spend most of the day with no one to play with. He is litter trained, de-wormed and microchipped and can join his new home in about a week.

Whoever is interested in giving your adorable little one a forever home please contact us.

Xena (now Luna) happily homed

Xena now Luna

Xena came to me around the 20/7/25 at a couple of days old. She was picked up by people at the beach and was taken in for bottlefeeding. Although at first she resisted the bottle, she quickly got used to her new mummy and gradually grew into a healthy, fluffy and very loving little kitten. A few weeks ago she was adopted and is now a very much lived member of the family

It's the happy endings like this one that give me the strength to bottlefeed for 10 months of the year, never sleeping a full night because I need to feed every 4-5 hours. We are volunteers and get nothing from savings these little ones. We do it because we want to save innocent lives and ease suffering and do not expect any recognition. All we all is for our foster babies are adopted into good homes and lives for the rest of their lives.

Thanks to all the lovely families ( over 50) who adopted kittens from me this year and all the others who have my babies from previous years. I might not have the time to keep in contact frequently but I think of you and will be forever grateful for the updates you send and for all the love you give the little ones.

UPDATE - Aramis has been adopted

Aramis is a lovely 7.5 week old kitten. He was rescued along with his siblings in a very bad condition at two and a half weeks of age. They were treated and bottlefed for a few weeks

Luckily they all responded well to treatment and are now fully weaned, litter trained, dewormed, microchipped and vet checked.

Aramis is a very friendly, playful kitten who craves company, love and affection. Since he was bottlefed he is very used to human interaction and works be the perfect addition to a family with children, ideally with another cat in the house.

Aramis needs company and does well with other cats and also with dogs. He is adventurous, funny and confident and extremely playful and affectionate.

Since his siblings have been adopted, he is now alone in the cage and really needs a forever home of his own. Please contact us if you are interested in adopting.

Winnie - free for adoption

On the 16 th of July I received a call asking if I had space and time to take in another kitten. I was sent a picture and instantly fell in love.

Little Winnie was a Calico weighing under 200 g but she already had teeth and was climbing about. She was estimated to be 3-4wks old.

Winnie was skin and bones and severely underweight. Although she was old enough to eat alone she refused any form of soft food for the next 3 weeks and was bottle fed a mixture of milk and pate.

She also was suffering from severe diarrhoea . She treated negative to parvo and gardia and was given deworming and anti protozoal treatment for a week. This did not solve the problem but it improved drastically.

Winnie gradually started to gain strength and didn't need to be force fed any more. Slowly slowly she gained weight and strength and is now fully weaned and litter trained.

Winnie is now ten weeks old but is still much smaller than a regular 8 week old kitten. She has been de-wormed and will be microchipped prior to adoption.

This little girl has fought long and hard to gain her strength and is now looking for her special forever family to find and take her home. Please send a message if you are interested in making Winnie part of your family. If you cannot adopt please share ... You too can have a part in this success story.

Hans- free for adoption

After over 2 months looking for a home, we have not received a single request for Hans.

Hans was not born a perfect kitten. However, he didn't bet hard to survive and has made it past any expectations. He lives a normal life and is as active and loving as any other kitten.

Hans is still patiently waiting for his special person, someone who is not looking for perfection but for unconditional love..... Someone ready to give a little kitten with scoliosis the life he deserves.
