Kalymnos Cats

This colony of ferals we Trapped, Neutered, Returned in the spring. Kind people both in Kalymnos and abroad make sure they are fed and monitored. All 9 are doing really well. Your donations enable us. Thank you.

DO NOT TIE STRING AROUND KITTENS NECKS! ΜΗ ΔΕΝΕΤΕ ΚΟΡΔΟΝΑ ΣΤΟΥΣ ΛΑΙΜΟΥΣ ΤΩΝ ΓΑΤΩΝ! The young black and white cat at the bottom of the picture and the young black and white at the top had string tied around their necks The string must have been there for some time as it was very tight and beginning to embed into its skin - which would cause a very slow, horrific and painful death. Today Kalymnos Cats volunteers managed to trap these cats and remove the string . In the next couple of days we hope to capture the whole colony, which are fed by kind people at Elies and take them to the vets to be sterilised and treated for parasites thanks to The Kalymnos Cat Project. ΜΗ ΔΕΝΕΤΕ ΚΟΡΔΟΝΑ ΓΥΡΩ ΤΟΥΣ ΛΑΙΜΟΥΣ ΤΩΝ ΓΑΤΩΝ! Η νεαρή ασπρόμαυρη γάτα στο κάτω μέρος της εικόνας και η νεαρή ασπρόμαυρη στο πάνω μέρος είχαν δεμένο κορδόνι στο λαιμό τους. αρχίζουν να ενσωματώνονται στο δέρμα του - που θα προκαλούσε έναν πολύ αργό, φρικτό και οδυνηρό θάνατο. Σήμερα οι εθελοντές της Kalymnos Cats κατάφεραν να παγιδεύσουν αυτές τις γάτες και να αφαιρέσουν το σπάγκο. Τις επόμενες δύο μέρες ελπίζουμε να κατακτήσουμε ολόκληρη την αποικία, την οποία ταΐζουν ευγενικοί άνθρωποι στο Elies και να τους μεταφέρουμε στους κτηνιάτρους για στείρωση και θεραπεία για παράσιτα χάρη στο The Kalymnos Cat Project

This young female was neutered a couple of weeks ago, when we did the 189 cat marathon! She was thin and weak, so we kept her back in a hospital cage, monitored and fed her good food and vitamins. We returned her home to Kamari this morning. She was happy to be home and free!

17 cats Trapped, Neutered and Returned at Agios Mamas area. Please donate so we can continue. One was also treated for a fungal infection. Thanks for all that you do.

Please donate so we can continue to help these beautiful cats. This is Duke released from the hospital cage after 10 days. We will continue to monitor his injuries and take him back to the vet if necessary. Thank you for all that you do!

Update on Duke. He was released from hospital cage today. In no hurry to get out!We shall continue to monitor his progress, particularly the wound on his right foreleg which is to the bone, but dry with no sign of infection. He had his last antibiotics and painkillers today. He took his time, walked around a bit and has gone back into the orchard from whence he came. Here's hoping he's learned to avoid the road. .Please donate so we can continue to help cats.

21 cats Trapped, Neutered and Returned to the port of Vathi this morning thanks to your kind donations. We couldn't do this without your support! If everyone who liked this post donated €1, we could TNR another cat!

Six feral males Trapped, Neutered and Returned to their territory in Kamari, thanks to kind donation from Lea and Felix to The Kalymnos Cat Project. Please donate so we can continue this essential effort !

This beautiful female feral kitten machine from Plati Gialos was neutered yesterday thanks to Kalymnos Cat Project and your donations. She will now live hormone and constant litters free,which will improve her health and quality of life.

3 female & 5 male ferals Trapped Neutered Returned to Anastasis area thanks to your kind donations to the Kalymnos Cat Project and Kalymnos Cats. We keep going for as long as you enable us!

Took this little chap back to the vet today. At his initial visit, the vet had to drain infection from his wound. Now, a week later, there is no pus, however he keeps scratching...He has had another antibiotic shot, his claws have been trimmed, he has a course of further antibiotics to take. His dressing will be changed daily and wounds sprayed with Manuka Lind to facilitate skin healing. As he has already spent a week confined in a cage and will have to be confined for at least another week, he has been put indoors in a spacious bathroom to protect him from a rather territorial house cat and give him room to move around. He is such a sweet, good natured affectionate little soul. We hope someone will adopt him. In the meantime, thank you for your kind donations to The Kalymnos Cat Project and Kalymnos Cats which enable us to continue caring for him. Thank you!

Without your help we could not do this! Intensive care unit with ensuite! The patient is eating well. He has been dusted with diatomaceous earth to discourage any lingering parasites. His dressing comes off tomorrow. All being well he will return home to his colony in Elies on Monday with vitamins and extra food for his continued care. Please donate whatever you can spare, no amount too small. Thank you so much!

5 female cats neutered and returned to Elies, we also released 2 males from the same colony, thanks to The Kalymnos Cat Project, and Kalymnos Cats. We couldn't do this without your kind donations.
