Vejer Cats

Vejer Cats We are not a charity. We are two people living in Vejer, Spain who cannot walk away from an animal in need.

And our last (current) kitten is Kansas

This little female lost her mother and siblings to panleukopenia. Somehow she didn't contract this most horrible disease.

Only a baby she had to spend ten days in quarentine, alone in a cage at the vets. She was very traumatised when we got her.

But with a bit of love from us, her new brothers (Pip and Herbie below) and Toby the world's best nanny, she is running around having a ball. She loves a cuddle and a lots of play.

We are still looking for an adoptive family deserving of this remarkable little girl.

A huge thank you to Pepi for always finding great homes for our cats and kittens.

And for those of you who have not seen our wonderful kitten-sitter this is Toby forcibly washing little Pip (see below)

Toby was a house cat, someone dumped him after he was mauled in a fight—his ear was so infected it had to be amputated. Old and, battered he is safe with us now. Then came Pip and Herbie the kitten we rescued with eyes swollen shut from a sever infection.

Pip's wounds ran deeper. He was terrified of everything… until Toby, this one-eared, half-blind old boy took Pip under his wing and became, simply, his surrogate mum.

Now they curl up together, healing each other. Pure love, between the broken. And Pip? He’s thriving, and as you can see, quite happy with humans. And now Toby is using his boundless kindness to heal little Kansas. I will post her story later.

PIP AND HERBIE ADOPTED TOGETHER

They leave for their new permanent home on August 2.

Gail and I rescued both boys and their sister Estella from a Vejer back street. Sadly the people who were feeding them ignored how sick they were and only informed us when it was too late for Estella. After a brave battle the poor little thing died.

All three were suffering dreadful eye infections. Herbie (the larger of the two) bounced back quickly, but we thought Pip would be blind.... or, at best, partially sighted. I am overjoyed to say that after antibiotics, good food, warm beds, and weeks of eye drops and affection, Pip has regained full sight in both eyes.

Not all medicine comes in a bottle. We attribute much of their recuperation to Toby, our ancient, recently rescued, old gentleman who took both kittens under his wing, washing them daily and giving them the confidence to trust and love people. Both kits are now amazingly well adjusted and full of purrs.

We shall miss them, as we do all our rescues.

UPDATE. All three were adopted a while ago. They are all doing wonderfully in their new homes.

RESCUED YESTERDAY
Emily, Charlotte and Ann(ie). 10 points for anyone knowing where we got those names from.

All three are healthy, well fed and very comfortable with humans. They obviously had a very attentive mum. The trouble was their location. It is a on a street where the traffic tear up and down, feral dogs run freely and a few vile humans have been know to kick kittens. They wouldn't have lasted the week.

They are just perfect and can look forward to very happy lives. We will spay their mum and encourage her to join the colony so she has a much easier life.

Five kittens dumped on the counter of the police station. The cops have Gail on sp*ed dial.

The good news is all are in perfect health. Thanks to the amazing Pepi all have already been adopted with a record number of 40 applicants.

They will.stay with us until weened and out of danger, then move on the Pepi's for fostering and, when old enough, on to their new families.

Gail and i have had no sleep. By time we have finished the bottle feeds, p*eing, pooing and cleaning them its almost time to start again.

CAN YOU HELP US HELP SAVE VEJER'S KITTENS BY BECOMING AN ASSOCIATE MEMBER? FOR ONLY £10 OR €10 A MONTH (less that the price of two drinks in the pub), you can help provide essential funds to help defenceless animals survive.

Vejer Cats and Colonias Felinas de Vejer are only five people, but we accomplish a great deal. Last year alone, we rescued, fostered, nursed and found responsible loving homes for 96 kittens who would otherwise have died terrified and alone on the streets.

Looking after very young kittens is exhausting (they need to be bottle fed every two hours 24/7) and it is expensive. Every kitten needs vaccinations (€50), kitten formula (€20), vet check-ups (€25), food (€10), transportation to the adopter (€50), cat boxes (€13) and litter (€5) – almost €200 per kitten. Sometimes the adopters help with travel costs, but not always.

And, we do a lot more than just adoptions. More on that over the coming days.

So please, if you can spare £10 or €10 a month (or more), please set up a standing order. Your contribution will help save the lives of these animals in need.

Macy (tabby) and Selva (Black) have both been adopted.

Macy was the little bag.of bones we found dying in a pool of p*e and blood in Vejer. She leaves for her new permanent home in Toledo on Thursday.

Selva who was dumped as a kitten in San Ambrosia left for her new home two days ago.

As you can see.both are healthy happy and loving.adolescents. Both can look forward to contented happy lives.
