Project Paw Cyprus

Project Paw Cyprus We support the cats of Cyprus, their rescuers and tourists who want to take their felines home😻 If you cannot donate, of course there are many ways to help.

In Cyprus there are more cats than people, Initially introduced to control the rat and snake population, the strays of Cyprus are now everywhere, rapidly increasing in numbers without any official care or neutering in place. This means there are many homeless cats, unwell cats, starving cats, kittens needing to be hand reared, there‘s a lot of suffering, witnessed by locals and tourists alike. There is also unfortunately a level of cruelty shown towards cats, albeit luckily a minority. Visitors to the island don‘t know how they can help cats in need during their short stays. Local people are desperately trying to help suffering cats in their area, but there’s only so much people can afford on their own and it is heart breaking. So being an animal lover, cats in particular, I wish to bring people together with the aim of helping as many cats in Cyprus as possible, starting with the area I visited during April 2022, Protaras and the surrounding areas. So far, I have found a recommended vet that locals use for treatment, plus some ladies that help cats on the ground with trapping etc, but we need the help of many to be able to make this a success, this is where the generosity of anyone reading this comes in. Whether its £1/€1 or more, please consider giving, or give your time if you live locally in Cyprus to help improve the lives of strays and the environment they live in. You may even wish to explore adopting a cat from your visit to Cyprus, cats make wonderful pets! ALL monies donated shall be paid directly to vet practices involved in this project from myself and evidence of this will be provided to keep it transparent and reassuring for everyone involved and it will be spent accordingly. When visiting Cyprus, you can feed the cats by purchasing cat food in shops, but please feed them away from roads, restaurants etc. If you find a cat in need, please look for the Facebook group ‘Cyprus cats who need homes or help’ but be aware that everyone is very busy, maxed out with animals, but it’s worth posting and asking how you can help the animal yourself or if someone can help you. If your accommodation has cats present, speak to managers and ask that you‘d like to see care provided for them. We need to educate on how to treat animals and whether people like cats or not, a healthier, better cared for and controlled cat population will make Cyprus a better place for everyone! �

📍 Dalyan, Turkey 😻

Everywhere we go, we are keen to see what rescue efforts are made and how accepting different places are when it comes to stray cats.

We are pleased to see a lot of water provided everywhere in plastic tubs and bowls.

There’s also discreet feeding stations for dry food. Local cat charities operate in the area with feeding and neutering campaigns.

Where have you been that you’ve been impressed with stray cat welfare? Comment below!

We’ve got a renewed appeal for BARRY!

ADOPT ME 😻💙 BARRY🥰
(Cyprus home preferred-please read)

It’s gorgeous Barry!
He’s the more senior gentleman aged around 10 years and rescued earlier this year from Protaras after he looked a little worse for wear and not eating well. As expected, it was the gnashers giving him grief 🦷🦷😼 so they came out and Barry recovered well!

Barry was all set to go to a cat cafe in the UK, but a few off days saw him visit the vet, where they discovered he’s got stage 1 kidney disease😿

💊 He’s currently on a liquid treatment called Pronefra and he takes it very well.

So, not wanting to stress out our Bazza, he needs to either be rehomed in Cyprus, or to somewhere that he can travel in the cabin with a companion. To the UK, he could only travel in the cargo hold, which is why the cat cafe is no longer an option.

His rescuer/sponsor is committed to helping Barry even after adoption. So his medicines will be Provided.

He’s neutered, vaccinated, has no teeth to worry about, is FIV/FeLV negative. And he’s passported too.

This gent needs a comfy home to live out his life in. His prognosis is currently good and treatment is working.

Can you offer Barry a safe, caring home for the rest of his days?

Please get in touch 😻🇨🇾

We are pleased to share with you that we have now distributed the 3 drop boxes purchased from Kotes.Gr 🥳🥳🥳

2 rescuers who TNR in the eastern area of Cyprus now have their own drop boxes!

1 will remain at Furry Friends Veterinary Clinic to allow people to borrow the drop box, should it be needed.

We hope to be able to get more drop boxes into Cyprus, they are ESSENTIAL to rescuing sick and injured cats, as well as cats that need to be neutered.

Thank you to everyone who continues to donate to us, we’re achieving amazing things for the cats of Cyprus!😻🇨🇾🥰

It’s SHARE US SATURDAY 🇨🇾🐾😻🥳

If you have a cat or kitten to rehome, please post them in the comments- pictures and as much information as possible!

And if you’re looking to adopt, get checking those comments!

We can’t post every cat we are asked to help rehome individually, so instead, we encourage rescuers and other orgs to post any cats they have up for adoption on this post. That way, there’s lots of cats that can be seen in one place! We hope that by doing this, we can help in getting cats across Cyprus rehomed!

If you find small kittens and you are going to hand rear them… PLEASE! Make sure you warm them up first!
