Today I managed to clear the green rehab room. It needed a deep clean but as Thomas was staying there i couldn't do anything until he was able to go off and play with his pals.
Paka look a like PLA and Spirit are really looking sfter him. Its quite emotional seeing how they have stayed by his side when exploring the great outdoors. They know he has only one eye.

While I was scrubbing the fake grass they all came back in for a cool rest on the stones and earth.
I am praying in the near future we can concrete the green room so its easier to clean. Maybe a go fund me ?
We will see ,there are so many things we need but we have to prioritise!
Portable catio next maybe .
Some friends have offered to make the green room fun for our cats ,wirh shelving walkways and giant sctatching poles. Cannot wait for it to be done 🙏
If you have any toys for our 11 retreat cats please pm 🙏

Roundup !
Due to our amazing fellow volunteers the work still continued while I had a break.
Diana Jepson helped with a trap for a poor cat that had a grass sead in his eye. Sue successfully caught him and took him to the vet so now he is pain free,castrated and relaxing .thankyou both for caring 🙏❤️
Diane McDermott and Sean took mum cat and her kittens to our lead vet Faye . Faye gave them a thorough check and it was agreed to sterilise the mum as no milk and she was quite thin. The kittens at 4 weeks were already on mum and kitten wet and dry food . The mum was sterilsed at Arc de noe on wednesday.Thankyou Dra Anna ,Diane and Sean and the lovely lady who is caring for them all 🙏❤️

Melissa Braxton had a visting cat that looked poorly so was caught and taken to Dra Anna . The cat was tested and negative for felv and fhiv . He recieved an antibiotic injection as calci virus
Symptomatic. He was castrated. Melissa will monitor him if he stays around .
Melissa also took Larry one of her colony cats to Faye for his check up as he had prevously been attacked and had a bad abscess. Larry is doing well . Thankyou all 🙏❤️

Friday I took Thomas to have his stitches out from his eye removal and finally get his bucket off too ! He's is such a lovely cat. As I promised him months ago he could go out and play with his pals Spirit and Pakalook a like PLA . He was let out of the green room this morning and is having a cautious look around. He has been microchipped. Always a risk when we set them free but he needs to do this .

I also took Slives cat currently known as sweetie because he really is ! Well Faye has given him the all clear . His amazing foster( who likes to remain anonymous ) does so much for cats and dogs. Due to thier care he has recovered from his infection much quicker than we imagined. He cannot return to his previous environment in silves and now needs more space than his foster can offer at the moment but we do have a a couple of options of a pernanant home as a lap cat so he can have lots of cuddles . A Huge thankyou to you and Faye 🙏❤️

The Anon street dog that was treated for tick fever ,lieshimanosis and hearworm. This dog has had a journey thectreatment for heartworm is tough for them but totally necessary. The dog is doing well and has a loving home. The leishiminosis will remain a constant threat though. So medication for life. I have seen this dog and she is so happy and despite the issues looks well . A least they are receiving what is needed now and lots of love. Thankyou to all involved 🙏❤️

Toosie came out if her crate into the retreat and is loving the shade and the earth to roll on ! This has been a very long journey for those following Tootsie when she was caught by us back in December with rotting feet and a horrid worm infestation. She is now so well although she will continue her monthly steroid injection but decreasing dose under Faye advice. Thankyou to all who have helped Toosie on her journey
🙏❤️

TNR
just 1 male cat castrated
female dog spayed
Our amazing volunteers Diane and Melissa are out trying to catch two visiting males in Alte that are injured proberly through fighting. Once caught they will be treated and castrated

Santa margirida has a female with 3 kittens . We sterilsed 30 cats there in November 2024 . We missed one! but seeing this female today she has a cut ear ! but obvously not spayed :(
She and the kittens will be vet checked tommorow , thank you Diane for vet run.

We saw a request for a trap for an injured cat in Loule on fb . Not one person or organsition offered a trap so we got in touch and another volunteer Diana sorted a trap and training for this lovely couple to catch the cat which they did this afternoon . Off to the vet in the morning .

Tootsie and silves cat went back to the vet today .
Tootsie had another steriod injection and a nexguard. She is now back in the retreat but loves her hammock in her crate so does not seem to want to venture out! hopefully soon .

Silves cat (vet bills kindly covered by APAA ).
This cutie continues to improve thanks to a amazing foster who is very kind and gentle. He is such a sweet cat and we hope in a months time he will be off the antibiotics and out of quarenteen .

Sorry no photos to share just not time !
