Without health there’s nothing

Dear supporters and friends, Here I’m writing a brief newsletter to reach out to you and ask for a little help. As you all know, last month we were informed that we’ll definitely have to leave the place that has been our home for the past 15 years. Expectedly, all the stress and the pressure […]

Eviction court order

Dear friends and supporters, Finally, our court case possession hearing took place and the judge issued an order. Regretfully, our request for a low-income family social rent agreement with the new owners has been dismissed and we ought to move out so that the current owner (vulture fund) can take possession of their property. The […]

What the future holds

Dear supporters, At long last, I’ve finally found the time and strength to sit and write this newsletter to update you on our current situation. Since last summer, our lives have been an emotional roller coaster. As we were fighting our way to court to avoid eviction, suddenly, we lost our beloved Oliver within less […]

In memory of those we lost

Dear supporters, This year, some supporters have asked for a special edition of our regular 2025 Calendar, with photos of all the kitties who left us much too soon and that you all loved so dearly. We thought the idea of remembering and honoring our beloved late cats by having them featured in an ‘in memoriam’ edition […]

We keep fighting but Oliver is gone…

Eviction hearing update

Dear supporters and friends, It’s been a year since a vulture fund came to warn us that they were the new owners of the place we rent and threatened us with taking legal action if we failed to leave. As I explained in a previous newsletter, from that moment on, our life was turned upside […]

Very important news about our cat sanctuary

Dear supporters and friends, Many things have happened over the last couple of months, but due to the endless tasks we have at the sanctuary and the struggle we face every day trying to stay alive, I haven’t had the time to write an update. The unexpected addition of two new rescues (Cheeky and Frankie) […]

A very special Christmas

Dear supporters, Here we are again, celebrating one more Christmas together! Today, December 21st, we are also celebrating our 11th anniversary, over a decade since we started this crusade! 2023 has been by far the most difficult year for us. As you all know, we’ve been struggling to survive having to take each day at […]

Cheeky and Frankie, our latest rescue

For five months, we fed and took care of Cheeky and Frankie, the two female orphaned kittens we found last summer, trying to fend for themselves on the side of a jogging path. On November 1st we could finally rescue them just in time to have them spayed before they’d go into heat and get pregnant.
