Everyone who lives in Mallorca (and even most people who just visit for a holiday) are aware that we have far too many wild cats on the island. The problem is huge, compared to the number of wild cats in Britain.
We are trying to do our bit to deal with the problem. We have an ongoing cat neutralisation programme, in which we capture female wild cats, have a vet neuter them and realise them back into the wild.
If they seem adaptable to life in a home, we put them up for adoption but unfortunately most feral cats cannot live in a home.
It is an ongoing problem. We can only capture and neuter as many cats as we can and more and more kittens are being born every day.
The kittens can catch diseases, starve or even worse. There are plenty of terrible people out there who will deliberately put down cat food laced with rat poison to kill stray cats off.
A cat dying in agony is a terrible sight to see – and hear.
Won’t you please help? Any donation you can make will help us pay for vet fees. We manage to find vets who will do the operations at a very discounted price, but it is still expensive and there are so many cats to deal with.
Please consider donating a little money to us, either as a kind one-off donation, or even better as a monthly small contribution.
Tell us, if you like, to earmark the money especially for the cat-neutering programme and then you’ll know that you are doing your bit to deal with the problem.
We rely entirely on the generosity of friends like you. Please help. Thank you.
My wife & I stayed in a villa near Pollensa for 5 weeks this summer. We adopted a little stray cat and have helped to relieve your cat problem by bringing her back with us to the UK. Its only 1 cat, but after quarantine, she will have a loving home and people who care for her. We have just bought an apartment in port pollensa and will be staying on the island again soon. We will be happy to help out with a donation when we next come over (probably October). Kind regards & our very best wishes for your wonderful work,
Allen & Carolyn
