What do we do?

Volunteer feeders take turns feeding the cats and cleaning twice daily; since we have less than seven Feeders, some volunteers feed the cats on two or more days a week.

Our cats are always fed a good meal each day. As an extra treat, visiting tourists are very generous. We ask that our visitors don't bring chicken with bones, as it is dangerous for the cats.

Additionally we purchase medicines, etc., to enable us to give First Aid treatment when necessary (e.g. eye problems, cuts, worming) and care for those cats and kittens which need extra special attention. We are extremely appreciative of any veterinary or other associations who would like to donate supplies to us.

Local veterinary surgeons offer advice and provide expert medical attention when required at a concessional rate. We are very grateful to them.

Volunteers are also improving the facilities on the new site itself; since we have moved our site, there is quite a bit of new work to be done. We always love the help people can give. We also continuously do gardening and general upkeep of the site.

Of course, all of the Feeders and Helpers spend quite a bit of time at the Sanctuary, just holding and loving the cats. This is perhaps the largest reason for the success of the Sanctuary, and for the health and well being of the cats who live there.
