Kalimera. Here's Marilyn, post- operation (stiches and some teeth removed). A very brave and strong girl...wishing her a speedy recovery and to be home soon! 💪🙏💚

No news on Marilyn yet...so here's Bruce of Stravolimni ❤️

"I am the Walrus!". You can't see so well in the photo, but he has the biggest fangs and very little neck.

Bruce used to be the Alpha and a royal pain in the arse. After he was successfully sterilised in 2022, he became the sweetest thing.

Watching him in March in his extended family, he seems to have adopted the role of caretaker and mediator, making sure the rest of the gang are cool! 😎😻 He has a heart of gold.

This sweetheart in Lavrakas is Teasel's little girl, now feeling much better! We estimate she's around 11-12 weeks old.

She got separated from her family for a few days and was bitten, returnung home with a large abscess on her neck.

Fortunately, abscesses can be often be treated on Gavdos with antibiotics..if we catch it in time.

One week of daily Zodon and she's now fully recovered! 💪 Let's hope she stays close to her family 💚

Marilyn update:I was sent photos this morning which I won't post here as are too graphic.

The vet has classified as an emergency where antibiotics would not have been enough.

She's in the best place she can be at the moment so I will post when I have more news. Please pray for Marilyn. She is much loved in Ag Ioannis 🙏🖤

Nixta of Ag Ioannis beach gave birth to 3 beautiful kittens in late May that Freya named Icecream, Cookie and Belle.

Here's the first picture I have of this little sweetie. Meet Icecream!

And Nixta has been a little more nurturing this time around 😻

What a week... First Teasel's runt kitten got bitten and ended up with an abscess so I delayed my trip to Paleochora.

Then I missed the boat Saturday after my friend's boat wouldn't start. Saturday night I found Marilyn of Ag Ioannis with a bad neck injury. I knew there would be a reason I missed the boat! *Last picture is a bit graphic*

So here we are on the way to Paleochora! Marilyn is strong so I'm sure she will be ok with some care 🙏💪 And bravo to Freya for telling me about her neck 💚

Kalimera! 🦋

No one's slumber is safe from the fly! 🥱

Morning manía!

The 3 kittens disappeared for the first time for over 24 hours when they're not yet fully weaned. I'm so relieved they're back!

With a few threats around, sometimes I think I can't handle the responsibility and attachment, and that my amygdala is going to implode!

And it's precisely in these moments, I have to remember my "why" 💚

The kittens are all healthy and well, plus Teasel did a fantastic job of cleaning up their eye infections. Bravo mum!

If you are in Lavrakas this summer (or indeed anywhere), please keep a bowl of fresh drinking water down here and there to help our feline friends during the heat 🙏
