This is Agatha ❤️

In Summer, Agatha was rescued from the streets while pregnant, scared and unsure... yet she did everything right. Safe at the shelter, she gave birth to 6 beautiful kittens and became the most devoted little mama. She protected them, nurtured them and watched as each one of her babies found a loving home.

But when the last kitten left… Agatha was left behind. Despite her sweetness and her adorable face, no one asked to adopt her too.

Agatha is only around 1.5years old, now neutered and has already given so much love in her short life. She was an incredible mother, gentle and patient with her kittens and she deserves that same kindness in return 🥹

Shelter life can be overwhelming for a shy girl like Agatha. With all the noise and constant change, it’s hard for her to show her true personality. In a calm, quiet home with routine, stability & patience, she may finally be able to relax, feel safe and just be Agatha!

If you believe a mama cat deserves her own happy ending…
If you have the patience to let trust grow slowly…
And if Agatha’s story has touched your heart, please send us a message💕

She’s been a wonderful mother... now she’s waiting for someone to be hers!

Oh Clementine 🤍🩶

Another heartbreaking goodbye in just one month at our cattery 💔

Clementine was rescued from the busy streets of Bugibba five years ago. At first, she struggled to settle in, keeping her distance and observing from afar. But with time, patience and love, she slowly began to trust...coming forward for food, observing us closely and sometimes even joining in playtime with the team using her favourite string toys.

It all happened so suddenly...Just the day before, she was out for food, watching us and checking in on us as she always did. Then, last Thursday, our hearts broke when we found Clementine withdrawn and unresponsive. One of our volunteers rushed her to the vet, where we received the devastating news...she was suffering from lymphoma. There was no hope for recovery and with heavy hearts, following the vet’s guidance, we made the painful decision to let her go peacefully.

Fly high, sweet Clementine 🤍 You mattered. You were loved. We hope you felt safe, cherished and never alone at our cattery ❤️

It is devastating that so many adult cats spend their lives overlooked in shelters. While nothing can replace a real home, here at Claws they are loved every single day. We spend time with them, comfort them and make sure they always know their lives matter ❤️

Sooty needs a home asap 🖤

This sweet, endlessly loving boy is around 11 years old and diabetic and yet, people keep overlooking him 💔 A little care shouldn’t stop anyone from giving love!

Right now, Sooty lives in 1 room with very little human interaction something he desperately craves...He shouldn’t have to spend another year without feeling the warmth and comfort of a loving home.

Rescued from the streets almost 2 year ago, Sooty has survived so much already. Giving him his daily medication is easy... just bribe him with a little food and he’s happy as can be 🥹

Let’s not let him be ignored. He deserves to spend his golden years surrounded by love.

His diabetes is undee control and recent bloodwork indicate he is in great health ❤️

PM us to give Sooty the home he’s been waiting for 🏠

✨ Zappi’s Journey...A Story of Hope ✨

Yes, this story is a bit long to read but it’s worth it 🙂

Zappi is an 8 year old cat whose life changed suddenly after the tragic loss of his owner. In the midst of heartbreak, he and her other cats were taken in by a caring family member who did everything possible to support them. When circumstances became too difficult, help was sought to find loving new homes for the cats.

In just 1 year, Zappi moved 4 times. He left the only home he had ever known, then stayed with the family member and later was adopted into what became his third home but he struggled to settle in.

Yet through every change, Zappi held on. He stayed gentle. He stayed hopeful. And his post continued to be shared, again and again.

Then came the moment that changed everything. Zappi was welcomed into a new home as the only cat and from the very first moments, the connection was instant and undeniable 🥹 In this 4th home, Zappi finally found what he had been searching for: a place where he could feel safe, cherished and completely at ease.

Being older and missing a paw never stopped him from living fully... but it did mean that some people overlooked him. Still, Zappi waited. And the right person found him.

After a year of uncertainty and moving, Zappi is now exactly where he is meant to be, in a home filled with love, comfort and the promise of forever.

We share Zappi’s journey with the full consent of everyone involved, not to dramatise but to remind others that hope matters. Compassion matters. And sometimes, the most meaningful stories are the ones shaped by patience, cooperation and faith in the ones who can’t speak for themselves.

Because in the end, we do not choose cats… cats choose us.

Here is Zappi with his new mamma. We wish them a beautiful life together 🩶🤍

And to anyone considering adoption: please don’t overlook adult cats or cats with differences. They have incredible love to give and their stories often become the ones that inspire us the most ❤️

To Our Incredible Volunteers 💛🐾

Thank you to those who show up, morning or evening, week after week... to care for our cats with so much heart. You are here constantly, making sure every single cat feels safe, seen and loved 💕

Because of you, they still have hope ✨
Hope that someone will finally notice them… look past their age, their quirks, their personalities and see the beautiful souls they are.

You are their comfort, their courage and the closest thing to 'home' they have while they wait.

Thank you for showing up, always 💗🐱

Meet Bob & Boo...6 months old, soon to be neutered, abandoned… and somehow still ridiculously adorable 🥹💕

Their round little faces might hint at some British Shorthair in the mix, but we can’t confirm… their cheeks are refusing to comment 🤔

Bob (grey tabby):
Playful, silly and absolutely convinced that every object is a toy 😄

Boo (black female):
Gentle, sweet and quietly observing everything like a tiny security camera 📷

These 2 are completely bonded and must be adopted together. Anyone requesting just one will be kindly redirected to other wonderful cats (no hard feelings!).

If you’re looking for double the love, double the laughs, and double the cuteness, send us a message 🐾✨

Adoption process:
• We ask a few initial questions
• You fill out a questionnaire
• Our team reviews it
• We schedule a meet & greet after a succesful review

Our Mission

Our mission is to save the lives of homeless, sick, and injured cats and to work with our community to give these innocent animals a chance for a new life.

Our main focus is to help reduce the numbers of stray, homeless and abandoned cats and kittens in Malta. This is done through spaying/neutering. Ensuring the population can be controlled and sickness is not spread.

Through the help of fostering, volunteers and donations we hope to make this all possible while caring for these amazing animals.
