New hospital container
Saturday 24 August 2019
Cats are very pleased about and intrigued by their new (hospital) container which arrived punctually on 24 August. During the days leading up to the event patients had been moved from the old container to the two enclosures and the area around the old container was cleared, The fridge and the washing up area had to be moved as well as the door opener (granting entry to welcome visitors) and the filing cabinet (office). However, the planning paid off, the strong team was confident and by the end of Saturday Cats were inspecting the strong shell of their future hospital . Once the vital air conditioning , water and electricity are fitted, feline patients, vets and carers can heal, recuperate and work in an improved, less cramped environment.

The Cats' Garden project continued
June 2019 Getting greener....
April 2019
After a long and fertile pause the garden project is sprouting shoots again. Cat loving volunteers transformed the car port into a Cats' playground with shelves for rest and play complete with dangling toys to chase. Plants were puchased and energetic visitors joined carers in potting and placing. Cats most gratefully received donated additions to the increasingly popular Green Corner. A garden team promised an impact on the palm garden and we have at least two carers who will support the Cats in keeping an eye on the budding plants.
If you want to donate plants (safe for Cats), functioning garden tools, compost or clay pots to the Cats Garden project, please text us on 99908714........

A thoughtful gift
10 February 2019
Primrose, an affectionate, delicate and fluffy Tal Madonna, is a thoughtful Cat. When she "won the lottery" and was homed early this year, she wanted to be remembered by a gift to her less fortunate brothers and sisters she left behind. She could not give to all, so she chose the Leukemia Cats. On the Feast of St Paul's Shipwreck (Faith, Hope, Charity, our Cats understand these concepts extremely well), they received signal red litter bins and easy to clean, distinctive, beautiful ceramic plates. If you consider, that leukemia is transmitted by urine and saliva, perhaps Primrose managed indeed, to consider ALL Csaf Cats.....(?)
A BIG GRAZZI from your Sanctuary friends, Primrose, and ALL THE BEST for your new life!!!!!!!!

Our enclosures now ready for all seasons
23 January 2019
On Sunday, 4 strong volunteers made a morning trip to help the Cats clear the 2nd enclosure and allow for the long awaited weatherproofing to the high standard already offered by the 1st enclosure since last summer.
On Monday the Cats, all in need of special care, could return to their highly finished "sanctuary in the Sanctuary". A big GRAZZI from all the Cats to their dedicated helpers! |
Visit from Happy Cat
17 January 2019
It was a brief, but full visit, very much enjoyed by all. Dr Rebekka Schneider and Denise Grech experienced the Sanctuary in full swing. They arrived simultaneously with a feral (!) Siamese rescued by concerned members of the public, a group of visiting students was just leaving and the morning shift of volunteers still busy. Once the visitors were welcomed by the 300 Cats, Csaf president Doris Zarb and vice president Grace Mifsud, information was flowing. Cats are excellent communicators once you speak their language.
