will be kept indoors
to avoid her
fighting or sharing
food with
unprotected cats.
Patty has a sweet
personality and
deserves a second
chance at a forever
home.
CAS is always eager to hear from people who are interested in
becoming shop volunteers. One four hour shift once a week
makes a big difference. There are always two volunteers per
shift making for a safe, relaxed, congenial environment.
For more information please stop by the shop and ask to speak
with our shop manager May Delaney.
Could you help?

Each month CAS
allocates €500 to help the homeless kitten and cat population
in Nerja, Maro and the surrounding countryside. Unfortunately
in the process of rescuing our feline friends and providing for
the stable cat colonies that we are aware of those funds are
quickly exhausted.
CAS is always in need of more volunteer
helpers in a number of areas so if you have
spare time to fill, please make contact! In
particular, we are currently seeking someone
who can help with fundraising and social
media promotion. In addition, fosterers are
always required to take short-term care of
animals until a permanent home can be
found. CAS provides fosterers with all they
need: food, medicine, bedding, leads, etc., as
well as advice at any time. Even if you are
only here for few months a year, CAS would
appreciate your help. For a no-obligation
chat, contact CAS President Vera Newing on
95 252 9670. And despite the uncertainties
of Brexit among other things, money is
always needed to cope with the continuous
flow of abandoned dogs and cats requiring
help from CAS. If you could donate a
little to help the animals, CAS would be
most grateful.

Examples of costs incurred include: food, blood tests,
neutering, vaccinations, treatment for worms, fleas and ticks,
microchipping and providing the cats with passports for
rehoming abroad. If foster homes cannot be found, kenneling
costs can quickly escalate. Thus, the adding machine tape runs
on and on.
Life on the streets for a homeless cat is one of constant danger
and a tireless quest for food and shelter. If you would like to be
part of our team helping to shepherd these lovely animals
from the mean streets to loving, forever homes please contact
Fiona via [email protected]. You can also make a
financial contribution earmarked for the cat account. Meow!
