Luki & Mimi – New Friend Mika
20/02/13: Luki and Mimi have a new friend as of the 09.02 transport! Mika is another lovely cat from SOS Pechina, and he has had a very bad time recently. I first saw him there maybe 3 months ago and he had just had his right eye removed due to injury. He was in the big pen with the other cats and seemed terrified and …
Mimi
19/01/13: Mimi is a very beautiful, 4 year old, previously owned cat. She was bought as a kitten by her Spanish parents and was much loved by them. Her Mum Maria contacted me about 3 weeks ago quite stressed because she is pregnant and her doctor had told her that Mimi MUST go. This is a common situation in Spain. The doctors believe there is …
Tonyko
19/09/12: Latest news and photos have come re. Tonyko, now called Romeo: “Yes, he is sitting on the washing table if she brush her teeth, he is sitting on her lap if she is sitting on the toilet and he is sleeping under her blanket if she go to bed… I answered her that he is a good option instead of a man and …
Mimi – A Darling Little Kitten
15/09/12: Now I have Kerstin’s photos from Mimi’s arrival in her foster home. She does look great. She is however being a little witch to Tonyko who wants to cuddle her AND she HATES the lovely dog, so this will I am sure just be a foster home until the right family is found for her, with hopefully another sporty kitten!
14/09/12: Mimi travelled to Germany …
Mimi
28/07/12: Mimi is a lovely, cuddly rescue cat from the Mojacar area sponsored by PAWs. She came to the garden of a kind English lady, who fed her and gave her a temporary home. Sylvia, however, did not want to keep Mimi because she was too playful for her much older cats. She therefore traveled to Germany on the last transport to join FiV cat …

Amazingly after 18 months of re-homing cats and kittens, and lots of great news and photos from Germany, some people still doubt whether our strays are REALLY going to loving homes. Well here are 4 more fantastic pictures.

Update: 95 AND Counting!!!
An update is long overdue. I have been away in the UK for 2 weeks, with at times patchy internet access, and this week my priority has been getting the cats sorted over updating my blog. However I hope to be back on track soon, as I have lots of great photos to post and updates from the last transport of cats to Germany.
On …

Monty & Mimi News
It was a huge relief to hear that these 2 had arrived safely in their new home. I still can’t quite believe that we have achieved this. Or course they are tired and stressed and will take time to adjust, but their new owner sounds a lovely understanding lady. Kerstin has translated this email from her. We await more news and photos!
“News from Monty and …
Monty & Mimi’s New Home
I have posted a lot recently about our ‘special ones’, Monty and Mimi. These 2 really do need to be able to live together, and spend as much time as they like outside, as they have lived wild all of their lives. You can see from the photos in this post that Martina and Kerstin have found them the perfect home in Germany. …
Monty & Mimi Update
Monty and Mimi are doing SO well it is hard to believe. Well done to Nicola and Erika for being such brilliant foster parents. Yesterday evening they were both at my vet’s, Mimi just for a chip and Monty for his blood test, vaccinations, and chip. All went well, but as Begona was more comfortable with Monty tranquilised, he was understandably a little woosy …
Monty & Mimi News
Wow we have had a very stressful weekend. BAD decision of mine to put Monty in a different place to Mimi. I knew that Mimi needed to be in a cage to start off with, but as Monty is more tame, I didn’t want to put him through that, SO we decided that Pam could have him in her computer room. What I didn’t take …
Strays Update 26/06/09
This morning was busy but great for Almerimar Strays. Nicola and I took Mimi to Miguel, where she has been spayed, blood tested and injected ready to go to Germany. She is now back at Nicola’s in a big cage, and amazingly is letting us stroke her. She does look very nervous but I think over the next couple of weeks she may respond more …
Mimi Is Caught!!!
Wow I can hardly believe this but this afternoon, I actually caught Mimi in the trap. I decided not to set it, but to sit beside the trap and operate it manually. Over the past 10 days I have got Mimi used to going inside to eat, and although still wary, she couldn’t resist the bacon, chicken and tuna on offer. I was very patient …
Monty & Mimi Catching!
I have just had a stressful hour out in Calle Alcor with Pam trying once again to catch Mimi cat. This little madam, as I have posted before now, has a fantastic ‘forever’ home waiting for her in Germany, with a lovely lady who will accept and love her just as she is, basically pretty wild. She will be able to run outside in a …
Strays Update 22/06/09
The kittens are all doing well, and I am making progress with the cat trap. Mimi has been almost the whole way in so I am hopeful that I will be able to actually set it and catch her this week. Meanwhile in Darsena 2 our rather feral siamese continues to be a great protective mother to her brood of five, and to hiss at …
Quick Strays Update 19/06/09
Just back from feeding Monty, Mimi & Beau (her beau). Mimi is now looking much better and less fat, after 4 days of anti-lactating medicine. I now feel that I thoughtlessly neglected her after we picked up her Xabi kitten, but last litter she had no problem with excess residual milk. Anyway all seems well now, apart from the fact that she is definitely hanging …
More News From Germany
I have been exchanging emails today with Kerstin about Mimi and Monty. It is looking likely that we may be able to email their prospective adoptee directly which will put everyone’s mind at rest. Kerstin found this great home for Monty and Mimi several weeks ago, which is why I am now seriously trying to catch them.
This is good news, but obviously we will …
A Home For Monty & Mimi
Monty and Mimi are our ‘special strays’. Mimi is the daughter of my cat Saidi and the mother of Xabi our latest kitten rescue. She is now about 18 months, and we have known her since she was about 8 weeks! She runs towards me when I walk down with their afternoon meal but she STILL doesn’t like to be touched, and last time I …
Jasper’s Missing Balls!
Today was meant to be a quiet day, but Pam rang me early this morning to say that one of our semi-ferals was limping badly, and she was worried he may have broken his leg. I therefore arranged for him to go up to Miguel, as we had been planning on castrating him soon anyway, AND I also arranged for him to spend a few …
Strays Update 11/05/09 & Plan
A mixed news days today. We STILL haven’t caught the 4th baby kitten abandoned on the rocks. This is worrying as the poor little thing is now alone out there while the 3 others are sleeping with Nicola in her bed and eating well! Tomorrow they will come to the protectoria with us to be checked over by Miguel. They seem healthy enough, unlike the …
Abandoned v Street Cats
I’ve posted before about how sorry I feel for the abandoned pets, and how vulnerable I think they are out on the streets. This is why I get very frustrated when people tell us not to feed the stray animals here, because they can fend for themselves.
Genuine street cats know how to forage and hunt for food, and they are comfortable out in the wild …
Calle Alcor Update
Fed the strays on Calle Alcor as usual this afternoon, and left a little worried about Mimi and her kittens. She was there looking healthy and tucked into the meat and special biscuits I took her so all seemed well. She then however seemed to get disturbed by something as she was about to go through the gate into the normally empty house, where we …
Project Mimi Catch
UPDATE: 31/03/09
Damn! Still no joy, in fact worse than yesterday. NO paws inside the catch box today!!!
We have been actively trying to catch Mimi cat for several weeks now, since we saw her doing the deed with her latest beau! She is the most skittish of little cats, despite the fact we have been feeding her since she was about 6 weeks old. What she …
Stray Cats Update 05/03/09
Time for another update, mainly on our current foster kids as it is getting close to the time when they will leave us, either for Germany or for new homes here in Almerimar.
I am hoping to see Jos tomorrow to find out the exact date of the next transport to Germany (we hope the 13th or 14th), and finally be told how many boxes …
