This blog was initially created to track my volunteer time at the Rome cat sanctuary in March/April 2008. That time has come and [sadly] gone, so after some thought, and rather than leave the blog idle, I have decided to record my trapping experiences whilst working with the various local Leeds cat charities.

Acropolis cats
A few cats roaming around the Acropolis, up by the Parthenon they were pretty tame and you could stroke them. Most looked well fed, if what I saw was anything to go by a diet of insects such as butterflies! Yes one guy actually stalked, caught and ate a butterfly. At the foot of the Acropolis round one side is a wall-off area where about 3 adults cats and a good dozen kittens were. The area didn;t looked used and was chained up. The guys were just screaming out for someone to go in there and TNR. It broke my heart to see the kittens frolicking with each other in the grass without a care in the world, but some of the older ones already had a world-weary expression as if they knew their fate ahead of time.....
