The Eagle has landed

Okay, day one. Started at 3am in Leeds, thru to driving through a raging downpour to Manchester and getting soaked even before getting on the plane. Anyway, 5 hours later and it's blazing hot, in the high 20's.... man, what a difference to Leeds. Got settled into hotel, gr8 view from 6th floor. Walked into the center if Athens, not an easy thing when millions of tiny side roads and NO SIGN POSTS! The city has a tired, run-down air,reminds me of Egypt. Saw my first cat around the Flea Market area near the acropolis, picking scraps from outside a restaurant. A few morefollowed. All looked healthy, but it there are still some tourists about so guess they are still getting some food. A few un-neutered males aabout as well. Let's see what the first day of trapping brings tomorrow.

GREEK CAT SOCIETY link

Okay, thought it would be useful for you to see where and the reason I am going to Greece: http://www.greekcatwelfare.moonfruit.com/ If you can help with any kind of donation or just spreading the word about the plight of these cats, it would be appreciated.

Update long over due...

Okay, no excuses, we've not updated for yonks! Good thing is we're off to Greece in a week to do some TNR work with The Greek cat Society. Kind of jazzed. Lots of firsts: first trip to Greece, first time TNR-ing out of the UK and first time working to TNR a large number of cats at once.Stay tuned, I;ll keep you updated. Promise!

How time flies

Well, it's August already and it has been several months since my last post. I intended to keep posting more updates on my trip to Torre Argentina, but time has just got away from me. I'll do another update in the next week when I have more time.
