Here is some great news from Danica and all the beautiful cats at shelter Felix:
We have great news that will certainly cheer you up! Amazing Nancy and her wonderful organization Straydogs Belgium have kindly donated some constantly needed high quality cat food and cat supplies to the Felix kitties. The cats were excited and thrilled to see all of the many nice things they’d just received. As you can see in the photos, they could hardly wait until the boxes were opened (many of them tried as hard as they could to help us unpack their gifts) and almost all of the cats immediately launched themselves inside the boxes to check out every single item they’d gotten. A huge thank you to Nancy and Straydogs Belgium for making our day bright and really special! We extend our deepest gratitude to Adamovic Gordana, our long-time supporter and friend who made the fantastic Straydogs Belgium aware of our existence. The crunchy sounds the Felix kitties are making while eating their kibble is real music to our ears! It’s been said a long time ago that pictures are worth a thousand words, so we’re sure you’ll enjoy our photos!
At the moment we are in Autumn, but very soon we will start to be seeing the Winter weather arriving in Europe. When it does we shall probably see the long dark days that will bring with them the snow storms and biting North winds coming down from the Arctic. That means that once again it will be time to do our best to ensure that all the cats at the shelter are snug and warm during the long dark days.
Last winter you may remember that we did an appeal top get the gas tank filled for the shelter ready for Winter.
Well this year it is no different to the last; but this time we (SAV) are trying to get the ball rolling in advance of an appeal from Danica which will probably be issued very soon. If you can help in any way please by donating to keep all the cats warm this Winter by topping up the gas tank then we will all be very appreciative.
At the moment please make any donation for Winter gas through the normal routes of the website and blog :
PayPal button is on the blog:
and the website:
Please can you mention that the donation is to help with Winter fuel. Thank you very much on behalf of all the crew and cats at shelter Felix.
The good news is that the main shelter roof has now been completely renovated – so this Winter there should be no worries about anything collapsing under the weight of the snow; which has been a concern with the old roof in the past.
Expenses are huge throughout the year for the shelter; as there are veterinary bills to pay, including regular de-worming, de-fleaing and vaccinations; fuel for the shelter; general maintenance and also the cost of keeping everyone fed !
Please give anything you can to help the shelter with its everyday costs.
We will sign off by showing you some pictures of all the shelter residents inspecting all the parcels which arrived from Nancy in Belgium (as mentioned at the start).
Please give anything; no matter how small; to help the crew at shelter Felix have an easier time this Winter.
Thank you – Mark at SAV (England).

A new video (link below) from Felix showing some of the cats – plus other ‘cat’ video links –
Autumn Rhyhtm cats
Figaro’s feeling much better after just two days of medical treatment.
His body temperature has returned to normal, he’s got a healthy appetite and he behaves like he always has, half playful and sweet, half grumpy. If he stays this way, his leg surgery and neutering will finally be done next week.
Hopefully he’ll recover smoothly, without any additional problems; heaven knows he’s had enough of those already.
Above – Figaro
To support Felix and to make a donation to support all the cats please visit:
Take a look at the Felix shelter website
and blog to see who you’re supporting!
Purrfect for all your cat information !

Pictures – CIWF London.
Last Friday, Compassion’s #CowOnTour started her 7-stop European trip to protest against live exports from the EU.
The tour was launched outside the EU offices in central London. Protestors came from far and wide to stand shoulder to shoulder and say NO MORE LIVE EXPORTS!
And those at the protest weren’t alone.
The online #CowOnTour petition has already been signed by over 68,000 people and, at the end of the tour, all those signatures will be delivered directly to the European Commission HQ in Brussels.
Compassion’s #CowOnTour has now also collected her very first real-life signatures all over her body – including that of Harry Potter star, Evanna Lynch, who was the first person to sign.
Live Export Disaster
We recently discovered that a livestock vessel with 5,000 cattle aboard, overturned while still at its loading pier, in Brazil.
Due to depart for Venezuela, the ship started taking on water and eventually capsized next to the pier.
Onlookers took videos with their mobile phones, which show the horror the cattle endured in their final moments.

Ok , friends , I finally can think and realise was happening in last 24 hours .
Not only do you led me to believe again in miracles , you have gave opportunity to our dogs to live on safe . For me that is not small thing and forever we will be grateful for everything that you have done to us .
In total was collected : 2602 EUR . But that is not all ! Our dogs got sponsors , so now only 4 from 20 have no sponsor !
This is amazing, big relief for us and I must say again THANK YOU !
Next step for us is 5 titer test for dogs in boarding.
With 4 dogs who already have titer it will be 9 dogs who can travel to new life .
Soon I will post pictures of those dogs because they will need foster or forever home and I will ask you for one more favour – to share their stories . 🙂

UPDATE!
VICTORY FOR BORKO AND HIS FRIENDS..!!
-A BIG Thank you to all of you who signed the petition!
But Please Please continue to share Borko’s petition:
-The more voices we can get condemning the actions of this Mayor, the more embarrassed the authorities will be and more likely to step in against the Mayor!! Thank you!
A last minute decision of the Smolyan Administrative Court STOPPED the preliminary execution of the intended by the Mayor of Devin seizure of Borko and his family.
A small group of animal welfare activists, journalists and Borko supporters occupied early in the morning the Surgery in the village of Selcha, waiting for the municipal “action group” to arrive. They had already been informed by Dr. Litov’s attorney of the court’s decision, but were not sure if the Mayor would comply with it.
An hour later the group drove off to the town of Devin to meet and confront the Mayor himself and ask for explanation of his intended actions. The coward had run off and could not be found anywhere. Instead, the Mayor’s legal adviser and the municipal property manager were questioned thoroughly.
It became evidently clear that the authorities were becoming very concerned by the international uproar, caused by the death threats to Borko and his family.
They were assured that unless they take all necessary steps to remedy the situation and guarantee that Borko and family will never be threatened again, the international pressure will continue non stop with all negative consequences. We’ll wait and see.
Borko is alive and well and sends hugs and kisses to all those who stood up for him.
