Four kittens were found by a tourist during her holidays in Tholaria of Aegiali. The kittens were found next to their mother who had died--probably by poison. The tourist called us and we met her to receive them.

Rescued Kitten
Equine Care in Amorgos
Two Kittens Arrive from Koufonisi
Last week two 3-week old kittens arrived from the nearby island of Koufonisi. We gave them the names Mick and Esthel--both are girls. They were discovered by one of our most active volunteers, who was spending a few days in Koufonisi. The two kittens were crying nonstop but their mother was no where in sight. After waiting to see if their mother would return (there was no sign of her), the kittens were put on a boat to Amorgos where Litsa, our tireless coordinator, fed them milk by hand.
We suspect that something must have happened to the mother, and so the kittens were left all alone. We are looking for good homes for these two new additions and hope to find some when they are old enough to travel. To help care for these kittens and all the others like them, please consider making a donation to Animal Zone International. Thank you!
Equine Care
In collaboration with Animal Zone International & Filozoiki Merimna of Amorgos, the Equine Care Team of ANIMAL ACTION–GAWF will be making its annual visit to Amorgos in order to offer free veterinary, hoof and dental services to working animals—donkeys, horses, mules.
This will take place on Friday, June 26 and Saturday, June 27th. Anyone with donkeys, mules, horses that are in need of care can contact Animal Zone International at: 22850-71716 or 6974990045.
2-Day Vaccination Program for Stray Cats
Our two-day vaccination program took place on June 8 and 9th on Amorgos. This is a crucial part of our mission to keep the feral cat population healthy and clear of disease. To AZI Friends and Supporters: please consider making a donation to help us fund this program. To Litsa, our coordinator, and the amazing volunteer vets—a big warm-hearted thank you!
Update on Raki
Raki was brought to Holland to be adopted by a loving family in October 2014. She is doing very well and is a happy dog who loves the sun and her ball!

To AZI Friends and Supporters: please considering making a donation to help fund this program. Thank you!
Update on Heracles
After being adopted in December 2014, Heracles, now Raklee, is happy and healthy and enjoying a wonderful life in Holland. And, as you can see, he is still as handsome as ever!

Another Newborn Kitten Arrives
Update on Kittens
We made a mistake! One of the girls turns out to be a boy, so we now call him Victor. All three kittens are getting big and are demanding lots of attention!

Update on Caline
Here are some new photos of Caline, a blind kitten who now lives in Paris. She is loved in her new home and apparently everybody knows her in the neighborhood!
Sterilization Program
In February, during the week of Feb 9th, AZI conducted another one of our spay/neutering programs on Amorgos. We were hoping to do about a hundred cats but the weather worked against us, with four of the six days being very stormy, full of strong winds, rain and hail.
Catching cats in the rain is a huge challenge as you can imagine, yet we managed to catch and sterilize 68 cats (36 females and 32 males), with only 25 cats coming from Aegiali. That is a success considering the difficult conditions. We'd like to acknowledge Dr. Alice Degleri and Litsa Passari for their the hard work & dedication to the program. Thank you!
