"Presenting...Dio"

After numerous visits where Dio neglected to make an appearance, I finally got lucky and managed to take some photos of Dio! The lady in the pictures is Dio's 'owner' or better to say the main person who takes care of Dio, as Dio is a street cat and doesn't really have an owner.
I'd like to thank everyone (on Dio's behalf) who helped raise money for Dio's operation and aftercare by buying a tote bag, donating money, re-posting or helping to spread the word!
Apart from a slightly wonky face - Dio is totally recovered, she can eat normally and do all the stuff that she enjoyed doing before her accident. She lives in a colony of cats in the Athens neighbourhood of Petralona which is not such a bad place to live as I live there myself...

  2. I love the pictures and I am so happy to hear that the cats of Petralona have a great friend in you! Visiting Athens (having family living there) I often bring some left over foods that my (spoiled, though they won't admit it) cats won't eat. It's always nice to be able to help a little bit.

    1. Hey Enok, its great that you help out and feed the cats here - most lead a completely different life to the pets of northern European countries.
      My mum always sends me food from England for the cats but there are so many I always feel that I can never do enough, but as you say every little bit of help counts :)
