Her story

One saucer of food.
Then everything changed.

Martina was living a quiet life on Paros — running a small studio, feeding a few strays in her spare time. Then, one by one, she could no longer look the other way.

What began as a saucer of food on a doorstep became a sanctuary for 60 cats: kittens abandoned in cardboard boxes, disabled cats nobody wanted, elders who arrived too thin to lift their heads.

Cats Eden in Paros is now a registered non-profit. It runs almost entirely on Martina's hands — and on the kindness of people who have never met her.

We can't save every cat in the world.
But for these 60, and for the ones still to come —
we can change everything.

This winter

What €15,000
actually finishes.

A storage shed for food and medicine. A dedicated space for sick cats. Water and electricity extended to the new sanctuary buildings.

That's it. Not a vague mission, not an open-ended hope — three concrete things, before the cold sets in.

A few of us, every month, can finish it together.
