Sarah, Nette and Heli run the Fil\u00eda Laundry Shop in Kakovatos. One of the many interesting things going on here is the stray dog and cat project Straystories Kakovatos.<\/span><\/p>\n

We foster animals in need, especially hurt, sick and very young cats and dogs. We offer them a safe space to heal and take care of their medical treatments – sterilize them, train and socialize them by offering them a lot of love and affection. This helps the often shy and scared strays to learn to trust humans and eventually get a chance to be adopted. Thanks to a lot of volunteers who have stayed with us during the past years and given us sooo much time and energy for the animals we have been able to save precious lives and create a future for numerous helpless beings that would otherwise not have survived.<\/p>\n

Apart from bonding and training, there are a lot of unpopular tasks to do when you work with animals – cleaning after them, feeding, walking, vet visits several times per week, waking up every night to calm some barkers down…and all this without getting paid. The dedication of our volunteers is stunning.<\/p>\n

Some animals stay here for a few weeks until they find their forever home, some stay for years. We have limited space and resources and can not take in all the strays in need \u2013 for some of them we can only offer a castration and anti-parasite treatment and have to put them back on the streets…but if we see that an animal can not survive outside due to young age, a chronic illness or a handicap we usually welcome it to our little shelter.<\/p>\n

Luckily, we are quite successful concerning the adoptions as our laundry shop and community project is frequented by a lot of travellers and campers. When people fall in love with one of our animals they have the chance to spend some time here, get to know each other and find out if it’s the right match for them. If this is the case, we proceed with the adoption and let our strays go on their adventures with their new families, with all necessary vaccinations, microchip and EU passport of course.<\/p>\n

In the past three years we were able to give almost 100 dogs and a hand full of cats a home and our gallery is bursting with pictures of happy souls running through mountains, swimming in lakes and sleeping in the coziest beds with their humans. This makes us unbelievably happy and gives us the power every day to get up and do our job for the strays. We love to stay in touch with the adopters to see how our Fil\u00eda babies are growing and developing.<\/p>\n

Without your contributions, our work would not be possible. Thank you for your support \u2013 whether through donating, visiting us, volunteering here or sharing our contents!<\/p>\n

Hi! I am Henrik and the vice president of stray souls Ilia. Back in October 2022 we bought 3 acres of property to fulfill our lifelong dream of running this beautiful, non-profit animal sanctuary called grove of the voiceless.<\/p>\n

We are based in the small village of Varvasaina, Greece near ancient Olympia.<\/p>\n

Our dream is to create a safe space for neglected and \/or abused animals and have them live the rest of their life loved and in dignity. This means that the bulk of the animals that arrive at our place are mostly very old, sick or have some kind of problem that makes adoption highly unlikely. This is a place of peace and calmness to enjoy retirement.<\/p>\n

While dogs make up the majority of our current residents, we also care for every species that we can accommodate: Horses, donkeys or chicken, it does not matter. Hopefully in the near future we are able to rescue more factory farm animals.<\/p>\n

I have been living in the Peloponnese for 17 years and have been feeding stray dogs and cats for years as a lone fighter, providing them with medical care and having some of them neutered. Now we have joined together to form an NGO animal welfare association and, thanks to your donations, we can care for many more strays. Together we are stronger!<\/p>\n

Hi. I\u2019m Tino and I\u2019ve lived and worked on the Peloponnese for over 20 years. Since my childhood I\u2019ve been a big animal lover and as an individual I\u2019ve been helping stray animals\u00a0 for many years. I\u2019m grateful that with the forming of Stray Soul Ilias we have come together to make a real difference for the strays of the region. I\u2019m an all-round helper for the group\u2026including rescuing, local community liaison, translations etc.<\/p>\n
