Stray Cats of Santorini (Sterila)

Did you know that an estimated 14,000 cats die on the streets of Santorini each year? Deaths are caused by hunger, sickness, abuse, poison, and even hunted by dogs..

STERILA was founded on November 2016 by a local hotel owner and crying tourist to raise awareness and help end the suffering of cats on the island. As of 2023, we have sterilized over 4,000 cats and assisted around 600 adoptions but this is just the beginning of a long battle with the overpopulation of suffering stray cats!

It takes only 3 measures to reduce the massive plight of ill, homeless cats:

We depend on the generosity of our supporters to care for and sterilize the thousands of stray cats in Santorini, Greece. This crucial work wouldn’t be possible without compassionate people like you. Your kindness not only drives our current efforts but also brings hope for a better future for these poor animals!
