Gaynor has been caring for the street cats of Paphos Old Town everyday for over 30 years. Come rain or shine, Gaynor gets up and does her 'rounds'. This involves taking care of over a 100 street cats over several colonies/feeding stations.
Gaynor provides them with fresh water, food, love, care and attention. Gaynor knows every street cat she looks after, and will take them to the vet should she notice anything physically wrong with them. The Paphos Cat Lady team also have an active neutering program in place, so any new cats that turn up to our stations are quickly trapped, neutered and returned to their feeding colony.
The reason for the fundraiser is to help Gaynor, the Paphos Cat Lady, with her daily work with the street cats.
We have a PayPal account, but have received feedback that some people don't like using PayPal! So we've set up this ongoing Go Fund Me fundraiser to give supporters of our work an additional way to donate and help.
€15 will help us neuter a street cat
€25 will help with our ongoing vet’s bills
I will run an ongoing total at the top of this page for this fundraiser. When the money has been used for neutering or vet's bills, I will share the details alongside a Facebook update (with cat's details and photos).
We thank you ALL for your support.
As we always say, we couldn't do everything we do, without YOU!
Please follow us on Facebook for daily updates on Gaynor and her work: https://www.facebook.com/paphoscatlady

If you're in the Paphos area, we have a food donation point at PetzStuff: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063934267895
If you'd like to see the Paphos Cat Lady herself in action, we suggest The Mosque feeding station in Paphos Old Town around Noon everyday (we cannot guarantee Gaynor will be there at a set time, it's dependent on cat emergencies that can occur beforehand!:
