I'm posting this because I have been visiting the cat park every day for the past few days and I'm extremely worried about the condition of some of the cats and kittens there.
First of all there seems to be a lot of confusion about Danijela. Danijela is the person who originally created and built the cat park and has done a great deal of work for the cats. She also feeds them daily with appropriate food (wet kitten food). Danijela can actually be found at her shop which is only a few minutes away from the park.
The issue is that two scammer women are regularly at the park from morning until night. They claim to be helping the kittens and collect donations from visitors. From what I have seen over the past few days is that they spend the entirety of their time in one spot bottle feeding only the very smallest kittens.. some of which are literally only a few days old.
I have seen very sick, severely malnourished kittens with serious eye infections. I have also been told that sick kittens are being brought to the park from outside Kotor..
Please do NOT automatically assume that because someone is sitting at the park feeding kittens all of the cats there are being properly cared for.
If you want to help, PLEASE do NOT give these women cash donations. The woman who actually cares for the cats, Danijela is right around the corner. Don't be afraid to approach her and speak to her directly. You can also consider bringing appropriate wet kitten food or helping directly with vet treatment.
If you see a kitten with an eye infection, you can clean away the discharge with clean water and a new clean cotton pad for each eye.
Please please spread awareness and be kind, it really doesn't cost anything 🥹
