<div>Whiskers of Hope is a neonatal kitten rescue and foster care organization based in Mauritius. We are committed to saving and caring for the most vulnerable kittens, those who have been abandoned or are too young to survive on their own. Our mission is to provide them with the love, medical attention, and nurturing they need to thrive.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The situation for stray and dumped kittens in Mauritius is severe, with countless kittens being abandoned right after birth. Initially, we set out to rescue and create a safe space for all strays, but due to housing restrictions in our rented villa, we shifted our focus to neonatal kittens. Thankfully, the kind villa owner agreed to allow us to foster these delicate babies, ensuring they receive the specialized care they require.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Once the kittens are rescued, they stay with us for 8 to 12 weeks. During this time, they are:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>- Nurtured with round-the-clock care
</div>
<div>- Sterilized
</div>
<div>- Dewormed
</div>
<div>- Vaccinated
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>After this, we begin the adoption process. However, we do not place the kittens with just anyone. We carefully vet all potential adopters by asking them questions to ensure that our kittens go to loving and responsible homes. The adoption process is thorough because we believe that after investing so much love, time, and effort, each kitten deserves the best possible future. So far, we have been fortunate to find wonderful adoptive families, many of whom still send us updates and photos of the kittens in their new homes.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Our Accomplishments</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>To date, Whiskers of Hope has rescued 1 cat and 14 kittens. We have successfully completed 11 sterilizations and vaccinations, and 10 kittens have found their forever homes. Currently, we are caring for two fragile neonatals and a kitten named Nelson, who is still waiting for his perfect family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In addition to neonatal rescue, we also feed stray cats in our neighborhood at night, with the goal of catching, sterilizing, vaccinating, and releasing them to prevent unwanted litters.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How Donations Help</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The donations we receive are vital for covering the various expenses that come with rescuing and caring for these kittens. This includes the cost of kitten milk, cat food, litter, vet bills, feeding bottles, sterilizations, vaccinations, deworming, and hygiene products like wet wipes, tissues, training pads, and sanitizer. Our Gofundme goal is to import an incubator and colostrum, which are currently unavailable in Mauritius, and purchase cages to help capture and sterilize the stray cats.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our foundation may be small, but our dreams are big. One day, we hope to open a full-scale cat sanctuary where we can continue to rescue, nurture, and find homes for even more vulnerable kittens and stray cats in Mauritius.
</div>
