Aisha Hussain 'Feline Friends International' Street Cat Rescue

This week Michelle speaks to Aisha Hussain all about her cat rescue mission to help the colonies of stray cats living in the UAE with friend Evelyn, who lives in Canada. Evelyn has also been working tirelessly to help stray cats internationally and together they are helping so many cats. Aisha is a British teacher currently living in the UAE with her husband. She quickly noticed a vast local problem with sick stray cats and wanted to take action to do something about this. So many of our fellow cat lovers and owners often feed cats on holiday abroad and whilst this is a beautiful sentiment there is a bigger problem that needs to be addressed. Aisha has been working hard to ensure that colonies of cats aren’t rapidly multiplying or catching diseases, especially living in such hot and harsh conditions. The two women aim to ensure that stray cats are set up on a neutering program; receive health checks, provide starving cats with food and water, and help cats find a foster or forever home. So many cats are testing FIV and parvo positive, which is heartbreaking. Aisha has been doing this work alone thus far and now it’s time for us as a cat-loving community to step up and help support. Aisha's sister called Henna has set up a go fund me page titled ‘Feline Friends International’ https://www.gofundme.com/f/4jjs4d-feline-friends-international so please visit the page, read what they’re doing and donate. Every little donation helps, so please help to save a cat's life today. We have set up a special PRIZE GIVEAWAY in this episode.
