Cats and Dogs of Alghero
Silvana Valentino Locke lives in Downe - Kent, but she originally comes from Naples. Her Italian familly home is on the island of Sardinia, where large feral cat populations can be found. Running Romney House Cat Rescue in Kent, is a full time and stressful job. Instead of relaxing in the sun during her trips back to Italy, Silvana actively searches out more suffering soles in need of her help.
"SOS Sardinia" is a project which aims to neuter & spay feral cats in order to limit & ultimately decrease colony sizes. The sick and injured are treated & regular feeding programmes are organised using local people who care.
