Kyrenia Animal Rescue to join with iCatCare

We received an invitation this week from iCatCare (supported by Battersea) to attend their first free virtual event for those working and volunteering to help unhomed cats. It takes place on 13th and 14th November. Below is a copy of the press release, which we thought we would share in case any other animal welfare organisations or individuals are interested. Details on how to attend or for more information are in the following press release –

iCatCare launches free virtual event for the global unowned cat community.

World-leading educational cat welfare charity, International Cat Care (iCatCare), invites everyone working and volunteering with unowned cats to register for iCatConnect - a free virtual event on 13–14 November 2024 supported by Battersea. The event aims to connect attendees with a global community dedicated to caring for unowned cats to explore new ideas and ways of working.

Featuring over 15 international cat welfare experts, iCatConnect explores practical and inclusive ways to support each other in finding solutions to the global overpopulation crisis and improving the lives of unowned cats. Topics covered will include:

- Understanding cat behaviour to improve care and wellbeing

- Effective ways to help more cats in homing centres, using the principles of Cat Friendly Homing

- Cat friendly solutions for population management

- Running successful Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programmes

- Collaboration with veterinary professionals and other key stakeholders

- Improving community engagement

The two-day online event will also feature daily interactive Q and A sessions with the experts. For those unable to join the live sessions, recordings, and educational resources will be made available at a later date, with translations into Spanish, Portuguese, and Greek.

Vicky Halls, Head of Unowned Cats at iCatCare, said:

'It’s the event the cats in your care would want you to attend - a complete journey through the bigger picture of cat population management and the care of all unowned cats. So, whatever role you play, whether you do TNR, work in a shelter, foster cats, or run your own small cat rescue, you can see where you fit and get to appreciate that we are all part of a huge jigsaw puzzle with the common goal of improving the lives of cats everywhere.'

Simona Zito, Battersea’s Grants and Programmes Manager, said:

'At Battersea, we believe collaboration and community are key to helping cats around the world, and we’re proud to be supporting iCatCare’s brilliant new event as part of our Grants programme. We can’t wait to connect with fellow cat welfare champions in November.'
