The rescuer:

 

“Hello, I am Sabriye Aldemir.

 

Since March 2020, I have been caring for cats at the Marmara University Faculty of Theology in Istanbul; I provide treatment and neutering for them in that area. The university administration permitted me to look after the animals, yet the university does not have a budget for them.

 

The expenses have been covered mostly by myself, sometimes by my close circle of friends and family and very little by international support:

I have to buy food (normal cat food and special needs food) for the cats. Sometimes, I take them to the Üsküdar municipality clinic for treatment. Sometimes, I have to take them to private clinics since the municipality clinic is insufficient for the cats` needs.

Approximately 70 cats are currently living on the campus.

I showcase these areas on my Instagram account. I have neutered about 60% of them. I neutered most of them at the municipality, except those requiring gas anaesthesia. Cat-loving students helped me distribute food and take sick cats to the Veterinarian.

 

Thank you for your support.”
