Her story
One saucer of food.
Then everything changed.
Martina was living a quiet life on Paros — running a small studio, feeding a few strays in her spare time. Then, one by one, she could no longer look the other way.
What began as a saucer of food on a doorstep became a sanctuary for 85 cats: kittens abandoned in cardboard boxes, disabled cats nobody wanted, elders who arrived too thin to lift their heads.
Cats Eden in Paros is now a registered non-profit. It runs almost entirely on Martina's hands — and on the kindness of people who have never met her.
