1. In Morocco, Hind is running out of kibble to feed the 200 stray cats in her care, they will starve if this campaign fails!
“Right now, things are extremely difficult. I take care of around 200 street cats, and lately the number has gone up, mainly because of abandonments and uncontrolled births. That obviously means more mouths to feed, while I am completely running out of food.
I have almost no kibble left. Just two bags. So I am forced to make choices I hate making. I have been rationing for a month now, and the cats no longer eat like they used to. They eat once a day, and sometimes, when I really do not have enough, only every other day. And when there is no kibble, many of them are left with leftovers, sometimes even bread. I know very well that it is not suitable, but I have nothing better.
And of course, it shows. They are hungry. They are weaker. In winter, with the cold and the damp, it is even worse. I am really struggling with this emotionally, because I see them every day and I feel completely powerless. I am doing everything I can, but right now I cannot make up for the lack of food anymore.”
2. The cats are losing weight, infections are returning, and fights are breaking out. Without kibble, things could spiral fast...
“With the lack of kibble, and the fact that we sometimes have to rely on leftovers or bread, the impact on the cats is visible very quickly. I see them losing weight, they have less energy, they cannot cope as well. And inevitably, they become more vulnerable. They get sick more easily, feline flu comes back, infections settle in, and some of them cannot recover.
There is also another side, one you do not see in photos, but that I see in the field. Hunger changes their behavior. They are more tense, more nervous. I see more fights around food. They push, they fight, and the weakest ones are often driven away. That scares me, because it can quickly turn into injuries and infections.
If I do not find kibble very soon, I know exactly what will happen. They will grow weaker, diseases will take over, and we will lose some of them. That is what is consuming my thoughts right now. I feel that the situation could collapse at any moment.”
3. Chronic respiratory infection, runny eyes, constant fatigue. Without kibble, Noirou will quickly collapse.
“I have known Noirou for a very long time, since he was about six months old. He arrived in the neighborhood very young, and he quickly developed feline flu. The problem is that he did not receive treatment at the beginning, and now it has become chronic.
Today, his condition is very fragile. His nose and eyes often run, he is tired, and above all, he has lost a lot of weight. He is not an aggressive cat, quite the opposite. He is calm, discreet, and fairly social with people he knows. But you can feel that he is just hanging on, doing the best he can, with no safety margin at all.
With his feline flu, his immune system is already weakened. If he does not eat regularly, he loses strength very quickly and can no longer fight the infection. Noirou is exactly the kind of cat for whom kibble makes the difference between holding on and collapsing.”
4. Everything is getting more expensive and donations are falling behind. Without this campaign, Hind will have to stop feeding more than 200 street cats.
“Financially, I will not lie, it is extremely precarious. Donations are irregular, and they are decreasing because of the economic situation. We have no reserves, nothing to absorb a crisis. And now, between the rising cost of kibble, fuel, and veterinary care, it has become impossible.
I have unpaid veterinary bills, and I know I cannot settle everything the way I should. I have already launched emergency appeals, rationed food, tried to hold on like this. But we are reaching the point where I am afraid I will have to stop feeding altogether, simply because there is no food left. Just thinking about it makes my stomach knot.
This campaign is crucial because it directly determines what happens next. Without kibble, I can no longer provide even the bare minimum. I cannot stabilize the cats’ health, I cannot prevent relapses. And that puts more than 200 cats in immediate danger.”
5. Hind is not asking for money, only for kibble, to prevent the cats from starving.
“I have been committed for a long time to helping the animals in my country, cats, dogs, all of them. I do my best to help because the situation here is truly harsh. There are constant abandonments, sick animals, uncontrolled births, and very few structures to help. So we do what we can, we adapt, we keep going, even when we do not have the resources we should.
What people do not always see is the weight of this responsibility. You have to feed them, monitor them, handle emergencies, organize care, travel, answer calls, and constantly count what is left and wonder how you will manage tomorrow. Right now, it is exhausting, both physically and mentally. I often feel overwhelmed, but I cannot bring myself to give up. On the streets, they are waiting, and at the shelter, they depend on me.
I also see how much help can change everything. When a campaign works, we can fill the bowls, keep hunger at bay, stabilize the most fragile ones, and continue treatment. Even a small gesture, repeated by many people, becomes enormous. Alone, I cannot keep going long term with so many animals to feed. With a community, we can truly give them a chance to eat, regain strength, and survive.”
