Maxine

Maxine is one of the many cats who have found a safe haven in Haven. Since she came to us as a kitten in August 2021, she has had a warm home. She came in with her mother and siblings when she was just a month old. Her third birthday is now approaching.

Like all cats at Safe Haven Egypt, Maxine has received her basic vaccinations against common cat diseases and rabies. She is also fitted with a microchip, has undergone a deworming treatment and had an anti-flea treatment. She is litter box trained and spayed.

About three months ago it was noticed that Maxine appeared to be blind, a condition she had not previously had. A specialist veterinarian confirmed this. It is not clear what happened, possibly the pressure in the eyes became too high for an unknown reason.

Despite only recently becoming blind, Maxine has adapted. Maxine is naturally friendly, but since her sudden blindness she is still insecure. She can sometimes scream loudly when someone touches her.

Maxine is also almost completely deaf.

Deaf & blind; This means that respect for her personal space is very important. Respectful people around her are needed.

Despite these challenges, she is good with other cats and has a calm nature.

Each Safe Haven Egypt cat travels with a negative rabies laboratory certificate, a sturdy cat box and all documentation of the cat.

Maxine, like all our cats, is an indoor cat. She is not allowed to walk around freely, but in a catio or a very well-enclosed garden, she can come outside. She is a loving cat who needs a caring home where she can feel safe and loved.

We ask potential adopters to our adoption procedure to read and tell us contact if there are any questions.

Noodle

Safe Haven Egypt presents: Noodle. – A cat with a classic story.

Before the operations

A year ago, she was a nameless, almost invisible, alley cat among countless other cats on the streets of Cairo. And street cats live a street cat life.

If they are not bitten by dogs, beaten or poisoned by people, they are killed.

Noodle had been hit by a car and lay dying with a broken jaw and a badly infected eye. Despite everything, Noodle was incredibly lucky that a good soul saw her and cared about her fate. Noodle was brought to Haven.

Thanks to the support of the SHE community, Noodle was able to have surgery on her jaw and eye.

Unfortunately, the heavily infected eye could not be saved and had to be removed to prevent further infections. And with her remaining eye she can see almost nothing, although it looks fine. Antibiotics cannot solve everything. – So in practice Noodle is as good as blind.

shortly after surgery

Noodle has now been able to recover from her accident in the safety of Haven for a year. With medical care, without hunger. Without danger. With only friendly people.

She is now estimated to be 2 to 3 years old. Noodle is not (yet) a cuddly cat that constantly demands attention and hangs around your legs. But she certainly appreciates it when people come and give her some love.

Noodle can best be described as a calm cat. And she doesn't really like a lot of fuss. With her adoptive family she would be best kept with no more than two or three other cats. She will appreciate a quiet home.

November 2023

Practical: Noodle is ready to go. She is chipped and sterilized. Has had her vaccinations against common cat diseases. Has been dewormed. She will travel with her negative Rabies certificate. And of course all relevant documents.

Her new home must be a safe home. That is an absolute requirement. Noodle cannot and should never again find herself in a situation where she could end up on the street. There are no safe neighborhoods with 'quiet streets'. A car on a quiet road or a busy road is equally dangerous.

Therefore, Noodle must be an indoor cat. Or is she only allowed to go outside in a very, really very, well-closed garden from which she cannot escape. Which is possible but not easy. Or a cat run building can also be an option. – Whatever you do Noodle's must be safe.

Would you like to give Noodle a safe, quiet haven where she can live her best cat life? – Then take a look at our adoption procedure to see how this goes.

And if there are any questions – Pleaseask them.

Noodle doesn't fit into your life right now? – Maybe you know someone where she could find a good home. Sharing is caring!
