This is wonderful!! I'm curious how Lamu Animal Welfare Clinic is funded outside of public donations. Being an isolated island, I imagine donations are limited (until now with your video bringing awareness ❤). And thank goodness for Veternarian Peterson for helping the island's overpopulation problem. 👏👏

Stunning video. I’ve noticed that horses and barn cats have an affinity for each other. I knew one horse who would regularly cross his paddock to say 'hi' when his favorite cat jumped up on the fence

I bought that book for my mother in the 90s. We had been to Mombasa, but not Lamu. The Mombasa cats were long, thin and very "ancient Egypt" looking. No one seemed to own them, but that's probably true for most cats around the world. As in Lamu, they were fed fishermen's scraps, thus keeping the place clean.😺

My husband took me to his home in Istanbul and the thing that shocked me most was there were cats on the loose everywhere. It was so precious though, because it was the winter all businesses and restaurants let them inside. I sat across from a cat in a fine dining restaurant, while my husband was in the bathroom. They also let them hang out in H&M to stay warm
