For the past two years, I have been volunteering to look after a registered cat colony in Maganuco and am committed to ensuring these strays can lead a dignified life.
Unfortunately, I have realised that this is merely a drop in the ocean, as the problem of stray cats cannot be solved in this way.
One night, I dreamt of mobile veterinary clinics that would provide on-site care for the rural population’s small pets and Sicily’s countless strays.
Since early 2026, I have been dedicated to realising my vision of happy stray dogs in Sicily.

Here is my current project:

A mobile vet specialising in stray animals, who looks after the pets of people living in poverty and stray animals, in order to fill a huge gap in veterinary care.

The solution...

Just as people in Naples pay for a ‘caffè sospeso*’ for a stranger, your monthly micro-donation supports the ‘VETmobil©’, the mobile veterinary service.

Even a small monthly donation, when combined with many others, can add up to something truly significant. Together, we can fund mobile veterinary services, run feeding stations for animals and, above all, prevent

1. Help for people in need...

...For many people living in poverty, their pet is their only loyal companion, a source of comfort and social interaction. The fear of losing their pet to a treatable illness, or of being unable to treat it due to the cost, places an enormous psychological strain on them. The mobile veterinary practice alleviates this worry and strengthens the bond between people and their pets.

2. For use in rural areas...

...The small vineyards, the abandoned farms. In places where the nearest vet is often dozens of kilometres away and transporting these shy animals seems impossible. It is precisely in such places that the VETmobil© becomes a real lifesaver."The “VETmobil” is a mobile veterinary practice for rural areas, small vineyards and abandoned farms. In places where the nearest vet is often dozens of kilometres away and transporting skittish animals seems impossible. “It is precisely in such places that the VETmobil© becomes a lifesaver.”I realise that it will take some time before the first results become apparent. But if we don’t start now, when will we?

Together, we are a strong team.
