Meet the catsTHE REALITY LAYER · PAREKKLISIA, CYPRUS
The work beneath the world.
The game invites a relationship. This is where that relationship opens onto reality: ninety-plus cats, daily care, clinical decisions, hard evidence, human labor, and the plan for a safer future.
ONE CONNECTED SANCTUARY
Everything now lives here.
The original Gardens of St. Gertrude information has been brought into Cat Gardens as the factual sanctuary layer. These pages remain on this domain so a visitor can move from game to cat to evidence without leaving the experience.
Why sanctuary is necessary.
Road danger, poisonings, shootings, dog attacks, abandonment, disease, and unaffordable care are real parts of the cat crisis in Cyprus.

Dr. Markos Ktori and Limassol Veterinary Clinic contribute to the sanctuary’s work. Individual records are published only after welfare-first review.
Meet the veterinary teamSpecific needs, visible outcomes.
Food, medical care, weatherproof shelter, land, safety equipment, media, and daily human care each require their own honest evidence trail.
See current campaignsCare is human time.
Feeding, cleaning, brushing, petting, transport, photography, and patient trust-building are all meaningful forms of sanctuary work.
Volunteer with Cat GardensOptional gifts fund real care.
Game progress never determines whether a real animal receives food or medicine. Donations support the legal nonprofit and should be traceable to real work.
Support the sanctuaryTHE LONG-TERM DREAM
From roadside risk to protected gardens.
The Mathikoloni concept imagines a large enclosed garden campus with warm indoor rooms, resident caretakers, visitor seating, existing palm, succulent, and grass gardens, safer distance from traffic, and more room for care.
What exists now.
A working sanctuary caring for more than ninety cats beside dangers that cannot be solved by good intentions alone.
See why change is urgentWhat must be built.
Protected boundaries, warm rooms, clean water, reliable staffing, veterinary access, cat-safe gardens, visitor space, and documented operations.
Enter Splotch’s dream portalA safer home with room to grow.
The property is a proposed future, not an owned asset. The game shows the vision while the sanctuary layer keeps the facts explicit.

Mabel’s and Splotch’s first real video stories are already part of Cat Gardens. Future updates, receipts, care notes, and fulfilled support can join their profiles without being confused with game fiction.
