What a lovely heavenly place! Also it’s so great that they have no risk of being struck by a car! I’m so glad you could help the vet with the kittens! 😻❤️
You are so absolutely correct! It's so easy and feels good to help those in unfortunate situations. I don't understand why more people don't care or try to help. Bless those who do 🥰
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
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. 👏👏
A little slice of heaven, on earth. I love how they trap and neuter the cats and that you have to walk everywhere. No cars! Thanks for taking us along on your trip, Hannah and Andrew. ❤
My husband and I visited Lamu 15 years ago and it was not as well known to tourists at the time! Not only do they care for cats but they had a lovely Donkey Sanctuary! They believed that donkeys worked hard and deserved vacation time. Lovely people...
I just wanted to thank you for showing us other parts of the world with cat populations and how society helps them. Lamu reminds me of some islands in Greece with overpopulation. You are a blessing to everyone you touch.
😭 Thank you so much Hannah for educating us, educating the veterinarian about kitten care and spreading awareness about this island and cats on general. We are truly blessed as are the cats that cross paths with you. 🙏 I'm so grateful for your existence and passion.
that is such a good idea to travel with anti flea and eye drops! for me its a big struggel to travel to other countries because i can't bear to see sick animals and not being able to help them! but travelling with medicine could actually work!
When I started volunteering at Alley Cat Allies’ TNR clinic back in 2007 (in Centreville, VA), we were all given the book The Cats of Lamu by Jack Couffer. Such a great gift. I cannot wait to go one day.
What a lovely community of sweet people and beautiful, loved kitties! Dr. Peterson is a delight! Kind, compassionate and doing such wonderful work. A brilliant young man, he is making such a difference in the world. Thank you, Hannah, for getting supplies and training to the doctor and his staff.
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.😺
Look at Hannah, the angel, spreading love all over the world. Your videos always put a smile in everyone's faces. I wish all your dreams become true!! Thanx for everything you do!!!
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
This is beautiful! I used to live close to Lamu! Thank you for your care? Please try to pronounce Lamu correctly ! The a is like the au in taught. When you visit foreign countries often it’s not too hard to learn the right pronunciation of their home land. It shows them respect as well!
How amazing! I love your travel videos with cats. I ran into a ton of cats years ago in Italy. One cat in particular was super friendly and very pregnant.
Thanks for showing about these kitties! I had a sandbox in the backyard for my kids years ago. I didnt cover it and lo and behold it became a litterbox. I was unaware of this and my kids went to play in it, ugh!! They got "empitigo" from it! so be ware! You are AWESOME for doing this to help these kitties!!!
ohmy I love this video. It's so good to see there are places where they care really good for the animals. Never seen so many healthy working donkeys at one place. Amazing. Lots of country (like Egypt) can learn from them
God bless this wonderful Dr. Peterson. What a wonderful man and an animal lover. Thank you, Ms. Hannah, for this wonderful video of people on the other side of the world, being kind to cats.
If it were me, I’d never go home once I got there ! I just took in four strays this year - one semi-feral and three others feral ! I’m hoping I can tame them all but only two right now allow me to pet them! This place would be like heaven to me !
Happy to see a place where stray cats are welcome. Very different here in St. Croix, USVI. We do all we can to TNVR as many as possible because it is not a great place for kittens to be born in the wild. Humans are their biggest predator. 😢
You are so kind😊 always educating us in term of cats. Good to know how other cultures take care of animals specially cats . Never heard of Lamu now I was educated.thanks
What a lovely heavenly place! Also it’s so great that they have no risk of being struck by a car! I’m so glad you could help the vet with the kittens! 😻❤️
I wish we had more car-free places like this in my country... :(
If all humans would treat all creatures and each other so kindly what a beautiful world this could be. ❤️
I agree! And a person can do that without any special training!
You are so absolutely correct! It's so easy and feels good to help those in unfortunate situations. I don't understand why more people don't care or try to help. Bless those who do 🥰
I loved this and I love that the people of Lamu are so nurturing of their cats and donkeys. Thank you Hannah and Andrew!❤️😻
i never cry, except for i cried happy tears watching this.
1:18
Would be very happy living there ❤️
Damn, are you gonna visit all of the cat islands around the world? Cuz I’m here for it
Me too
6:27 when everyone celebrates the moment the baby latches with “nice!”
my heart ❤❤❤❤
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
They are both sensitive, curious creatures

If I ever got to bottle feed a tiny kitten my heart would explode with joy! ❤❤❤

that vet + his team are heros
I love how they treat the cats. I'm sure the services the cat provide are equal to or better. This is great synergy.
God bless that vet
We need more people like you in this world
Isn't it funny that Lamu itself is in the shape of a kitty's face ! /ᐠ｡ꞈ｡ᐟ\❤️

What a wonderful little community on that island
its so neat how we show that cats have been fixed with the eartip here in the US and all the way in Africa too
I love how you foster kittens but also take the time to travel

Seems like such a 'pure' place. I love it.
It’s great to see there are people out there that are doing everything they can to help take care of the animals of our world 💕
Finally videos from Africa trip ❤️❤️❤️
Look at Hannah, the angel, spreading love all over the world. Your videos always put a smile in everyone's faces. I wish all your dreams become true!! Thanx for everything you do!!!
I’m in cat heaven I’ll would love to see the cats
Lamu is like paradise for cats! People love the cats there.
Amazing man helping kitties. And the local people are so kind just blown away by these kind people 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Dr Peterson, all the staff and the volunteers are heroes! 😍 What an incredible effort! 😸
My 3 cubs are rescues and tipped, here in NY.
This place is now on my bucket list!!
*This is a channel full of inspiration. Hopefully more people will be moved to care about cats, especially street cats ❤❤❤*
She’s a sweet angel of mercy
All love for Lamu ♥️
Me, normally fascinated by history and culture: yeah yeah get to the kitties already XD
Thanks Hannah for highlighting all those places where people are trying to help cats. Love from Italy 💜

❤❤thanks Kitten lady for visiting my home country. 🎉
Thank you for being a rescuer
I love the way the donkeys are used on Lamu, they seem just as happy as the feline citizens
What a beautiful place. Love to see the harmony between people, cats, and the wonderful surroundings. Thank you for sharing, Hannah.
Thank you for showing us and thank you so much to the people on Lamu who care for the cats!!
How amazing! I love your travel videos with cats. I ran into a ton of cats years ago in Italy. One cat in particular was super friendly and very pregnant.

This is what a cat island SHOULD be!
Happy to see a place where stray cats are welcome. Very different here in St. Croix, USVI. We do all we can to TNVR as many as possible because it is not a great place for kittens to be born in the wild. Humans are their biggest predator. 😢
Amazing! Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience with us! I'm happy to know about a happy place for cats
This reminds me of the cat island in Japan 😯
reminds me of istanbul as well :) the trifecta of cat counties lol
Haven't watched the video, but hopefully it's better than Cat Island.
What caring people! I love that ginger kitten with his piece of fish. His face totally said, “Get your own, lady! This is *my* lunch!”
i love cats
Cause you’re awesome 👏 ❤
She's so cute
Wow people are so amazing.
You are so kind😊 always educating us in term of cats. Good to know how other cultures take care of animals specially cats . Never heard of Lamu now I was educated.thanks
It's great that they are trying to spay/neuter them to avoid overpopulation problems
