Macaron, Pamuk and Baby Pamuk were microchipped as well. In total 8/10 cats were microchipped. One died before it could be microchipped and one had to be released. Any money that was initially collected for microchips and not needed (because not all 10 cats were microchipped in the end), was instead used for food for the cats at home and on the streets.

Coco, Oreo, Duman , Gölge II and Lady (who was renamed to Tedi) have been microchipped. Balım unfortunately died from giardia. I am looking for homes for Macaron and Pamuk, but they have not been microchipped yet. Their microchips are waiting at the vet clinic. If I can not find a home by the end of the year, they will be mirochipped.
Badem did not get along with the others at my home, so I had to put him outside in the feeding area instead. Releasing a microchipped cat outside is a punishable crime, so for that reason I could not microchip him.

5 of the 10 cats have been microchipped now. 4 more microchips have just arrived. One of them is for Baby Pamuk, who will stay with Birben.
Birben is still looking to find homes for the toehr cats. I fno homes are found, she will have them microchipped and registered under her name.

I lost my balım 💔 The other cats are doing well. They continue to live with me. We have ordered 8 microchips from the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and are currently still waiting for them to arrive at the vet. Once they arrive, we will inject them.

The names of the cats are: Lady/Tedi (chipped), Macaron (chipped), Coco (chipped), Oreo (chipped), Balım (died from giardia), Badem (did not get along with the other cats and had to be released), Duman/Smoke (chipped), Pamuk (chipped), Baby Pamuk (chipped), and Gölge II (chipped). Most of them have been with me for 2 years now, Oreo has been with me for 1 year already. I want to keep them safe.
My name is Birben. I live in Ankara and have been trying to rescue and treat stray cats since 2014. Except for Oreo and Macaron, all my cats at home are spayed or neutered. I also try to treat and spay or neuter stray cats as much as I can. I feed cats in three different locations in my neighborhood. There are a total of 20-25 cats. I've tried to find homes for the healthy ones, but it's very difficult, or perhaps due to the situation in Türkiye, I don't give them away unless I'm completely sure. Many people in my neighborhood either inform me or leave sick or healthy cats in my garden. Therefore, including the stray cats and the care at home, we consume an average of 78 kg of cat food and 30 cans of cat litter per month. And I owe a total of 9000 euros to two veterinary clinics. The hardest part is the accumulated debt I can't pay and the fact that I can't reduce the amount of food I consume daily (2 kg) because I haven't been able to find homes for them. These two things are interconnected. Because my veterinary debt is so high, it's very difficult to cover the food costs. Because so much food and litter is consumed, I can only afford to pay very little to the clinic. I'm only trying to get support through Instagram, but I'm not getting as much support as before.
