Finding a cat in Malta by krestrine

Hi everyone! I'm looking to buy and/or adopt a kitten here in Malta. I'm not looking for a show cat, just a cuddly companion. I know there is the SPCA, but I was wondering if this is the best place to go or if there are other options? Any advice ...

I got my cat through Antonella, haven't looked back. The guy who dropped her off said just please don't take her unless you're sure you'll take her with you if you leave Malta. Our cat is still with us after moving two countries and halfway ... Read More

Hi, The best one I found was at D Salon in Swieqi, her name is Lara and she frequently represents Malta at International hair competitions. Not cheap, a cut from between €30-€50 but bloody good, Vidal Sassoon trained. Read More

Hi Fallen-flame, We're unschoolers but my husband had a contract in Malta and we had to suck it up and send our boy to school, it is absolutely illegal to do it here. I did meet a Maltese/American family who homeschooled their teenage daughter ... Read More

Hi Booklover, Just to clarify a few things. As an EFL teacher in Malta you would have to have an A-level in English grade C or above and a recognised TEFL qualification. Online TEFL qualifications don't count. When you arrive in Malta you would ... Read More
