How The Medina Crew Became a Protected Feeding Route
The journey from scattered cats to an organized, monitored crew in the heart of Marrakech's old city.
When we first started tracking cats in the Medina district, we encountered scattered individuals with no clear pattern or protection. Through consistent observation, careful documentation, and collaboration with local shopkeepers and residents, we established what is now known as The Medina Crew.
This crew has become a model for how structured care can transform street cat welfare. Daily feeding routines, regular health checks, and a network of local observers ensure that every cat is monitored. The busy souk routes that once posed dangers now serve as a protected corridor where cats can thrive under watchful eyes.
The success of The Medina Crew shows that with community involvement and systematic tracking, even cats in the busiest urban areas can receive consistent care.
