From A Quarantine Cage Next To A Monkey To A Loving Home: Mika The Cat’s Journey

The MSPCA has shared an update on Mika, a cat who spent nine months in an airport quarantine facility after being brought to Malta without the required vaccinations.

Mika arrived in Malta in September 2025 but was taken to an airport quarantine facility because her vaccinations were incomplete. She spent nine months confined to a cage beside a monkey, while her owner never returned for her.

In an earlier post, the MSPCA explained how Mika had eventually found safety at its facilities, where she was slowly learning to trust people again while waiting for a new home.

Now, the animal welfare organisation has shared a heartwarming update showing just how much her life has changed.

"From a quarantine cage to paws in the air!" the MSPCA wrote, explaining that Mika is now living a carefree life, surrounded by love and enjoying her new home.

"All it took was the right home and the right people," the organisation added.
