Missing Cat Bibi: Searches at Larnaca and Athens Airports

A cat named Bibi, blind in one eye, went missing during transport from Larnaca to Athens and then to its final destination. The incident occurred on March 28, 2026, and has raised concerns as it is the second similar case in a year, following the disappearance of the cat Mika at Larnaca Airport in September 2025. Despite assurances that the crate was safe and inspected, Bibi vanished during the journey. The Ecologists' Movement denounces the repeated occurrence of such incidents, which endanger the lives of animals being transported. It is emphasized that the lack of safety during animal transport is a serious problem that needs to be addressed immediately. The possible locations where Bibi may have been lost are Larnaca and Athens airports. The coordinator of the animal action team, Anthi Mouzouri, calls on all involved parties to conduct a thorough investigation of the incident and help find Bibi. Investigations to locate Bibi are already underway, which is considered positive. Immediate mobilization of everyone is crucial, as Bibi is alone in an unknown environment, with an increased risk to its life. The case is reminiscent of Mika's, who was found after nine days.
