Meet Walaa
My Vision
My vision is a world where no animal in Egypt has to suffer alone on the streets. I strive to create a future where compassion replaces cruelty and every rescue cat finds a path to a loving forever home. Beyond providing immediate medical care and shelter, I aim to inspire change within my community and build a global bridge of support. At SunPaws, I believe that every life is precious, and I won't stop until every "forgotten" soul in Luxor is seen, loved, and safe.

The Heart of SunPaws
In 2018, I founded SunPaws in Luxor as a tribute to my late mother’s memory. What began as a sanctuary for those with no hope soon became my lifelong mission. After tragically losing my beloved rescue dog, Bella, to an act of cruelty, I vowed to dedicate my future to saving the helpless. Today, I tirelessly protect Luxor’s most vulnerable animals, turning my own grief into a source of light and safety for every soul I rescue. Every cat I save is a part of Bella’s enduring legacy.
