Retiree requests continuation of pigeon food funding from Limassol Municipality

November 20, 2025

An 85-year-old retiree from Limassol is asking the municipality to continue funding for pigeon food. He claims he started feeding pigeons three years ago after finding out they died from starvation. The municipality provided some funding in the past, but it has now stopped. The retiree states he has spent around 8,000 euros and intends to continue his daily feeding efforts. The municipality's decision to withdraw funding is based on residents' complaints about cleanliness issues.
