Kwanjit’s babies

It was sometime 2 years ago after Dr Veeranoot had read my first book, Pawprints on My Heart, that she contacted me and said she would like to help me by adopting any two of our rescued cats. 

That’s how Kwanjai and Kwanta came to live with Dr Veeranoot.  I still remember the evening when I brought them to the kind doctor’s house.  At that time, Dr Veeranoot had had no experience in dealing with cats at all.  She had bought a big packet of food, food and water bowls, a litter box with litter and two small little cages in preparation for the cats.  She was so thoughtful, she even put up little notes with the names “Kwanjai” and “Kwanta’ and tied them with ribbons on the two cages.  It was so sweet, my heart melted. 

This is going to be another angel, I thought to myself.  Never mind if she has no experience, she has the heart and experience will come with time. 

However, the cages were really too small, so I suggested that Dr Veeranoot exchange them for a bigger one with tiers.  Dr Veeranoot said she would, but for now, I suggested that she let the kittens roam freely in the house. 

Dr Veeranoot got a bigger cage later and donated the two smaller cages to AnimalCare.  I have since redonated these two smaller cages to two rescuers. 

I still remember what Dr Veeranoot said that first evening as I was about to leave.  She said she would try her best to look after Kwanta and Kwanjai, but if she could not do a good job, she would return them to me. 

That was fair enough, of course. 

I’m glad that did not happen!

In no time, Kwanta and Kwanjai became the light of her life.  They enjoyed total comfort, lots of unconditional love and had a free run of the bungalow and the garden.  I was in constant email contact with dr Veeranoot to offer her all the support she needed.  And I don’t think they were ever in the cage too.  They ruled the house!

Unfortunately, recently, Kwanta went missing one day and despite Dr Veeranoot’s efforts to find her, she was no where to be found. 

Kwanjai was alone. 

Shortly after that, Dr Veeranoot adopted one of the Chetawan kittens.  Now, Kwanjai has a new baby brother, Kwanchai.  The kind doctor even fostered the rest of the Chetawan kittens as well. 

And not long after that, Dr Veeranoot found a pregnant mother-cat in Section 17, PJ.  She did not want to leave the cat out there subjected to the harsh elements, so our volunteer lent the good doctor a carrier and that’s how Kwanjit came to live with Dr Veeranoot, Kwanjai and Kwanchai.

Kwanjit gave birth shortly after that, in the safe and comfortable home of Dr Veeranoot.  There are SIX kittens now.   

Here are her kittens now, at 4 weeks old (photos below).  All of them are up for adoption.  Dr Veeranoot will keep Kwanjit, the mother.
