Hi Dr Chan,

Firstly, thank you very much to AnimalCare for agreeing to provide
neutering and medical subsidies for the stray cats/kittens as part of
my neighbourhood TNRM program. I have posted the completed subsidy
forms, original receipts and other necessary documents. The following
are the cases that I’m applying for:

1) Blondie, Snowball & Sylar the 3 kittens <3kittens.jpg>
I’ve went to collect the 3 kittens for their booster vaccination and
got to know the names provided by the feeder although I still have
trouble distinguishing them. Unfortunately, the three kittens were
found to be suffering from bad ulcers on their tongues which could
explain their worryingly small weight gain of only 100-200g after
about a month. As a result, the vet recommended to delay the booster
vaccination for another two weeks but dewormed them. They were also
found to be full of fleas and were thoroughly Frontline-sprayed. I’m
continuously trying to persuade the feeder to give them up for
adoption as they are left in the open to roam the backlane. Thus, I
would like to apply for a subsidy for just the deworming.

2) Nuar the rescued black kitten <Nuar.jpg>
When I went to talk to the feeder, she alerted me that there was a
black kitten at her backlane which no one has seen before but he was
overly-friendly and trying to get into everybody’s kitchen. All of
them shooed the poor kitten away because it was very ‘ugly’. I was
apprehensive that the kitten would have some serious health problem
which may lead me to put him to sleep but when I seeked him out,
thankfully it was just mange. I suspect whoever owned him didn’t know
how to deal with the treatable skin problem and dumped him. I took him
to the vet who gave him an injection which doesn’t cost a lot and in
less than two weeks, he was already looking good! I hope everybody
will learn that mange is inexpensively treatable and will help any
animal that has it. I’ve also vaccinated him a few days after. Thus, I
would like to apply for a subsidy for the mange treatment and
vaccination.

3) Borg <Borg.jpg>
I went to the backlane to check out Tam the spayed mother cat and her
kittens when I encountered the male stray cat which has been going
around impregnating goodness-know-how-many cats. I think it must have
been the haze because he stayed lethargic while I quickly went back to
get my makeshift cage. I managed to move him to the cage but not
before a great struggle with all his claws and fangs sunk into my
hands which were thankfully protected by my think gloves. He has been
subsequently neutered and later, vaccinated. I’m caging him for the
time being because the vet noticed that he looked anaemic. Thus, I
would like to apply for a subsidy for his neutering and vaccination.

Thank you and best regards,
Koo
