  • The breakfast story

    So, since last night’s squabble in the kitchen, Wii didn’t dare come back for breakfast this morning.  But Wii has a private entrance into my room, so here’s Wii, Vixey and Suki having their breakfast in the “private room”.  Suki has to be in the cage because she bee-lines for Vixey’s food first.  By the…

  • In the still of the night

    Suddenly, there was a loud shriek…I rushed into the kitchen, and…. No, this is not the starting of a new book, but what happened tonight. I was feeding the cats their supper when I turned my back to do something and there was a loud shriek and the bowls went flying all over the kitchen. …

  • Another stray cat spayed and soon to be adopted

    This is one of the many cats Rani feeds and looks after.  She is a stray and she has a very bad injury on her leg.  In the photo above, you can see the leg injury that is still red.  Although she has been treated, the wound does not seem to heal, so this cat…

  • Rescue 911

    While we were doing the adoption this afternoon, we saw this little kitten who was sick.  According to the fosterer, he stopped eating yesterday.  Judging from his condition, he looked pretty bad, so we offered to take him to the vet.  This is the little fellow.  He looked much worse than this.  He appeared very…

  • Two kittens adopted by two lovely little boys

    A nice lady called Rozy called me yesterday, asking me I had any male tabby kittens for adoption.  Do I have kittens?  Of course I have!  And even if I don’t, I will scout until I get the kittens.  After all, HOW often do we get people coming forward to adopt rescued or stray kittens? …

  • The “other things” that I do

    Do I do animal rescue work fulltime, some people have written in to ask me.  I wish I could, but I don’t have that privilege!  I teach mathematics for a living, so that’s my “official” profession, what I’m trained for.  And maybe it’s also good to clarify that I am NOT a veterinarian.  The “Dr”…

  • Two black beauties up for adoption

    Shamiela Jane wrote to me today, requesting that I help these two black beauties get to a good home.  Shamiela has been feeding Honey Gold and Ice Green, along with their mum for months now.  They are strays who live behind her house.  The two kittens are about 5 months old.  Both are female.   …

  • Neglected dog needs a home

    I received this request from Ms Lee. This dog is sort of abandoned by her owner. Always leashed up. At times not fed for days when the owner is not at home. They have another dog and she is always kept outside the house – rain or shine that dog will be outside the house guarding it. Both dogs also…

  • Some updates

    We do follow-up on our adoptions, but not through home visits as that can come across as being intrusive.  So we do it by email and sms.  And some of the adopters keep us updated regularly.  For example, Ervina, Raihan and Dr Veeranoot send us updates on Patches, BimBim and Kwanjai and Kwanta, and we…
