Updates on 26th March 2024: Ms Chin contacted us again to ask if she could claim for a new ginger cat who is having runny nose whom she plans to get neutered. She says she doesn’t know what had happened to this white cat as they were under the care of the people “downstairs” and not looked after by her. We informed her that her initial agreement to look after this white cat was not fulfilled and therefore we are not able to help her anymore. We also reminded her that a sick cat cannot be brought for neutering until the cat has healed.
We asked her to check with her downstairs friends what had happened to the white cat. She called back much later to say the white cat had passed away “a year ago”. She didn’t even ask about the cat and she didn’t even know. We subsequently informed her that our aid is only for caregivers who look after the neutered animals themselves. As such we are not able to help her anymore.
Updates in Dec 2022: Ms Chin sent another black female cat for neutering and she claimed from us. Shortly after that, she informed us that the cat had passed away. Upon checking, she said she had sent the cat for spaying when the cat was sick and had not informed the vet about it. She said she didn’t know that sick cats could not be neutered. We advised her that the spaying procedure is a major operation and sick cats cannot be put under it. It is the duty of the caregiver to inform the vet that the cat had been sick.
The original post:
We have provided an aid of RM100 for the neutering of this female cat.
Ms Chin is a new applicant. She first wrote to us in Chinese but none of us in the Tag Team can read Chinese(!!) since we are all Malaysians who only know written Bahasa Malaysia and English. Her response through our e-form (below) is most likely google translated as well. So we cross-checked with the kind vet who provided us with more information about Ms Chin’s work. According to the vet, Ms Chin helps the cats behind and around her shop and her own cats are also rescued strays, all neutered and vaccinated.
