We are sad to inform you that Mimi passed away yesterday morning. She was doing very well under the tender loving care of Sue and her hubby, but she suddenly went down at about 3am.
We won’t know the cause of death and it isn’t important now. What’s important is that Sue and her hubby did their best for her.
May Mimi rest in peace now.
Whenever we lose a stray kitten, especially one that was rescued “a bit too late”, it only reminds me the urgency to practise CNRM in order to control the breeding of stray animals. They lead a hard life out there on the streets and only the fittest can survive.
Please, let’s work together and do CNRM on our own street. Just take care of your own street and you are already making a difference.
We are already providing the vets AND the funds. You catch them (if you can) and bring them to us. We get them spayed/neutered, and you can return the adults to the colony. They won’t breed anymore, and we won’t have so many Mimis dying on us.

Goodbye, Mimi love, may you rest in peace … you have suffered so much for one so young … God, you haven't even lived and so fast you are already gone … like little Charity that I had found lying facedown wet, cold and motionless in the drain after a pouring afternoon.
I could not save you either, but I know that short as your life had been, you had suffered nothing but immense pain because in the hours before you finally died, weak as you had been, you had squeaked and jerked in pain as the worms burrowed through your heart and lungs, savaging your tiny little body.
KY, that is why I share your conviction deeply that it is imperative that we push ourselves to the limit in order to save as many as we humanely can because they are suffering and dying around us and we simply cannot stand and do nothing in apathy. At the very least, we can help ease some of their suffering.
Thank you. We need more CNRM-ers. Come, please take care of the strays on your street.
Yes, incredible as it may sound, there are many, many who stand by in apathy doing nothing to help, fully convinced that as long as they are not doing anything evil in life they are ok.
But then they are not actively doing anything good either! Neither here nor there ….
In the Bible God says, "I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm–neither hot nor cold–I am about to spit you out of my mouth".
Simply not doing anything evil doesn't mean that you are good … you have to DO good to be good.
Sorry about Mimie, Sue and KY, cherish her memory, your lives touched … and it was a priviledge … a very precious one indeed …. to do good!
Love always,
Mar.

Bless the little kitty's soul. That's is why it is important to have tested the kitten to determine if she was infected – could have been parvo or some other feline virus. Once tested and escartained – the vet can draw up a drug combination treatment – together with good nutrition, the poor kitty could have been cured of her ailment. screening is important. It is something all rescuers must do.
Another anonymous person said the same thing, and I've already told her that the vet said the parvo test was inconclusive.
We always do everything possible and best for any animal that come through us, based on the advice of the vets.
None of us at AnimalCare are vets, so we consult our vets and go by their recommendation.
Thank you for your advice.
