• Sam’s deadly scratch

    Feeling sorry for Samantha, I let her out of the cage so that she doesn’t have to be confined and stressed out by it. Little did I know how difficult it would be to catch her again. It was madness! It ended up with me having caught her, put on the soft e-collar which she…

  • Kai achieves a first (raw food on his own)!

    I thought Kai had become slow in everything, but no. Just now, he achieved a first – he ate raw meat on his own! Since yesterday, I had been giving the kittens very small amounts of minced chicken breast meat. I do it by placing the small amount into their mouths. Both Akira and Indra…

  • Please come out, Mr Golden Sun!

    There’s no sun right now. I wish there were so that Samantha can have a sunbath. I texted with the vet just now and she says Samantha’s wounds look more extensive today. Pilling was quite the disaster too. The vet asks if I would consider hospitalising Samantha so that she can be monitored by them.…

  • A quick update on the Cyberjaya Neutering Project

    Ms Ong and the other feeder are the only two persons trying to get the dogs to the vet’s for neutering. The other feeders are not keen to neuter the dogs; they only want to feed. They also feed by just leaving food and going away before the dogs come out, hence, there is hardly…

  • The kitties in the kitchen

    I woke up at 3am to check on the kittens. If they had been awake, I would have fed them, but they weren’t. So I decided to let them sleep. Riley (who sleeps right beside me) also followed me into the kitchen and she decided to jump in and stay with them. Here they are…

  • Samantha’s updates

    Samantha had been very stressed in the cage. Granted, she had never been caged before all her life, assuming she had grown up on the street, that is. After we tricked her into the house on 27th January, she was always upstairs in the big bedroom, free to move around. And I think she did…

  • Updates from Amy in Kota Bharu (food aid recipient)

    Amy sent these photos on the very day and the next after receiving our food aid. On the Saturday when the food arrived at her workplace, she did not have a car and had gone to work on a motorbike, so she carried whatever she could and fed cats along the way home. Amy says…

  • The godmother or the godsister?

    Is little Riley the godmother of the kittens or is she the godsister? If Riley is Samantha’s daughter, then she is the big sister of the kittens! Just as Smurfy is the big brother of the Monsters. We will never know. But Riley is such a sweet and caring cat.

  • The kittens visit Samantha and the long incubation period of the Cryptococcus

    I’ve been reading up on cryptococcosis and it is not zoonotic nor does it transmit from cat to cat or to other animals too. If a Cryptococcus species penetrates a cat’s central nervous system or affects multiple organs, then cryptococcosis can be fatal. Is cryptococcosis in cats contagious? No, cats cannot transmit cryptococcosis to other cats.…

  • Samantha and the kittens this evening

    It really breaks my heart that I have to separate Samantha from her kittens. But we do not know what disease Samantha has which has manifested as lesions around her nose. So to keep the kittens safe, I have to separate them.  This is after the skin scraping done by the vet to determine what…

  • Cryptococcosis in cats

    Source: https://www.petmd.com/cat/conditions/infectious-parasitic/c_ct_cryptococcosis This reference says it is NOT zoonotic (cannot be transmitted to humans) – please see more below (scroll all the way down). But humans can get it if they inhale the spores from the environment. What is Cryptococcosis in Cats? Cryptococcosis is a type of fungal infection that occurs when a cat inhales spores…

  • Samantha has lesions around her nose – Cryptococcosis?

    I noticed just a spot on Samantha’s face two days ago. I thought it was nothing, so I left it. Yesterday morning, there were suddenly three spots. But it still did not look serious. I thought she might have rubbed her nose onto the security window screen. But by evening, at around 5.30pm (the vet…
