Thanks.

I seem to be losing beings that matters one by one.

This was a photo that my very first friend who had passed away on 25/08/2010 sent to me. He told me that theres a cat under his condo, and I asked him to take a photo of it cos I wanted to see how it looks like. He did and this is how the cat looks like.

Jerald Niko, take care & thank you..

Puck??

Quinn is such a timid cat. We always have to find a location to feed her because other cats are kinda mean towards her.

Just yesterday we had to runaway from the Siamese cat who was following us. It was so funny, with the 3 of us trying to runaway from the Siamese cat. In the end, she still found us. Damn! Haha!

Recently she had found a friend. This black kitty seems to enjoy tagging around Quinn. He seems to always be in a rush and looks jumpy. Source told me that he was the kitty who used to hang out at the bus stop. He recognized him by his ear. I thought he disappeared because some students were like playing with him and everything.

Maybe I should name him "Puck"? Cos I can't name him Santana. Since Santana although head of the cheerios, is a girl. But this kitty is a boy.

Stalker!

Recently I had been "stalked" by this female cat!

She will rub herself against you, and even go to the extend of jumping up to rub against you, attempting to get your attention.

Here she is waiting, and even meowing out asking for food from passerby.

It's not that i have a problem feeding her, but, I think she belongs to someone who let her wander around/ being fed by some household. A source confirmed with me that some family leave food outside their house for her and she used to belong to A but now belong to B. Its extremely confusing but... why is she still asking me for food?

Another issue is, Quinn is pretty frightened of her. And this cat thinks shes a princess, eat so slowly somemore. Hahaha! After all this, aiya.. just give her somethings to eat la.

Godric's appetite is improving

Today I went to visit Godric. I brought steamed chicken, eggs & rice for him to eat. His appetite seems good today. He ate when I visited him in the early afternoon and again during the 2nd visit at 6pm.

I went to talked to the kind people at Mdm Wong's Shelter. They have numerous positive & good comments about Godric. He is pretty small for a mongrel, he is tame, he will signaled when he wants to poop and he is a charming boy. That is to name a few. Hearing all this is really encouraging and hope this would make his chances of being adopted into a nice home higher.

They asked me to try taking a few shots of this cute little black puppy. It is so cute and it seems so affectionate! If I recall correctly its family got culled and only she managed to escape and rescued. I really don't understand why people just can't leave them alone to live their lives.

Anyway, if anyone wants to visit Godric, feel free to holler.

Affectionate ginger boy

This is the sweet ginger boy in the nearby park. I have yet to think of a name for him. This photo was taken when I first saw him but now he opened up to me and became so affectionate.

After finishing feeding him, he will follow you wherever you go. Then I will asked him to stop at the stairs, as I don't want him to wander outta the park. The white cat at the block next to the park is very mean! So he will stand at the edge of the stairs and look at you walking off. awww..

I feel so bad, as I haven't been visiting him for 2 days already. I should do my best to go find him later, so please be there ar.

Godrick just wants to explore

Godric is currently boarding at farmway because there's really no one who can take him in. I exhausted all my options and have to board him, and i don't think I can board him for long.

He is a 3-4 years male mongrel who is very thin. He was found in my camp, hiding from the heavy rain in the thorny bush. Even during distress, and me trying to get him out, he did not growl or bite. He is friendly towards humans & other animals (cats & dogs). However he will bark when strangers stare at him when walking pass. However he is still wagging his tail.

Most of the time he is in his own world, walking around, exploring the area. He doesn't respond much but will come over to lie down beside you when he explored enough.

He had been brought to the vet & he have some skin injuries. The vet prescribe some medication for it.

When I visited him just now, he didn't recognized me at all. He just wants to go out and explore more places. He behaves this way at home too, but if he have a spot like a bed or sofa, he will head there to rest and chill with you.

He is wary of cars, and being in cars. He likes chewing on towels/cloths though. Although Godric being thin, he ate but he will eat like 1/2 of the food provided. Although he did consume 300g of raw breast meat & 2 chicken wings last night.

So do consider giving him a home, or at least spread the message around for this awesome dog!

For more information about him, you can contact me at 98265564.

Godrick

Today was an "exciting" day. I saw a dog in camp which is probably either lost or had been abandon. As it was wearing a collar. It was extremely thin, probably been on the streets for a period of time. As its impossible for him to get this thin in a few days.

I decided to named him Godrick.

As I took the risk to feed him some chicken wings (raw & fried, though feeding raw wings are much better as cooked bones are more likely to splinter) which I purchase from the canteen. The nice malay auntie even donated 2 pieces to me, and she warned me that if i want to feed, i should do it in discreet as I could get into alot of trouble if i was caught. I find that rule absurd. I don't want to get into trouble for dissing the system, but.. its just fudged up.

Long story short, the aunties & uncles from the cookhouse are kinda awesome. They are so helpful & even offer chicken wings to feed the poor boy who was so thin.

When we were trying to get him onto the car, it was raining heavily. Make that extremely heavy. In the end, cos he is not coming out of the bush and he is scared of the umbrella. Since we are both already drenched, I decided to crawl as far into the thorny bush as i can to tie a rope around his collar to pull him out. it worked and we managed to got him out.

we brought him to a vet, he is obviously underweight. He have some small skin infections probably due to the fact that he have been wandering outdoors and gotten injured along the way.

From what I can observed, Godrick wants to be outdoors. In the house, he is just looking for an exit. He is calm when we brought him to the dogrun. However once he find a comfortable spot in the house (a bed), he will just chill there. Although his previous owners probably didn't even bothered to teach him the basics like "Sit".

I know most of the time, I know it will be a huge problem for me, but I just can't let them die there. The people asked me, why do i want to help it? they will know how to deal with it. True, but it is us humans who put them into such situation, if no one is gonna take responsible, the poor boy is gonna die. You have put up so many values yet when the time comes, I don't see it being practiced. Just because its a dog, its life is of no value? Just because its a dog it doesn't required any help when its lying in the rain, in the puddle, shivering with nothing but skin & bones?

they keep asking me what if he bites me? I just reply I'm ok with it, it's just his way of defending himself. He shouldn't be blame, its just his instinct. But my trust in him didn't fail me, cos this boy didn't even hurt me. I have so much to rant on, but I should leave for another day.

If you don't respect my values, then don't expect me to respect yours.

Discovery..

I saw Girtal clone's kittens yesterday night. Sadly 1 of them had died, I have no idea what's the actual cause of death. Ran over by a car? Attacked by another cat?

She was so tiny. The remaining kittens (2 black, 1 ginger) location are unknown now. Girtal clone probably moved them.

I never felt like such a dumbass in my entire life till now. As I wanted to bring the entire family home but I keep pondering over it. I know I want to get Girtal clone sterilized and the kittens adopted while being safe from the cars & what not. I went down later at 12+. Obviously they were all gone. So hoping that they have been moved to a safer location than under a car.

From what i remembered of the kittens, 2 are completely black. The ginger one looked like Gladius. The markings on its body isn't that obvious.

Anyway, why do the uncle keep calling the brothers, "Yellow"? They looked more orange to me...

Quinn~

I guess people are wondering who Quinn is. The calico cat who will wait for me at the opposite block at 8pm+.

She is so evil, trying to trip me all the time. Haha! nah.. cos she have this habit of zig zagging when we are heading to the spot that i always feed her. She eats alot! She was like the first cat who munch and finished the dry food that was served.

I don't know why I named her Quinn, but I find the actress really pretty, maybe thats why? It kinda suits the cat anyway.

Just now, while she was eating 2 other cats (not from my block) came and chase her off.. Poor thing ran away so I tailed her to feed her behind another block. 1 of the male cat that chase her was sterilized though, cos his ear seems to be tipped. I hope that stop being mean and leave Quinn ALONE!

Add 1 more to the list

I got a sms from an auntie in Bedok North. She said that she saw a cat dead probably beaten up as it was bleeding in the head and the eyes. She said that was a new cat probably abandon a few days ago and it was sterilized. The auntie said tts probably an easy victim due to its trusting nature. Coming up to people for affection when its called.

When i arrived there, I couldn't locate the body only to discover that someone had already cleared the body. I did asked the auntie to take photos and keep an eye on the body. Guess, it didn't work out as they have many other cats to feed.

I don't want to jump into conclusion but from their description, location & time of discovery the body (3:30pm+), the cat was probably kicked and died from the injury? Cos it is broad daylight & the area have many human traffic so he/she couldn't have made any big movement like squatting/bending to attack the cat.

The auntie said they called the Police, but the police referred them to SPCA which asked them to contact NEA. They really don't know who to get help from, I don't too as I'm only recently experiencing all this situation as well. I gave their contacts to the volunteer at Cat Welfare Society but the aunties said they haven't been contacted regarding the issues.. I really hope that something could be done to ensure the safety of the cats in the area.

So many cats and they are sterilized!

I went to Bedok North yesterday after a friend of mine told me that 5 kittens & cats (sterilized ones too) have been missing. A malay auntie told her about it.

When i arrived there, I was so overwhelmed by the cats there! Everywhere you turn, theres at least 2 of them chilling. Almost all of them are sterilized! I was so thrilled & excited and damn my dslr's batteries for being flat! I would had loved to photograph every single one of them! Cos i hardly see cats in my area which are not hiding or even exist.

The first cat to come up to me, rubbing itself and took a few bite outta the dry food i brought.

This cat is so pretty! Look at its paw, it has the same "ring" marking on its paw just like Gauche.

I saw the malay auntie which my friend told me about. She told me so much about the issue that's been happening over the years when she stayed here and after she moved. She knows every single cats in the area and the ones missing she remembers all their colors.

She told me that the cats had been poisoned, "hammered", superglue-ed in the face & butt (any lady told me that, 1 cat have to put to sleep because of this). People dumping garbage and water from their apartment when the auntie is feeding the cats & at the cats. A man who wait for her to finish feeding & then come & bully the cats. She mentioned that she quarreled with alot of the people over the years yet the amount of cats being taken away, killed and abused are still going on.

She said people are also purposely running down cats with their vehicles. She called me shortly after and told me that she discovered the corpse of a cat. She was calling them for their dinner but they didn't appear and she saw the body.

She said this is already the 3rd cat. Helped her to wrap up the body & its so sad to see her carrying the cat in the plastic bag to look for a place to dispose it. As its around 8+ so she can't go to the place where she normally bury the dead cats.

Another malay couple was feeding an army of cats also told me alot of their experiences. 1 was, a kitten taken & thrown out of the flat. Fat Male & sterilized cats were claim to be pregnant thus being culled. I hope the people from Cat Welfare Society can help them.

I was really surprise that a place with so many cats that this type of things are going on... hai...

Don't shoot with a gun, shoot with a camera.

So my schedule for the past few days were extremely messed up, as I find myself tired & slept much earlier than I usually do. This will be a post of some shots me & jayson took yesterday.

Taken by my youngest brother, Jayson.

I never seen this cat before when I was walking home. It's kinda fierce and huge.

I thought that this shot taken by Jayson is good. I like the composition & mood. It's as though the cat is thinking (well, its actually sleeping).

Taken by jayson.

The black kitten that I always see at the same area around the park. He is tolerant towards humans & allow kids to pat him. He will come up to you, rubbing himself all over you.

Of cos the kitties under my block who are the most awesome "stray" cats I've ever seen!

Sid is an extremely affectionate kitten. He will follow you everywhere and keep meowing for you when he can't see you. He won't let me go home and keep rubbing himself all over me.

Later at night, because I have to feed the "jumpy" calico cat across my block, I went down. There Sid is, lying there and when he spotted me, BOOM, he was right beside me. Hahaha! I never feel alone anymore when I'm downstairs.

This boy is eating alot! He is just eating & signaling you for more. Yet when you want to pat him, he swipe your hand and make a run for it!

I told Jayson you can't take a picture of him cos there's a net. I guess he took it anyway thus explaining the veil of green in the photo.

Girtal clone, I refuse to call her Nenek (however you spell it). She is the mother of Gauche & his brothers. I tailed her and I think I found where she is housing her kittens (if there is any).

I'm not sure what is the brothers' current age but I'm guessing round 4-5months. I'm gonna try my luck once again to get the Sterilizing voucher.

I'm not gonna go to the counselor after the next session. She bloody told me something along the lines of, "you already know that the kitten will die anyday so how can you use that as a conclusion for your feeling that something bad will happen?"

Anyway, I don't want to make the post here too personal but, f*ck you lady, i already told her I know something bad will happen to me during this period of my life. she said i'm being pessimistic & jumping into conclusion. Yea right, see what happened? Now you are saying cos its unwell to begin with. But ain't i trying to be positive & not jumping into conclusion by thinking it will live? Yea, i'm being contradicting to whatever i say because I like f*cking around with you!

Everyone have a nice day.
