Snowie

This is the spot where Snowie was spotted.

Found besides the tyre of a parked car on the morning of 24-11-2009.

Despite being frightened, like a child lost in a busy shopping centre, he showed no trace of
aggression.

30-11-2009, 11.04am, SY updates: “Snowie ate the whole big plate of chicken shreds and baked tuna chunks, probably for the first time, he has had such a meal. When he was eating, he vocalised “me-yum, me-yum, me-yum” 🙂 ”

Bravo

This rare kitten found by Sophia along Sengkang West Ave on 31st Oct 2009 9.30 am after a previous night of heavy rain. She brought him to Dr. Kasey Tan @ Mt Pleasant Clinic (Springside) for a check. According to Dr. Tan he was few days old but in good health & shape.

He was taken in by a lady to foster but “unfortunately” that lady claimed that her children has allergy therefore couldn’t help anymore. She even tried rehoming him.

Sophia emailed MC and Caren told her to call me 🙂 so Bravo was handed to me on Saturday 14th November 2009 afternoon. The caregiver who cared for him probably did not have much experience handling him. Milk fed all came out through the nose due too much at one go. This may choke him.

Bravo is lucky in a way, he inherited the bottle of liquid synermune Colostrum from Rosy-J.

He is a very good baby like big sister Omi. No problem feeding and cleaning him. Now we feed him 4 times a day, I will feed before I leave for work, Terry will feed the 3 pm n 7 pm slots. I will give last feed at midnight. Hope he will grow up as playful and as healthy as sister Omi.

Are Calico Cats Always Female?
Can a calico cat ever be male? Yes, in rare instances. In this situation, the cat has two X chromosomes and one Y chromosome (XXY). Cats with this chromosomal configuration are usually sterile (not able to breed). This is similar to a condition in humans called Klinefelter’s syndrome, or XXY Syndrome.

Fussie seeks a good home

Background: 10-11-2009 – In the early hours of the morning, an abandoned kitten, hungry and cold, thought the warm engine compartment of a car parked in a HDB car park, was a safe place to seek refuge.

Fortunately his loud cries were heard.

SPCA was contacted and a rescue personnel arrived at the car park within an hour.
By then the engine compartment was silent. Has the kitten run off?

At 7pm, shrill kitty meowing was heard amidst the laughter of a group of kids aged about 8 to 10 years of age. A girl was carrying a kitten with a piece of cloth. They found this kitten on the tree just outside the car park. This must be the kitten hiding in the car’s engine compartment in the morning!

He was vaccinated at Pet Clinic by Dr Robin Au at about 9pm.

10-11-2009 The early morning was cold. Abandoned, lost and hungry, this tabby kitten sought the wrong “refuge” of a warm car engine in a HDB car park.

Fortunately he has a loud voice despite being just a tiny 3-month kitty and his presence was noted. He ran off by the time the SPCA rescue man came. In the evening, he was found by a group of kids on a nearby tree.

Again his loud meowing was heard by a caregiver who was searching for his at about 7pm in the evening. Would the kids just “play” with him somewhere and then discard him again? The caregiver took the kitten from the kids, fed him some food and brought him to a vet for vaccination. He is now being fostered for a good home. He is totally comfortable in the presence of human beings, a sure sign that the he grew up in a human home but unceremoniously dumped!

14-11-2009: Fussie used the litter-bin from day 1 in the fosterer’s home. He took a long time to cover his poo, hence he was name “Fussie”! From yesterday, he decided to stop “scolding” the other fostered kittens and have started to play with them!

Rosy-J passed away peacefully in her sleep 在睡梦中安然而逝。

8:18am, sms from SY

“Rosy passed away in her sleep early this morning.
Her last feed of 15ml of milk was at 3.15am.

When I got up at 7.30am, her body was already hardened.

She looked like she was in deep sleep.”

Blogger’s comments: “May Rosy-J stir more people to be aware of the plight of abandoned kittens. Please help to stop abandonment by encouraging owners to have their home cats sterilised and to inform them of the sufferings of abandoned cats and kittens such as Rosy-J and Nicha.

The “REAL” cause of Rosy-J’s death is ABANDONMENT. May the owners who abandoned Rosy-J and Nicha get to read this and regret what they have done. May they resolve never to abandon any more cats and kittens they may still have in their home and to have them all neutered.”

8:18am, sms from SY
“今天凌晨Rosy在睡梦中安详的逝世。
凌晨03时15分，她喝了最后15毫升的奶。

当我在上午七时三十分时起床时，她的身体已经僵硬了。
她好像在熟睡中。

Blogger的评论： “Rosy-J能否激起更多的人了解被人遗弃的小猫的困境。请帮助制止遗弃的小猫，鼓励主人为家猫绝育，并告知被遗弃的猫和小猫所遭受的痛苦，如Rosy-J 和 Nicha的遭遇。

“真正的”促使Rosy-J死亡的原因是被遗弃。他们的主人知道后，会否为自己所做的事而感到内疚。他们会否决心永不放弃更多的猫，为他们绝育并收留在家中。

Rescuer’s account of Rosy-J and Nicha

Just a summary about the 2 kittens..

Almost 3 weeks ago, we came across a kitten laying in front of a car at a car park.

As understood from the driver, there were 2 kittens sleeping in the rims of the car tires, when he unknowingly drove off..

One of the fall to the floor with the other was stuck in the rims upside down for about 1 1/2 hrs till few guys jacked off the wheels.

One of them (who was stuck in the rims) Nicha, is recovering well. She had a big part of her skin torn off, however the wound is healing very well now.

For her, we hope to put her up for adoption once she has recovered from her wound in maybe a weeks’ time. She has also had her first dose of vaccination & been dewormed.

For Rosy, (who was lying on the floor) the vet concluded that she has a head trauma. She was in terrible pain & her pupils were of a different size that nite.

The vet had managed to extract part of the fluid to help reduce the swelling & that helped. In the first 2 weeks, she had seizures sometime up to 4 times a day. After a seizure, she goes blind or faints for a while or sometimes it is so bad she springs out of her box.

I consulted with three vets already & they are of the opinion that I should put her to sleep. But I understand that seizures are not painful, though definitely uncomfortable but do not deserved to be put down. I would rather take her back from hospital but the vets did not think she will survive long. After each seizures, she needed life support of oxygen & injections to stop the seizure which seemed impossible to manage at home without any equipment nor experience.

有关2小猫的总结。
3个星期前，我们看到一只小猫躺在停车场的汽车前。
从司机处了解，有2小猫睡在汽车轮胎上，他不知道而开车离去。
其中之一掉在地上，另一只被困在轮辋上，颠波了约1 / 2小时，到几个人抬高车轮。
其中之一（是被困在轮辋）Nicha，恢复得很好。她的皮肤很大一部分被撕开，但伤口愈合得很好。
当她伤口痊愈，我们将为她寻找领养者。她接受第一次接种疫苗和去虫。
Rosy，（躺在地板上）兽医的结论是，她的头部受伤。她正承受巨大的痛苦和她的瞳孔有异状。
兽医设法帮助减轻肿胀。首两个星期，她的羊癫疯症一天发作多达4次。病发后，，她会失明或昏倒了一段时间，有时甚至更糟糕，她会从她的盒子弹出。
曾 征询三位兽医的意见，他们认为我应该让她安然的离去。但据我所知，羊癫疯症是会不痛的，虽然会不舒服，但不应当让她就这样的死去。我宁愿把她从医院带回 家，但售医认为她不会生存很久。每次发作后，她需要的氧气和注射药物以停止病发，没有任何设备和经验，似乎不可能在家里护理她。
