...and just in time! Penny found another small kitten a few days ago but the rest have been adopted so she gave me the go-ahead to bring in the 5 kittens.

Didn't see the two from the coffee shop the day before... only their mother was around. Then yesterday night finally found them curled up at the kerb of the car park... very pittyful!  The orange-white one looks a bit dull and poor appetite....probably getting sick. Brought them to Penny and then went back for the 3 black-and -white kittens at the construction site.

Will wait a week or two  for the milk to dry up and then get the two mothers sterilised.

The lady from Shanghai called me at midnight yesterday. She had found a very sick and skinny cat in Area 2. Some problem with the jaws...unable to eat. She suspects abuse. I went down with my carrier and while we waited for the taxi she asked again about the 4 missing cats at Blk *21... and sadly shakes her head. 

I think she had stayed with the sick cat for 3 hours before she met the Auntie who gave her my number, because she didn't know any vet and didn't have a carrier. The Shanghai Lady hardly speaks any English but somehow we manage to communicate. ... She offered to pay for all the medical expenses for this Singapore stray cat... no worries about the midnight charges.

The cat was an older cat and in such bad shape that the vet advised to put him to sleep. He is not suffering anymore now but I feel sad to think how long he had been wandering around unable to eat until finally a Lady from Shanghai cared enough to bring him to the vet...

She even arranged with me to follow up and discharge him in case he was still hospitalized when she returns to Shanghai on Tuesday...
