I'm alive and potential adopters for luckytoes midnight

hi all! i know i've been totally MIA for a while but I have been receiving your emails and kind comments. i want to thank everyone for their support and encouragement! i haven't managed to sort out any of my dilemmas yet but my overall mood has improved a lot and i feel very much alive again. i'm ready to join the world and fix things. i'm single, broke, unemployed, and almost homeless but i'm in a good mood today so its all good. i will sort this shit out.

i received many phone calls today from people interested in finding out more about luckytoes midnight. from the bunch, two potential adopters are coming to my home tomorrow to meet her. this is all thanks to Ellen from the Katz and Other Tales blog. Ellen writes the Katz Tales column in The Star newspaper and today she featured luckytoes midnight in the "Adopt Me" box. Katz Tales is in the Weekender section of the paper. Make sure you check it out. wish us luck with the potential adopters! tomorrow could be the day that luckytoes finally finds a permanent home!
Below are some photos of Luckytoes and Tutti Frutti i took a couple of weeks ago during SPCA Selangor's adoption drive at Bangsar Shopping Center. Tutti Frutti was adopted that day.

Tutti Frutti was adopted and just checking in..

hey.. i know i've sorta been MIA lately.. i've got some personal drama going on and its non-animal welfare related so i'd rather not blog about it but its all i can think about at the moment so...... well i decided to avoid blogging altogether. anyways i wanted to report that Tutti Frutti did get adopted at last weekend's adoption drive. He was adopted on Sunday, the second day of the drive. So last weekend, i had two adoptions including Santo!! that's great and i wish them well in their new permanent homes. Luckytoes Midnight is still with me but a very nice lady who wrote about molly & conan for the Star newspaper last year is going to feature Luckytoes in an upcoming 'adopt me' section of the paper. let's hope we get some potential adopters from that..

SPCA Selangor Adoption Drive, May 22-23

Hello everyone,
Just a quick post to remind everyone that SPCA Selangor will have their adoption drive this weekend May 22-23 at Bangsar Shopping Center. We'll be there from 10am to 6pm both days. Please drop by and show your support, just say hi, adopt, or make a donation. To raise funds we've also got lots of SPCA merchandise for sale. They make great gifts!

There will be dogs and cats of all ages all needing homes so please spread the word and encourage your friends to adopt from a shelter instead of breed and buy from a petstore. My foster kittens Santo, Tutti Frutti, and Luckytoes Midnight will be there thanks to my dear friend Nic who brought them for their vaccinations yesterday. They are adoption drive ready and looking for permanent, loving homes.

Remember, don't breed and buy while shelter animals die. Hope to see some familiar faces tomorrow!

Photos of Santo and Tutti Frutti

Hi everyone!! Finally, some photos of Santo and Tutti Frutti. They're pretty hard to take pictures of.. they're squirmy little suckers they are. Santo and Tutti Frutti are super affectionate and attention seeking now. They can't stand to be alone and crave human contact and attention. They stand at my bedroom door and meow. They cry. They follow me around. Cute little shits. It's nice to be fostering kittens that like me.. very different from Runty & Stubbs. Santo and Tutti seem to see me as a mother figure.


Tutti Frutti aka Smudge. She has to be held down for photos most of the time. She keeps trying to sniff me and sit on my lap.


Santo. A pretty boy. Sitting on my lap. He always has eye poop. He's gained a lot weight and looks great now!



Tutti Frutti is really really thin but i think after some weight gain she'll be gorgeous! i love her facial smudge.















Santo and Tutti are with my friend Nic tonight. She works at SPCA so she'll bring them with her to the shelter tomorrow morning to see the shelter vet coz i'm super broke right now. They'll get their shots from Dr P tomorrow and then I'll pick them up from Nic tomorrow night after work. I hope i can bring them for this weekend's adoption drive at bangsar shopping center!!!

New Foster Kitten - Tutti Frutti

hello everyone. thank you for all the kind words i have been receiving about dear little socks. i really hope she is in a better place now. i know some are wondering what happens here in cases of animal cruelty.. well honestly, not much. people can report cases of cruelty to SPCA Selangor but there is little that SPCA can do. SPCA inspectors will go and investigate and gather whatever evidence they can, but they can't prosecute or even seize an animal living in a bad situation without permission and accompaniment from the Department of Veterinary Services (DVS). DVS is a government body and useless. Even with evidence gathered by SPCA inspectorate, including photos and once even a confession and the bodies of abused animals, DVS has failed to take action. they always say there isn't enough evidence to prosecute. they're lazy and don't give a flying fuck about animal welfare at all. word is, they haven't prosecuted a single cruelty case for SPCA in years.

anyway.. i also have a bit of news. i've got yet another foster kitten, tutti frutti. i found this one while driving home from SPCA's adoption drive in bangsar shopping center today. she's about 3 and a half to 4 months old.. white with small black patches. she's got some black smudges on her face and her long skinny tail is black with a white tip. actually she was part of a litter of 4 but i don't know if i'll be able to get her siblings. she was eating food left on the sidewalk with her 3 siblings. they all dashed off as i approached, but tutti frutti was too slow so i grabbed her and stuffed her into a carrier. she was a little freaked at first but after a couple of hours she was fine. she's very sweet and affectionate with a tiny little voice. i'll bring her to the vet tomorrow and hopefully she and santo will be totally ready for adoption soon. i've got new photos of santo to upload and i've got to take some photos of tutti but i'll do all that tomorrow. its 1am now and i've got to wake up at the buttcrack of dawn for work.

tutti frutti got her name because 2 of the chicas from SPCA and i ate 60 ringgit worth of tutti frutti frozen yogurt and toppings today. hell yeahhhhhh baby.. it was gooooooood..
