Salam dan Selamat Sejahtera,
Minggu
lepas, kami menerima 1 email yang agak mencemaskan dari Ms. C. Beliau
meminta bantuan SCRATCH untuk mencarikan tuan baru bagi 16 ekor kucing
Domestic Long Haired (DLH) yang ditinggalkan housemate nya dan
tidak muncul2 setelah pulang ke kampung pada bulan Februari yang lepas. Rumah sewa Ms. C mesti
dikosongkan pada 16 Sept dan sekiranya tidak ada adopter utk kesemua
kucing2 ini, dia bercadang untuk Put To Sleep (PTS) kesemua kucing2
tersebut.
Last week we received an emergency e-mail form Ms C. She asked a help from SCRACTH to re-home sixteen Domestic Long Haired cats, all of which were abandoned by the previous owner. The previous owner who is Ms. C's ex-housemate went back to her hometown and never appeared since last February. Ms. C is currently renting a house and unfortunately the landlord had given a short notice for her to vacate the house. Should these cats fail to find adopters, she has no choice other than to put them to sleep. Ms C was so depressed struggling with her moral dilemma.

Setelah perbincangan dibuat dengan committee
SCRATCH, kami bersetuju untuk membawa kesemua 16 ekor kucing2 tersebut
ke event di Putrajaya pada Sabtu & Ahad (14 & 15 Sept 2013) lepas untuk dicarikan
fosterer.
After having a thorough meeting assessing all the potential risks and options, SCRATCH committee members agreed to bring all these sixteen cats to the Putrajaya International Cat Show (14 & 15 of Sept 2013). Serious fosterers were sought out and these kind human beings were all interviewed before taking the cat(s) home.
Tibanya 16 ekor kucing di Putrajaya pada Sabtu lepas,
kami menjadi sedih dan sebak. Keadaan mereka tidak terurus. Bulu mereka
berbau, kotor dan comot. Badan mereka kurus seperti tidak cukup makan &
dehydrated. Bau mereka sangat busuk sepertinya mereka sudah bergelumang
dengan najis sendiri. Ada seekor yg buta, seekor lagi mengalami sakit batu karang dan baru
discharge dari vet tetapi tidak boleh dibedah atas sebab2 tertentu.
Kesemua mereka sangat takut dan gelisah mungkin kerana tidak pernah
keluar dari rumah dan tidak pernah bertemu dengan orang asing. Mata
mereka menceritakan 1001 kesedihan. Kami terdiam bila melihat keadaan
mereka. Tidak ada kata2 yang mampu diluahkan pada waktu itu. Tapi kami
kena kuat & tabah bagi memastikan mereka dapat peluang kedua untuk
menikmati hidup seperti kucing2 lain.
These furbabies arrived at the hall on last Saturday and all of us, the volunteers, were overwhelmed with sorrow upon looking at their conditions. They seemed like never been groomed, the fur entangled and matted, dirty, infested with fleas, ticks and mites. Some of them were skin and bones. The pungent stinking smell suggested that, they might not have proper litter boxes. One of the cats is one-eyed blind and the other one is suspected having a kidney problem. The latter cannot be operated because an extensive check-up must be made in order to ensure the cat has no underlying diseases before going for any surgery. All of them generally were very frighten, scared of people and we understood that. All these while there were enclosed with the house's walls, never had an interaction with the outside world and coming out from the enclosure all of sudden really freaked them out. Their eyes told us 1001 stories, sad ones. We were speechless looking at their conditions. No words could describe how these majestic creature could come to this condition. However we know, as volunteers, we have to be strong so that these babies will get a second chance to live and better homes just like other pets.

| Ketika di booth SCRATCH.. |
Pencarian fosterer giat
dijalankan. Ada yang ingin mengambil kucing-kucing ini kerana ingin di kahwinkan dengan kucing yang sedia ada dirumah, ada yang mampu menjadi fosterer tapi tidak menyokong prosedur pengembirian, tak kurang juga yang berkeras dan bermasam muka kerana permohonannya ditolak kerana tidak sesuai dan tidak selaras dengan tujuan SCRATCH/KTAJ. Harus difahami kami ingin mencari yang terbaik untuk kucing-kucing ini..cukupla trauma dan kesengsaraan yang mereka lalui.
The searching for fosterers was done extensively and tirelessly. There were irresponsible people who insisted to take up these cats for breeding purposes. Some could be good fosterers but they do not support the idea of neutering the pets, and nonetheless there were hard headed people who made faces when their applications to be fosterers were turned down. We need the public to support our mission and vision and the public needs to understand we tried our best to find good homes for these cats. We believe these babies had been traumatized and gone through enough hardships.
Setelah bertalu2 soalan dikemukakan dalam sesi interview,
hanya fosterer yang layak sahaja diberikan kepercayaan untuk menjaga
mereka sehingga mereka sihat & dimandulkan. Alhamdulillah berkat
kesabaran dan doa semua, kesemua 16 ekor telah berjaya mendapatkan
fosterer masing2. Berita terkini..kebanyakkan dari kucing-kucing ini sudah tidak murung lagi, sudah mahu utk makan dan bermain. Ini satu petanda baik, Alhamdulillah. Kini kami hanya menunggu masa yg sesuai utk menghantar kucing2 ini utk dikembirikan sebelum ia dibuka semula untuk memcari adopter. Kucing yang ingin di kembirikan mesti berada dalam keadaan sihat dan fit untuk mengelakkan sebarang komplikasi yg tidak diingini.
Questions after questions bombarded to the the potential fosterers, the qualified ones were selected and given the trust to take care of these cats until their health are restored and then will go for neutering procedure. Alhamdulillah, with passion and patient we managed to find the fosterers for all of the cats. The latest update we received from our respective fosterers, all of the cats are now no longer depressed. Some of them even have started playing and eating. This is really a good sign and we will wait for the right time for the cats to be neutered and go to forever good homes. Depressed cats and/or cats with poor health conditions are not fit to undergo any surgery and because of that we need to wait a bit longer until these cats are settled and healthy again.
