Happy birthday in heaven, Caviar! Today you crossed the rainbow bridge just in time for your celebration, you must've really missed your sister - Crumpet. You've been so selfless, guarding your brother Truffle bear and being your Mama Midnight's baby boy. I'm sure she sensed that there was something wrong with you, it was too late when we found out that you were diabetic, your body already gave up on you once they started your insulin. Sorry, love.

No more pain. Run free baby Cavi. πŸˆπŸ’›πŸŒˆ

Hellooo everyone!! It's been a minute to emotionally recharge, although not fully recovered mentally, I have to place my energy into doing productive things for the shelter. The Cat Crib babies have been okay, just a few common cold bumps that have already been treated. Thank God.

I'd like to introduce you to Churchill, one of our recent rescues, who is very emaciated. He was rescued in Magalang, Pampanga on a very hot day. His skin is so dry due to lack of finding clean water, I suppose. His blood chem is normal while his cbc shows signs of an infection. Nothing much to worry about because he is on iv fluids, has a hearty appetite, and he has also been dewormed.

The tabby cat is Caviar, who was recently diagnosed with diabetes, his blood chem showed elevated creatinine and urea levels which suggest a reduced function in the kidneys and liver. He is now on insulin and iv fluids because he is really weak as of the moment due to sudden spikes of glucose levels, in addition, he is being forced fed but his body cannot intake much food. He is one of mama's babies at home.

We've been saving up to pay for our debts at the vet clinic, these two are cases that we cannot ignore, thus it is necessary for them to stay confined for at least a week until they are in their best shape.

August 2021 - February 24, 2025

After 6 months of struggle, healing, and treatment - came the decision I did not expect to make. We had to put Subway to sleep. To put into easier words, we exhausted all approaches from different types of medication to a procedure he can never be deemed fit enough for. From close monitoring by bringing him to my dorm for the weekdays to confinements as maintenance every weekends or longer than that when needed. To investing in food he likes, to making efforts so he could get enough calorie and medication intake, to ensuring he is comfortable even when his odds are against him.

With every effort done, there was a temporary relief, but nothing truly sufficed. He had a hearty appetite and drank a lot of water, yet he would lose weight and was dehydrated. His teeth were all rotten. He could not reach high places anymore. No matter the deed, his health was already deteriorating. He would become lethargic but went back to normal after fluids, but this time, it was different. Within the 9 days of his last confinement, he lost weight and could not walk straight anymore. I opened his cage and as he recognized my voice, he mustered enough strength to walk towards me and lay his head on my feet.

It hit me hard, realizing that his sustenance was no longer in my hands. I knew what to do, amidst the confusion of why his state was really bad. It was a terrible feeling, to be put on the spot knowing that I failed him. I wanted someone to tell me that it was time to let go, and I am more than grateful to hear a close friend say what I needed to hear and for our dear veterinarian validating it also. I am thankful our last moment shared together was him laying on my lap, seeing him get his first and last taste of chocolate (just a custom before they are laid to rest), and kissing his face until his heart stopped beating.

How peaceful it was for the both of us to sleep in the same bed, how peaceful it was for me to be with him everyday, but most importantly - how peaceful it was for him not to feel pain anymore.

My Subway, I hope you understood that every decision I made was for your best interest. I am sorry for all my shortcomings. I love you so much and I hate that you aren't here anymore. If there is one thing I am sure of, that was the last and best gift I could have done for you. Thank you for showing me your kindness, gentle heart, and empathy as well. Run free, Subway. πŸ’›

Parsley πŸˆπŸ‘ΌπŸŒˆ
November 12, 2024 - February 7, 2025

Parsley passed away on February 7 which marked the 14th day of her confinement. In the 2 weeks she was supposed to be recovering, she ultimately got worse even under such good care. That is the reality of a virus. It has no cure, only maintenance. I was not able to visit her during her last days of struggle, and I was not able to prepare her burial; fortunately the clinic was so good to us to understand my absence so they did it perfectly. Nevertheless, I did a goodbye visit last sunday, I cleaned her eye discharge and mucus as I cupped her face and told her that it was okay to let go if surviving was already such a pain for her. It was already expected, and crying for her as we bonded one last time saves one from a total meltdown. Although receiving the news does not make the heartache any lighter. It will never be easier for me, but I am sure it will always be harder to look away from distress. The world was already curated harder for them.

I do not have recent photos of when she was already weak, because I couldn't take them. Thanks for reading my post, and sit down with me as we reminisce this photo of when we brought her home just right after she brushed my leg. I remember it was rush hour, it was really hard to find a tricycle while holding an anxious adult cat. It was a short but good time. No more pain, thank you for everything. πŸ’›

Quick Cat Crib update!!!! 🐱

Last weekend we were very busy running errands for these cats below but asides that, the cats at the shelter are all okay:

🌱 Parsley - not a recent photo but today marks the 12th day of her confinement. She has been in a weak state, lethargic and she is very congested. Her prognosis is bad, but she is still fighting hard with the little strength she still has.

🍊 Mandarin - one of our external cats outside our house, he likes to play guard and hangs around in our balcony and garage. We noticed that he had an enlarged abdomen for a few weeks already so we decided to get an ultrasound just in case it was a fluid build-up, it turns out there was a blockage so he was immediately put on a catheter. He's been confined since sunday, and he is finally peeing properly and had regained his appetite today.

πŸ₯ͺ Subway and Akoya - They are my dorm cats for this week. Subway's condition is very delicate as his gingivitis is severe and he is also anemic, he is still not in good shape for his dental operation. He is on a soft diet. While Akoya is being treated for a common cold. I only let her out when she needs a break from her cage and to use the litterbox.

🎸 Hana - She is back at the shelter. She fully recovered from her conjunctivitis and cold after 2 weeks of medication.

πŸ₯‚ Caviar (no photo) - He also recovered from his cold, had a recent CBC with good results, but placed on Antacid medication because he has been throwing up acid.

With the rising costs of vet bills (past and ongoing), food, and medication. Any amount to show your support for our cause would mean a lot to us, especially to our rescued cats.

Remember Parsley? We had her confined since friday (January 24, 2025) due to sudden bloody stool. She was immediately brought to the vet and placed on IV fluids and currently being treated for a viral infection. She is very lethargic, and anemic, with a high infection rate. We hope it is not another case of parvo because she still does not have much appetite.

We are sorry for the consecutive sad posts, but we do have a lot of happy stories to share as well. The costs of their vettings are high, and we ought to share the conditions of our rescued cats. If you have some change to spare, any amount means a lot to us.

Rest assured even with our limited posts, we work hard to maintain them and keep them in good health, yet at times; unfortunate cases like this still occur regardless of the measures we take. We hope you understand. πŸ™πŸ»

Can you help Turrones? He was a stray cat that entered our garage yesterday in which he was immediately brought to the vet clinic for a check-up, CBC, and IV fluids. He is severely anemic and emaciated, he is now on oxygen and is in a very critical state because he may need a blood transfusion if ever. It already seems hopeless, but for all the struggles he had been through (the sad norm for strays), he deserves this fighting chance.

Any amount is greatly appreciated. Please label 'Cat Crib'.

He has no name because we have not rescued him yet. But he is called 'Bungal'. 🦷
TW: Animal cruelty

This was a case on the same day of New year's eve, we were on the way home from the shelter, and we had a cage just in case there would be an emergency rescue due to the impact of the fireworks later that evening. This is a cat we see regularly near a sari-sari store, evidently a stray since he is not let inside their house. But I remember this cat from a few years back, when he was healthier, younger, and loved. I even remember they had a dog with the same pattern, and they were both best friends, but it passed away from an untreated illness. I used to feed him when the owner also stopped caring for it.

The trike drivers mentioned to me that there would be many fireworks on that same street, and I was heavily concerned about this cat knowing that it would not have any home to seek refuge in. I asked the owner if I could take in the cat, yet she refused. I even offered to leave the cage so she could put the cat inside, but she stopped listening to me. Instead, she proceeded to tell me very casually how they had removed the cat's teeth in hopes that it would finally d!e, but failed, they stopped trying to k!ll it and rather withheld meals because the cat was not the same anymore or in their exact words "pinabayaan na niya sarili niya, di na niya nililinis sarili niya tsaka di na siya makakain nang maayos, pero nagagamit ko pa yan para sa mga daga dito sa tindahan". After further persuasion, I told her the cat was sick (she would not even believe it) and I would return it the day after, in which she eventually agreed to.

'Bungal' can not eat well, he can only handle wet food, his lower jaw is also on the side which may be a result of the trauma he underwent. He really needs to have a check-up as soon as possible.

We refuse to accept that 'Bungal' will live the rest of his life like this, so we are navigating our way to save him in the next months. Before judgement spurs, we hope you understand that there are cruel and difficult owners, and we also need resources to save this cat. We hope for your understanding and the courage to speak up in situations such as this. This is not the end to his story.

Happy New Year! 🐱✨πŸ₯‚
Here's to more possibilities and change we can offer to this world... all we want to say is thank you for standing by us, our old and new supporters. May this year bring prosperity towards the goodness of our cause and animal welfare as a whole. As a small shelter we will slowly pave our way into becoming a SEC-registered NGO as a sanctuary all in God's timing; but for now, here's to all the miniscule yet beautiful things, mundane but essential chores, and all the milestones for our Cat Crib 😁⭐

Introducing 'Katutubo', one of our advocacies since 2020, we had a separate page for this annual gift-giving project and soup kitchen called 'Makulay ang Buhay' but we decided to make this fulfilling event a category directly under our name instead with a more personalized touch.

On the left is Lola Corazon who is very dear to our hearts, we are very grateful for her compassion towards us as she loves bringing literal fruits of her hard work like ginger, taro, ube, turmeric etc. Ever since, she stands as a grandmother to me from afar. It started with her as I got to know the other members of her beloved family. We are all in awe of their tribe's generosity, because even when they have close to nothing, they still offer their harvests to ensure that we are eating healthily just because it is their own way of showing love and gratitude. With that said, I can't fully fathom how much this project truly means to me.

Katutubo is dedicated to providing our dear aetas comfort and relief goods, not just during christmas season but a consistent project that is available all throughout the year whenever they need help. They are the epitome of selflessness, and I hope that all of us can learn that important attribute. It costs nothing to be kind.

Today, they were each given the first batch of goodies consisting of rice, canned goods, instant noodles, biscuits, coffee, and milk. I know it is only a small help, but in the future, I know we can definitely do more for them. Please help us, help them. We are always open for donations. πŸ’›
