DBKL Came to My Apartment
Ruth,I'm just like you guys.Average middle income earner. If I have all the money in the world,the first thing I do is to buy hundred hectare of lands for cat nursery. But in reality, I don't have money
The feral cats don't have kitten.I have spay all of them.Now left 3 male cats.Very susah to catch them. But I might borrow my friend's badminton net to trap them. I do it in stages because i don't have much $$$$. I do thing one at the time.
One stranger who has been following our thread without become a member called me this morning with 1 temporary solution. I think her idea is brilliant. I'll update here once everything going on smoothly as per our plan.
Simple,mmg betul apa u cakap.I tak nafikan. Tetapi jiran2 I ni mmg bagus. Durang tlg I masa kucing terperangkap kat lift,kucing jatuh atas bumbung.Byk perkara perkara yg durang buat yg tak suspect durang yg komplen. Masa I gi maintenance office,budak kat office tu kata jiran sebelah I yg baru tu komplen.

Anyway, whatever it is, please do not send them to 'their centre in Setapak'. yeah, it's a one way journey. how i wish i can help u, but my no. has escalated to (oops, better not mention here). recently, i've taken in 3 families and many individuals. one is pregnant. i'm also fostering 2 kittens for Ashley, so my place is overflowing. puppies, too. i'm also having many urinary cases because of food, so it's a case of 'the spirit is willing, but the 'space and energy' is weak'. i'm putting up their pics for adoption soon.
One suggestion for u. Why don't u open a pet shop? Then those cats become ur boarding cats. That was one of the reasons we opened a pet shop. Just get a shop lot and start with boarding services first. those feral cats, do they have 'anak'? we always use the 'anak' to trap the mother.
another suggestion for u. why don't u approach Sabrina of FFF? she may be able to help. try it. for sure, it won't be 'they go in and never come out'. try her.

Re: DBKL Came to My Apartment
June, my sympathy to u.. I really hope that i will not be in the same shoe as i am the only one in this community that have many cats and actually i have started doing the same thing as you are.. I have attracted few feral cats here by giving them food every morning.. Even the security guards knew this. At this very moment I kind of agree t.ruth response but there are pros and cons.. I will observe this thread and will see from there ..

Clement, in many instances it is not our relationship with the neighbours at all. Some do have civil relationships (ie. no quarrels, got polite "Hi" and "How are you?", "Good morning", "Go market ah? What you buy?" ... but the truth is there are some people on this earth that simply cannot stand to see ANY cats or dogs even outside their gates (many are dog owners themselves, but I guess people like that own dogs for status symbol or must get a dog to bring some luck because it is the year of the dog, etc. etc).
They simply think that animals (except their dog) are nuisance to their environment and the whole world only belong to humans and insist on a nice, neat sterile neighbourhood free of any 4-legged animals.
That is why the modern non-kill SPCAs overseas had to do a lot of adult community awareness education programs on anti-cruelty towards animals in order to educate the community that animals are life forms of God's wonderful creation and they do have the right to live alongside humans in the community and it is humane to be compassionate towards them.
Having colonies of managed neutered and vaccinated strays which will not contribute to the strays population multiplication and they will have less likelihood of being sick with a myriad of diseases but will be healthier animals. But without the adult community awareness education program, TNR will fail. It has to be a 2-pronged action for it to be effective. Otherwise the local councils will catch all neutered as well as unneutered animals and kill them and all money and efforts will be wasted and you are back to square one.

Re: DBKL Came to My Apartment
June,
All I can say is that I am sorry to hear that this is happening to a good person who's only going out of her way to help our animal friends.
I am also at a loss on what to tell you... Everything seems to be stacked up against animals in this world.
I have a couple neighbors who also called the police on us before because we have 3 rottweillers...
Some people are just nasty and you just can't talk sense to them.

DBKL Came to My Apartment
Tks Ezer.You are right.why are they against animal?? What have they done to deserve this?? Why don't they themselves go to the jungle and live by themselves?? See weather the animal in the jungle accept them or not.
Ezer, I have tons of PM and phone calls from forumer friends and strangers who happened to be rescuer but non member of this forum. Now, I have some idea what to do.The only matter is to buy time from DBKL.That is my husband's job. I think he can handle that from the way he smooth talk to them last nite I have no patient with govt staff.
In the meantime,if you guys want to join me doing some "naughty things",you guys are welcome The problem is,we will start at 3am.
P/S Ezer, my neighbour in KK got 2 rotties. Aiyoh!! they let the dogs out without supervision,never train them.The dogs started to terrorizing the neighbourhood.My sister's former classmate was the latest victim Luckily she still alive.Stupid owner.My mum and sister went to make police report against the owner.

Re: DBKL Came to My Apartment
hi Kak June,
first of all
good luck to u too.
I have met this kind of neighbour but in another type of case.
It's really irritating and kinda fed up have this kind of neighbour.
Can't say we all 100% correct in every way but is it really hard to let us know politely?
and yes u r right kak june,
in kk, many still let their dog out without supervision.
very very irresponsible owner.
there are few road passers sometimes nearly got attack (usually at night).

Re: DBKL Came to My Apartment
ishh june,
one nasty neighbour u got there.
i wish i can help. not fostering though. i already have 16 in my tiny house. tolong tangkap2 kucing ka?
if you have 11 ferals to be saved, perhaps those who want to play a part to help can bring all bring a carrier/cage each and trap the cats together.
last time i checked, petfinder.my has more than 100 members registered as fosterers. i'm sure we can find a place for all 11 cats, feral or not.
u have my number, right?

Re: DBKL Came to My Apartment
Hi June,
Could you raise a petition? And get all of your neighbours to sign it. The petition could explain your objectives and the rational behind the TNR program which you are implementing, perhaps referencing other such TNR programs operating in other parts of the world...
Once you have a petition of support from your neighbours you could see if any news papers are interested in your story, again another opportunity to pitch the TNR program as a progressive means of humanly addressing the stray population. If you could get the DBKL to sign the petition too, on the grounds of TNR, then extra kudos!
At this point you might get your local MP interested,
I don't know if this strategy would work here in Malaysia though, but...
Good luck!

Disinfect everything that you borrow ...
June, remember to disinfect all traps, cages and carriers that you borrow, especially the traps because the people who might lend you the traps (keep it secret, you do not want to get them into trouble) do not bother about diseases transfering across animals sebab kerja mereka adalah tangkap, tangkap dan tangkap sahaja, and what happens later is not their responsibility or concern.
Dilute 1 part Chlorox in 30 parts of water and spray all your equipment. Then basuh dengan sabun and rinse well with water because Chlorox is very toxic to the animals. Then put everything under hot sun for half an hour for the sun's UV to do the rest.

DBKL Came to My Apartment
I don't think so Simon.Most residents here against are cats but not dog The strays I mentioned already neuter and I released them back to their area.Last nite someone throw away the bowl and plates I use to feed the strays in the bin. I dig the bin and clean it up. I put it back to the feeding station.This morning I asked the nice lady cleaner to help to hide it after the cats finish eating. I'll collect it back from her this evening after return from work.
Malaysia politician are only interested matter that involve big $$$$ Animal is not in their list. We can try but is a long battle.
