Home-Nursing For Juling, A Sporo-Cat (Anne Suhana Kassims)
Tweet |
Anne Suhana wrote to seek advice on how to nurse Juling, a sporo-cat who has been neglected by his owner. We are deeply touched that Anne has decided to nurse Juling herself despite not having any experience at all. We have got Anne in touch with two of our readers who had successfully home-nursed their respective sporo-cats so that they can share their experience with Anne.
Anne has already started a facebook page for Juling (http://www.facebook.com/SaveJuling)and has appealed for funds through facebook. She feels that our hard-earned funds (for charitable cases) should be used for those who are unable to raise funds on their own. Thank you for your thoughtfulness in this, Anne.
As we always say, if you have the means to raise funds on your own, let us reserve our funds for those who do not have this ability.
Since fundraising has started for Juling on facebook, we will not need to subsidise Juling’s case anymore. As a general rule, we do not subsidise cases that are publicised on facebook because sourcing donations on facebook is very effective.
We will, however, continue to help Anne in any other ways and we hope our readers will also give her moral support and encouragement to strive on courageously.
Sporotrichosis is a zoonotic fungal disease which can spread to humans:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sporotrichosis
In the past, we have subsidised 4 sporo cases: Fitri is fit and healthy now, Puteri recovered and was adopted but passed away of unknown causes months later, Silver recovered but there is no news from the rescuer while Blackey was recovering but succumbed to complications due to an unrelated surgery. We also have shared stories from two readers who have successfully home-nursed sporo-cats. We hope all this can help Anne.

I have nowhere to refer to now. Juling is actually my ex-neighbour’s
cat that I fed everyday for almost 6 mths. And then I moved to other
place. Tried to pay him a visit many times but couldn’t find him.
Until, my ex housemate told me that Juling is sick. So I met my fren,
Gaya. She told me that she brought Juling to vet and Dr confirmed that
he’s infected with Sporo. Due to fight with stray dogs around the
neighbourhood. Please dont ask about the owner, she dont even bother
to bring Juling to clinic, even after one of her cat died due to fight
with dogs. I asked Juling from his owner as I hear from Gaya she no
longer interested to look after Juling and guess what? She dont even
bother to see me when I went to her house to take Juling!
I’ve made my search on the Internet about this and found out that
Sporo is some serious disease!
After my 2 days search, bought him a cage, wee wee pad, e collar and
itraconazole. Bought jeli gamat for his wounds but he seems don’t like
it.
I cried everytime I near him. So sad to see that spoiled boy in that
condition.
Please help me.. Really dunno what to do. I always outstation,
2-3 times in a week, no one to take care of him.
You may find his pictures atwww.facebook.com/SaveJuling
Thanking you in advance.
Since sporotrichosis is a serious illness, let us keep Juling in our prayers every day and wish him well. Let us also send positive wishes to Anne Suhana so that she would have the strength and tenacity to nurse Juling back to health.
