Adopter Interested In Thong-Loeng, Cat With CH
Tweet |
In May 2013, Dr Veeranoot Nissapatorn rescued Thong-loeng, a little disabled kitten with cerebellar hypoplasia (also known as “CH”). The email below explains.
We subsidised Thong-loeng’s neutering and advertised for his adoption. There has been no takers at all until a few days ago when Adlina Naim wrote to say she is interested, despite knowing Thong-loeng’s disability.
Adlina (bless her kindness) has contacted Dr Veeranoot (who is now overseas) and while waiting for Dr Veeranoot to return, Adlina is learning all she can about CH so that she is well-prepared to take Thong-loeng and provide him with a caring and loving home. Adlina also has her own cats and says the cat-companionship will be good for Thong-loeng.
It’s been 5 months of waiting. But we know rehoming is one of the hardest part of rescue work. It takes patience, effort and perhaps, a touch of luck and affinity too!
Bless you, Adlina Naim. Thank you so much.
The world is full of wonderful people, isn’t it?

Dear Sis Chan,On December, 2013, a 6-months- old disabled kitten named Thong-loeng was rescued and was later sent to the vet clinic for medical check-up. He was highly suspected of having toxoplasmosis after blood test was done. Antibiotics and supplement were then given to treat his condition. However, there was no sign of improvement even after the initial 2 weeks, then 4 weeks and finally 6 weeks of complete medication. Thong-loeng has also been given 2 doses of vaccination as recommended by the vet.The vet later confirmed that Thong-loeng was suffered from parvovirus infection since birth through his pregnant mother which led to his condition called cerebellar hypoplasia (CH cat). I went through details of his condition to assist his daily life e.g., feeding, toileting, etc.A wheelchair is suggested to help his movements; however, this idea was aborted after consulting Lydia, a physiotherapist for disabled animals. The reason is he looks pretty much comfortable and is able to cope with his routine both functionally and mobility. Thong-loeng was sent to the vet for neutering on 14 May, 2013.I highly appreciate if a potential adopter who is willing to provide Thong-loeng a forever home with much love, care, and most importantly understanding his condition as a CH cat.Any amount for this neutering subsidy from AnimalCare Society will be donated to the medical fund In Loving Memory ofKwanchai.Thank you for the opportunity and hope you can kindly consider this request.
Sukhi Hotu!
Nui
