Farewell, Rex (one Of The Sunny Kittens)
Tweet | ![]() |
If you were following our stories since 2011, you might remember the Sunny Kittens?
They were these 3 absolutely adorable kittens rescued by someone in KL (found abandoned in a box) and brought to me.
We had SO many memorable and very, very joyful time with the Sunny Kittens, but we just could not adopt anymore cats, so they were open for adoption.
Rozita Halim and her family adopted them. By far and undoubtedly, Rozita’s family remain one of the best adopters I’ve ever, ever found. I, unfortunately, have never quite had much luck with finding adopters, so Rozita and her family were heavensent!
Here are some posts about the Sunny Kittens and also why I named them “Sunny”. If you do a word search on this blog, you would see tons of posts on them featuring such happy times while they were with us.

Rozita continued to send updates and photos every now and then.

It’s been 7 years now and today, I received very sad news from Rozita.
Rex passed away yesterday morning, of kidney failure. Of course Rozita and her family are devastated. Rex has been a son and brother to them. I am equally deeply saddened by this loss. It also feels like my loss too, since we had fostered them when they were rescued.
I am sure those of you who were with us in 2011 are also sad to hear this.
I know for certain that the Sunnies couldn’t have found a better home and more loving family than Rozita’s. I remain extremely grateful to Rozita and her family for adopting them. All these years whenever I think of them, I feel so, so thankful.
With Rozita’s permission, here is her email and some photos of Rex:

Dear Dr Chan,








The day the Sunnies went to their wonderful and loving forever home.
I remember the night before the Sunnies were adopted. Rex had always been the most responsible kitten, of the three. Fox was playful and HoneyBear was the baby. Rex was very reliable, so I told him that he must take care of his brother and sister.
Farewell, my dearest Rex. Be happy at Rainbow Bridge!
Like Rozita, I too miss you. Your have done your duty in your earthly existence and now it is time to transcend to a much higher realm!
Thank you so much, Rozita and family. I have no words to thank you enough.
Please take good care and I pray time will heal your sense of loss and only the sweet and wonderful memories will remain.
