MY STORY

It’s said that cats have nine lives, and after what I've been through, I believe it! When I was found, I had a severe wound stretching from my cheek to my upper head. The exposed skin led to a dangerous infection that left me vulnerable and in unbearable pain.

 

Thankfully, a kind stranger brought me to Soi Dog Foundation, and I received months of dedicated medical care. Unfortunately, just when I dared to believe the worst was behind me, I got some more bad news. I was diagnosed with Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), a condition that weakens my immune system, making even common infections potentially dangerous to my health.

 

While my fur has never fully grown back, I’ve found something even more precious – a safe haven filled with love and kindness. And I don't let my FIV+ status slow me down. You might even catch me getting into playful mischief now and then! 

HOW YOU’LL HELP A CAT LIKE ME

Having FIV, Soi Dog will probably be the only home I ever have as it makes me less likely to be adopted. I know that’s hard to believe, but sadly it’s the reality.  

 

I like to look on the positive side of life though, and I have so many reasons to smile. After hearing my story, I hope you will be one of those reasons. I would really love to have a kind sponsor, someone just like you. Your sponsorship will ensure that I will continue to receive all of the important medicines I need, as well as having a safe place to call my home. Not only will your sponsorship help me, but all my friends too. I’d be lost without them.

 

If you decide to sponsor me, I will make sure you receive regular updates throughout the year as well as special videos.

 

I hope this is the start of a beautiful friendship between us, it’s all in your paws now!
