My name is Tiger and I just arrived
here at Khlongdogs. Well, I admit that I let myself in and in a
most unusual way claimed my membership. But, life rewards the
brave and here I am. It all started some time ago when I talked
to a friend and we both agreed that life on the street is
miserable even for a small boy like me. My friend however told
me that he heard about a place where guys like me are most
welcome and I decided to find this mysterious place. After a
long search I finally arrived at the gates of Khlongdogs but
imagine how I felt when I saw that the entire compound was
guarded by 12 dogs and the cat quarters were located inside the
house. I quickly realized that I needed a good plan and I mean a
really good plan in order to get into Khlongdogs. After all, I
wanted to be rescued alive!
I waited some time until the
dogs fell asleep before I gave myself a push, slipped through
the gate and made my way to the other end of the house where I
saw a good hiding place. There I stayed and tried not to draw
any attention from the dogs. Some of them apparently smelled
something but you know that dogs are not as smart as a cat.
After sunset the dogs usually spend some wild time in the large
garden and the humans appeared around my hiding place. It was
Paporn who found me sitting in a corner and she immediately told
Thomas to keep the dogs away so that she was able to catch me. I
was taken into the house and put in quarantine or how I like to
call it: protective custody. I made it and the fact that I had
to see the vet and stay alone for one week was easy to handle
since I already had enough food and water to drink.
Then
came the best day of my life. I was taken upstairs and joined
the others. Wow, 15 cats welcomed me and I knew that it was
worthwhile to come here. Some have only three legs, other run
around with only one eye but all of them appeared to be in a
great mood. Now, after several days in the team I already made
some friends and even the big guys who control the scene like me
and I guess they still give me a grace period because I am still
so small. In the night I can sleep in a large bed together with
Thomas, Garfield and others and we all have a great time here.
Well, there are those who say that it will take some time before
I can be called Tiger but I like to think that I have the heart
of a tiger and after all: this is the year of the tiger.
I don’t know what my life will bring but so far it looks very
promising and after listening to the stories which are told
around here I already feel great that I escaped the street. That
brings me to something I wanted to ask you. Look at me, I am so
small and I really do my best to fit in. If one of my friends
ever makes his way to your door – please take them in and give
them a home.
Please!
