The site is back
Ten years on, julaluck.org is live again, and I'm heading to Thailand with a camera.
Chiang Rai, Thailand
A home for the cats Yeepun saved.
My wife Yeepun spent her life pulling animals off the streets of Bangkok and nursing them back to health. She died in 2016. Her mother and sisters still care for nearly a hundred of her cats, and a few dogs, in three kennels in northern Thailand. This site is their stories, and a way to help.
Latest from the kennels

A home for Jumpy's kittens
The two surviving kittens with feline leukemia live in a small cage above the carport. We wanted to build them something better.
Building the new kennel
Wire mesh, posts and a lot of sweat. A look at the new kennel going up in Chiang Rai in November 2016.
The kennels
About the kennels Chiang Rai
The main kennel, on land owned by Yeepun's aunt. Most of the cats from the stories on this site were moved here after Yeepun died.
Their stories
All stories In memory Tiger
Found dying in a Bangkok parking lot, living in a cage made of trash. He went on to a long, healthy life with the family.
Snow
He fell from under a moving car on a Bangkok bridge. Two months in the clinic and a maxed-out credit card later, he was fine.
Manui
A black kitten from our nightly walks, rescued from a security guard who was about to put him back on the street.
In memory Nuu Yim
A lost kitten who played with a dry leaf in our Bangkok garden until we let him in. Independent, clever, and the only cat who ever obeyed me.
In memory Bang-earn
Found sitting quietly in a box by the roadside in southern Thailand. His name means “by chance.” He had FIV and lived in his own room.
Gift's Family
A stray mother cat, a kitten stuck inside a wall in a rainstorm, and a neighbor with small hands. All five are still together.
About this site
Family, not a foundation.
We are Yeepun's husband, parents and sisters. We are not a registered charity. Every gift goes to cat food, vet bills and building better kennels. None of it goes to people. Here is exactly how it works.
