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.
The yellow house in Cham Phak Kut: a normal family home with a cat kennel built into it. Lucky, Snow, Manui and Gift's family live here.
We call this one the yellow house. It is in Cham Phak Kut, in Chiang Rai province, near the main kennel, and it is a normal home: two bedrooms, an office, a kitchen, a garage. What it also has is a cat kennel built into it, which was part of the plan for the house.
Inside the kennel there are units for the cats that don’t get along with the others, who roam around freely. Lucky, Snow and Manui live here. Gift’s family, the oldest rescues, live inside the home itself and get special treatment.
Counts, costs and photos are coming from my visit.
Food, vet visits and a little more room to play. Every gift goes straight to the animals.
To support this kennel specifically, write Cham Phak Kut 2 in the memo of your payment. Gifts without a note are split equally among the kennels.

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.
A black kitten from our nightly walks, rescued from a security guard who was about to put him back on the street.
In memory 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 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.
A stray mother cat, a kitten stuck inside a wall in a rainstorm, and a neighbor with small hands. All five are still together.
Found barely alive beside a garbage bin on a Bangkok sidewalk in May 2015. He pulled through, and has wobbled happily ever since.
