A New Home for Singapore's Stray Cats
Samuel Chua grew up playing with stray cats. “In public housing in Singapore, it’s illegal to keep a cat,” he said, “So if I wanted a pet, I had to play with the cats that lived in the common areas around our building.” Many Singaporeans today still live in soaring, high-density apartment buildings where pets are not allowed. “This is why people come here,” said Sam.

"Damnit," Ryan wined, tossing his hand out the window, "the road is blocked." We had been driving down the back roads outside Zagreb for nearly two hours in hopes of spotting an old Spomenik when our GPS routed us to a bridge that was occupied for a war ceremony. Men in military attire stood upright like tight, plastic dolls, holding one hand to their forehead and the other on an assault rifle. Cars pulled off to the side, waiting in one long line.

The Great Cat Burgle
Reading the title, one might think I misspelled burglar and I am about to tell the tale of a marvelous thieve. There is, in fact, some truth to that, but not in the way one would think. I have two amazing beasts, or rather the two cats have me. I believe once upon a time, both these little love bugs had owners, but they were not doing their job. Technically, I stole them and I never looked back. I never kept the cats against their will they could come and go whenever they wanted. Funny, they decided to stay with me, food and a warm couch and a lot of attention will do that.

Not all soulmates are people
A soulmate doesn't have to be a lover but is someone you are destined to meet, what if it's a cat? The cat that I loved so dearly I found injured, sick, dying and, alone. In this cat I found a beautiful friendship and a lovely companion this is the story of how I saved Mr.Tabby, or maybe he was the one saving me.

This One, I Want This One
I’d been watching her for a couple of weeks, and I knew there was something special about her, aside from the obvious difference. Every night at dinner time I would go out to the top of the driveway and wait, hoping to catch her eye. I stood well away from the commotion of the twenty or thirty feral cats milling around waiting for their food. They all lived right there under the house so there were always at least a few cats around, but night time was a three ring circus.

The Street Cat That Saved My Life
I didn't grow up with a sister like most people, I grew up with a cat. She accompanied me for 21 years of my life until she died. I was lost. I travelled the world and moved to Colombia all by myself. I never thought I will find someone (in that case "somecat") again, I care so much about and that is so much more than just a pet - but then came Agata.

Stark is my Hero
I always loved animal. Since I was very young my parents made sure that I was surrounded by dogs mostly. No matter where we lived we almost always had an dog. That changed of course when I got a little older. My parents divorced when I was 14, both my brother and I had very big mental health issues and an animal just seemed to be the last thing on our minds. I didn't really discover my love of cats until I was 15 and my dad suggested that I take a cat home to my mom. We named him Bandit but we didn't have him very long before he was stolen. Then we had a cat named Isra who we decided to give away because we simply couldn't take care of her and needed to find her a new home that would love her more.

FELINES FOREVER
I actually have three adoption stories, and that's the funny thing about cats, THEY adopt you, not the other way around. They know where they want to live and go to all lengths to get you to know they choose you. So no matter how hard you try, to say "just this once", they melt your heart and become part of the family.

Jan called to say that it was about time we had another cat! It seems she had a lovely little female grey tortie in the cattery due to it being dumped over her fence. She had rehoused the last one to us and we had Ming from 2 years to a very healthy 17 years old. Such a proud and awesome cat too.

Mirabella
When I first met my beloved kitten, my aunt and I were fostering her and her two little sisters. We had fostered kittens previously, but these three were the youngest we had ever had, only six weeks old. We didn’t know where their mother was or what happened to her, but these small little babies were terrified of everything and everyone. We had them in their own room, so they would be separate from the other cats that belonged to my aunt.
