Solid Gone Cat
This is Jamil. When we met him just over a year ago he had rescued over 70 cats from the streets of Kuala Lumpur, Maylasia. He is truly an amazing man, he lives in a small flat with all his cats. Most nights you can find him outside the convenience store, collecting money for his beloved companions. It is wonderful and totally unbelievable – the cats sit on the bike for about 4 hours a night without getting off. They have a special communion with Jamil and respect him. But they only listen to him in English and not Malay! If they do start to stray, he chastises them in English, and they get back on the bike again. I think there is a rota for his pussies, they take it in turns to come out for the night.
He also has a rota for which cats sleep with him at night. He is desparately trying to raise money to build a proper cat shelter.
This is one of Jamil’s favourite pussies who is quite happy to be put in this position and stays like this for ages!

Too funny!!! I can totally relate to Jamil, I would build a shelter as well if I could. There are lots of ferrel/stray cats in my neighborhood. I help as many of them as possible right along with the neighbors! I’m such a sucker for cats, they have me wrapped around their paw! ~]:)
ApeArt replied
lol love it – wrapped around their paw, talking of which, finding it difficultm to type as binky cat is RIGHT in the way lol :)
