So, neighbours are complaining about the community cats in Hougang Ave 7 a nuisance. They complained to me many times that the cats went up to pee and poo and I have told them many times too that there are people on top feeding the cats and that is why the cats go up and pee and poo. I told them the only way to stop the cats from going up the block is to stop people from feeding them on top. They won’t listen and keep putting the blame on me for feeding the cats. They knew their neighbours are feeding them and yet they refused to approached them. Hmm….
I tried to lure the cats to another quiet place to feed them, hopefully to save them from being put to sleep if the neighbours complain. However, I realised that whether I am feeding the cats or stop feeding the cats, the consequence is the same. These neighbours just want the cats to go away.
I have come to a decision finally. All this while, I have been quite stressed over the neighbours complains despite that I always keep the place clean after feeding the cats. I know by listening to them to stop feeding the cats will not solve the problem. Problem will still arise one after another.
So, my decision is, from now on, I will feed these lovely cats whenever I want and wherever I want. I will and have to keep the place clean as usual after feeding them. I will not argue with anyone. I just want to spend quality time with the cats. Feeding them and loving them. The neighbours want to starve them so that they will not pee and poo ha…. But I choose to feed them than to starve them.
Today, you stop others from feeding the hungry, tomorrow someone will stop someone who is trying to feed the hungry you.
