We believe Yellow’s underdeveloped left eye was due to malnutrition since the day she was born or maybe she was already like that when she was in her mummy’s womb. She wasn’t well taken care of but yet survive through the harsh environment. She was bearly six-months-old when she was heavily pregnant eight years ago. We couldn’t bring ourselves to abort her kittens. As buddhists, we try to keep our precepts by not causing harm to others and commit killing.
We put her on boarding till she gave birth. Four kittens and one of the them was my beloved Vanilla.
Her eye looks really bad. Dr Heng did the surgery on 23 March. We sent her removed eyeball to the lap for further examination and it was lymphoma.
We are glad that it hadn’t spread to other parts of her body. She is eating well and active.
I am giving her TCM supplement to boost her immune system. I have lost too many cats lately… and I am not ok… So Yellow and the rest, please stay strong and healthy!
