When cats are in trouble I seldom take notice. I know this is wrong, and yes, I admit I am guilty. Blame it on a life of growing up with dogs, but it has always seemed a more noble thing to rescue a dog than a cat. I am biased, and I know it.

This is especially true for guys, for whom the choices are rather limited, unlike abroad where people can go on a shopping spree as the choices are rather limitless, enough to release the shopaholic in each person. But we are not as fortunate here. You either find clothes that are either too expensive, too plain or too fake, take your pick.

The cats are currently housed at the home of the CARA president at 33 Narra Avenue, South Forbes, Makati City. The kittens are between five and six months.

Albie told us about just how bust CARA has been in its efforts to save as many street cats as it can. He also told us that the cats were rescued and have been rehabilitated.

I’m sharing this with you for the benefit of the numerous homeless cats and dogs out there on the streets or in shelters and pounds that are abandoned and waiting for their turn to become pulutan, run over, kicked aside or to die of slow starvation.

As far as I know, in the US they scout around city pounds and shelters for trainable canines to be used as sniffing dogs for drugs or bombs and some even as Dr. Dog or Cat so that they can help patients in hospitals.
