This kitten was abandoned in the vicinity of the lift lobby in a block of flats in Bedok. She has such a sad look on her face. Sometimes she was found at the feet of gossiping housewives sitting around the concrete table and stools. Other times she hid in the shrub nearby.

In the morning she was confused and frightened by so many screaming children attending the childcare centre next to the lift lobby.
She didn't know how to eat dry cat food and so has to be give can food. On the evening of the 17th of January 2000, after the rain, she was rescued to join Ms Lee's feline family. She has a big bruise on her back. Was she abused? She tried to bite with her tiny little teeth when her back was touched. She also has some cysts on her back and leg which subsequently burst. She is now well abate a healing wound from the burst cyst. She now plays like crazy with Boh Keum and Puja Boy.

DIARY

29th August 2000: Neutered and Vaccinated at Namly Animal Clinic

26th September: Janooi is probably the most "kaypoh" (local Chinese slang for "inquisitive" cat in the cattery). She would tag the volunteer as he or she scooped up the poos from the three giant bins. Janooi is fascinated with water. She would sit close to the water bins as the water from the hose filled them up. She would stand on her hind legs to have a close look at the water flowing from the tap. I wonder what memories water stirred up in her mind.

Janooi is probably the most "kaypoh" (Singapore slang for "inquisitive") cat in the cattery. She will follow the volunteer/s going about the chores in the cattery
She has a fascinating fascination with water. She loves to watch the water coming out of the hose and from the tap. She will stand on her hind legs to drink from the dripping tap! Water was found running from the tap on two occasions after the volunteers have left and the suspect was none other than Janooi.
She was seen standing on her hind legs with her body rubbing and turning the tap-knob.
Now the volunteers have to make sure the knob was turned tight before leaving. A sign-board will be put up soon to remind volunteers to turn the knob tight or perhaps the sign-board should read :- Watch out for Janooi, the aqua-cat!
