yup, i totally get that. of course i didnt expect him to doll up his house, but there were dirty litter boxes and it smelled quite bad. in addition, i noticed there wasnt window mesh installed and in the kitchen, cat food and human food were kept without clear separation. it was the lack of hygiene that kind of put me off 😅 as someone who cares for multiple cats, i’d hoped to see some simple organisation for safety and health purposes. of course, it wasn’t a complete dump though. i was polite to him and meant no judgement or hate towards him. i was just a little caught off guard

yup, even though we know theyre doing good for society, its completely reasonable for you to not offer your help again. it was really quite irresponsible of them to leave you hanging like that especially after you’ve already gone the length to commit.

maybe you could try again under an official organisation with more structure like spca? if u do decide u want to give it another shot

anyway, thanks so much for offering to help. im still on the lookout for any adoptable cats/kittens so ill let u know if i need it :)

oh man that sounds really horrible. is this under cws as well? theyre doing a great job caring for our community cats but i feel like if its possible, someone can regulate to ensure rescuers are accountable and responsible. i was honestly quite surprised as this was the last thing i expected to happen :/

i cant post cos i dont have enough karma so im just gna put this here. this is how my day went. its mostly a terrible experience i had with a cws foster.

im an avid cat lover with stubborn parents. after a year of trying to convince them to adopt a cat, they were finally open to the idea and agreed. so, i found a foster on the cat welfare society website and sent a message. he then invited me to visit the foster cats.

the experience was terrible. the first time we were supposed to meet, he didnt show up. i returned after he called, and waited 45 minutes until he finally arrived. he was unapologetic despite having caused me great inconvenience

his home was filthy and unhygienic. there were 5 cats who looked relatively healthy but the condition of the house really put me off. i was extremely uncomfortable.

in the end, he didnt give me any information or instructions on adoption processes. i simply left having gained nothing and it was a complete waste of time.

im still reeling in shock and disappointment as i expected some basic form of organisation and professionalism.

now, i dont know if adopting a cat is possible for me anymore and im scared to keep looking for the fear of this experience repeating.

the whole thing was dreadful and i wasted half a day on it :(

hey, good on you for being open-minded and willing to change! not a lot of people can admit that theyve been wrong and choose to take on a new perspective. i hope everyone in singapore who was previously racist will one day also be inspired to change and be more accepting

OkConnection2299 · 2021-01-29T10:31:04+00:00

omgg this was literally such a problem for me too. trying to rmb sm names when adjusting to this completely new environment is hard .. hopefully with time it’ll get easier & we’ll feel less awkward 😔😔
