We have a very sad news.

PONTA-kun the kitten, we have rescued and protected last year had been desexed and vaccinated last year. He was fine and happy outside the cage the whole time with other cat staffs from this year.

This PONTA-kun was found passed away the other day.
He often ran off to the river band to play but usually came back within a short time. However, he did not come back for a while this day. A carpenter found him lying on the river bank and let the staff know. Staffs who have been taking care of cats 356 days a year so tenderly took him back and buried him rest in peace.

He was only 7 months old. To think of this little life had been taken away in pain and fear, our hearts have been crushed in sorrows. He was an adorable kitten eats well, plays well, and very friendly. Some people may say it was just a community owned cat. However, it was a little precious life to us. We hope from the bottom of our hearts for him to be resting in peace.

PONTA-kun
Thank you for the warm and kind time you sent with us.

We would like to thank all the people who cherished him, had an understanding and supported stray cats' protection project. Thank you so very much.
