About The Pet
Hi, my name is Junpei. I'm a domestic short hair stray around 5-6 months old. I'm white & gray in color with a very long & straight tail. I'm a shy kitty with strangers, but I'll warm up fast to them in time. I love tummy rubs and back rubs.
I used to have a little brother, his name is Junpyo. Both of us live on the rooftop of a condo building in Kajang. I don't know where our mother is, we've been on our own for a while. For quite some time now, we've found a human on the 8th floor who puts out food & water for strays like us. He also puts out a comfy mat & a box for us to play with. We go there everyday to eat & drink, and when he comes out of the house, he'll give us both tummy & back rubs and play with us for a while. We would patiently for him to come back when he's not home. When he does, it makes us both happy because we've never had owners and he's the closest to an owner that we've got.
Recently though, a very sad thing happened. I've lost my li'l brother Junpyo. He just disappeared one day, I don't know what happened to him. The kind human on the 8th floor doesn't know either, he's been up, down & around the condo block looking for Junpyo, but to no avail. So, I'm very lonely now, I have no one to play with anymore. Since Junpyo is gone, I am desperately in need of company and affection..I try to seek the attention of the kind 8th floor human more desperately now. I meoww loudly and look lost when he's not around. He feels my plight & loneliness, so he spends more time with me now. He can't let me in his house however, even though I have tried & meowwed asking him to let me in, because he has 2 other cats who are very territorial and his house is small. Somehow, I know the human is sad about my condition too.
I do hope that the kind human would find someone that would take me into their lives, and give me some loving & affection and a forever home. That's the least the kind human can do for me.
I am Junpei, and that is my story.
Are you the one who will give me a wonderful and fulfilling life?

Good news: Junpei is still alive & well. The 10th of July 2011 is the 1 year anniversary of him being lost (ran away) & becoming a stray. On the 11th of July (yesterday) I went back to Subang SS18/5G, the place where he was lost to remember him and also I guess to look for him, like I've done so many times before this.
Guess what? While I was driving around the neighborhood, out came a cat from under a car. I wasn't sure at first, so I got out of my car & went after the cat, calling Junpei's name to see if he would respond. He saw me coming and quickly ran away, dodging under another parked car. Before he snuck away, I saw a mark on his hind right leg, which confirms that yes..it is him! Miraculously, Junpei is still alive & relatively well after a year of living in the streets. I can hardly believe it, but apparently it's true. What's even more miraculous, I think, is for me to be able to see him again after so long. And on the same street & near to the same house where he was lost 1 year ago. Is it coincidence...or fate?
From what I can see, he looks a bit dirty & dusty, but is otherwise fine, although I did detect a slight limp when I saw him running away. Perhaps he suffered a leg injury some time ago. He also kept scratching his ears, so I guess he has a mild skin condition too.
I tried calling for him to come out from under the car he was hiding under, but he wouldn't come out. I heard again his strange, hoarse meowww, that I haven't heard for so long. I tried calling to him for a few minutes, but he just looked at me & then looked away again. He wouldn't come to me. So I went back to my car to check if I have any cat food in the boot (I usually have some, in case I see a stray cat in need). Unfortunately, this time there were none in my car. So I quickly hopped into the driver seat & drove away to the nearest 7-11 or vet to find some cat food to feed and lure Junpei with. Before I drove away, I spotted Junpei still under the same car, but this time he's sitting upright & appeared to be more alert. I said in my heart..."Please wait Junpei, I'll be back real soon with food".
The nearest vet that I found had cat food, I reached for a few cans but frustratingly enough, they didn't have change for the RM50 I handed to them. So I had to leave to find another shop. About 5 minutes later, I came out of a nearby 7-11 with cans & packets of wet food.
When I came back to the place where I last saw Junpei, he was nowhere to be seen. I walked around for half an hour, cursing myself all the while for not having food with me the 1st time around when I saw him. About 40 minutes later, after looking under a lot of cars and walking around a lot, I drove back home to Bangi, defeated.
I wonder what I should do now. I can't stop thinking about Junpei ever since yesterday. What happened is too miraculous, too good to be true. I mean, what are the odds of me seeing him again after so long. Is this all fate..is it supposed to mean something? Does God want me to do something? I don't know what it is. I asked myself, if Junpei did come to me when I saw him yesterday, would I have taken him back to the apartment in Kajang (where I used to lived), which is the place where he was born? If so, would that be better for him...or would leaving him be where he is now in Subang ultimately be better for him? Perhaps he is already somewhat familiar and comfortable where he is now, and capturing him & bringing him back to the Kajang apartment would only serve to disorient him, as he would have to adjust to a new place & new life..again. Perhaps it is better if I catch him and bring him to the vet to be treated for his skin condition, check his legs, deworm him, give medications and a good bath..then just release him back to the Subang neighborhood? Would that be the best for him?
I just don't know. I would appreciate your thoughts and advice. Has anyone been in the same situation before? Please advise me. Thank you in advance.
-Dani

Hi fluffy! Thanks for the comment but I think you misunderstood. Yes my place is in Kajang, Junpei was a stray cat living in my condo building. I kinda like 'fostered' him for 5 months or so. Recently about 2 weeks ago, someone wanted to adopt him, and that person is in Subang. When I brought Junpei to their house in Subang, Junpei managed to escape and run away. He is now STILL LOST in Subang SS18/5 area. I have went there twice to look for him, the 1st time didn't find him but the 2nd time I saw him going into someone's front yard! I quickly got out of my car and went to him with some cat food, but sadly Junpei wouldn't come to me. Maybe he has forgotten who I am :( I wanted to bring him back to Kajang to take better care of him. A kindly lady helped me to get a hold of Junpei but unfortunately, Junpei appeared to be really scared and managed to run away...again. I have distributed flyers/posters to most of the houses in that neighbourhood, saying I've lost Junpei and please would someone help. So far nothing yet.
If anyone who's living there sees him, please catch him and let me know. :(

Sadly, Junpei is no longer available for adoption :( A few days ago someone expressed an interest in adopting him, so I bathed him and brought him to their house. Once there, due to mishandling, Junpei managed to escape from my pet carrier. He ran away though we tried hard to catch/find him, it was to no avail. He was so scared and kept running. I've left my pet carrier and Junpei's toys with the person in case he can smell them, so that he'll come back. Sadly, to this day he still hasn't come back yet. The person's place is very far from Kajang, and I'm afraid Junpei has gone stray and is lost. I feel so very sad, he must be really scared all alone in a new place :( He truzted me and this is what I did to him :( :( :( I'm sorry Junpei, I did what I thought was best for you, but turns out it was for the worst...sob sob.
That being said, if anyone in the Subang SS18 area sees Junpei, please do let me know (email or call). I want to bring him back to Kajang if possible.

macgyverjune: Thanks so much..it saddens me to write it too. So far, only 2 people have asked me about him, but unfortunately, none of them followed through. Showed interest at first, but then nothing :(
midnightmaiden: Thanks, I wish for that too.
yangidayu: Pat given, Junpei says thanks! :D You're in JB, no problem, I can PosLaju him to you..hehe kidding :p But really, I think I'm willing to drive down there to meet you if it means Junpei will be adopted.
