Honestly i just realised this recently, when i watch western countries stray cat videos. They seem afraid to humans and i find it weird. Stray cat at malaysia are mostly friendly to strangers. When i watch this video, its confirmed malaysian cats are extremely friendly and we take it for granted lols Thank you for provided them food 👍🏽
The cats in Malaysia all come to me like they are all my family and I love it!! Thank you😊
Video ni wat air mata ku jatuh masa dia cerita psl kucing dia yg mati (Michael) & tersenyum gembira ketawa sebab ada part yg lucu, auto subscribe Samurai trus..👏👏👍
not all cats in malaysia were super friendly im a malaysian and i know that.last time i try to pet a cat at the street and it ran away 。。。😥so i wont bother those cats business cuz its feels disturbing
Yes agreee
@@nelson8222 unfortunately there's still people in Malaysia who abuse stray cats, the one are afraid of humans probably have been abuse by people.
Another eye-opener for Malaysians. We are so used to stray cats that we never know how unique it is to other cultures. I've always been wondering the excitement of Japanese people whenever they saw a stray cat. You learn something new every day.
Thank you for watching and leaving a comment😊
i mean, theres turkey who take care of their stray cats better than any other countries
I went to western countries and their cats are assholes.
@@hazelnuteyes good to know!
@@hazelnuteyes it's true.
So this is why I saw Japanese people who stay near my residential area always get so excited when they see cats around... I never knew we have different environment when it comes to stray cats. You showed me a new perspective 😄 Welcome to Malaysia!
Thank you for your warm welcome😊
@@SamuraiStayAtHomeDad hope you enjoy our country!
U must be like "korang ni dah kenapa? X penah tengok kucing ke?" 🤣🤣🤣
I really love your observations. It's true, Malaysians are so used to seeing cats everywhere, we take it for granted. I never realised it could seem as something special to others 😸 even though there are pros and cons (messy trash etc), we have some things other places don't have. We have kawaii neko!
I think most Malaysians have a soft spot for animals. For muslims, feeding cats (and also other animals, but especially cats) is a noble thing to do. We believe that if we share ur wealth with cats, they will bless us.
Thank you for sharing. Nice to hear how you felt watching this video😉
As a muslim and a Malaysian i approve this message
Sharing rezeki with others not only focus on human..also animals.
@@User-hg4xn you Muslim but support Ukraine Jews ?
@@xiaoma4297 Im turkish
Actually, there are many Malaysians just like you, who, upon seeing a cute cat, will just gush, "kawaiiii" and start to approach them... my family included. However, most people are more reserved, though they still love the cats. They will feed them and shelter them, even if they don't bring them home.
So don't worry about playing with the stray cats here. Malaysians are used to it 😁
Thank you for sharing. We sometimes spend like 2 hours just playing with cats😁
Yes exactly, my mom is a huuge animal lover, esp cats.. she had rescued almost 50+ cats.. and abt 20+ currently still living with us. But apart from petting she hardly cuddled or kissed these kitties even her favourite ones.. she also detested when she saw us kissing the cats like little babies. Lol
Oh my god yes I love cats I was walking back from school and I saw these kittens with my friend and I was there so long my friend blackmailed me to leave, all the part of my Malaysian school day 👍
This has been an interesting observation of the different treatment of cats in Japan vs Malaysia.
Stray cats and dogs can sense if you’re an animal lover or not. They tend to gravitate towards those who have good vibes (no hateful motive/loves animals).
This is a little late but… Welcome to Malaysia!
Thank you for your warm welcome. I must have the cat lover vibe😊
i am especially pleased when you said that the stray cats are happy here.
this is a very interesting one-of-a-kind observation from a foreigner moving to malaysia (majority of the social media contents are sooo focused on our delicious food). 😅
.
i guess this is the general "kasih" (mercy) trait of malaysians - we love to share with others even if that "others" are feline.
during the MCOs, apart from having kind-hearted people coming together checking that fellow malaysians have enough basic food on their tables, there were also a number of groups who volunteered to check on the needs of the strays too.
"kita jaga kita" at another level. 💕
.
my mother used to fed the strays around the house for about two decades or so before deciding not to continue anymore.. parting with them can be very tragic, very heart-braking even if the cat are mere strays.. i lost count of the number of graves that my family had dug.. a number of the cats came back to visit after had been 'missing'.. only to find them lifeless in the drain not long after.. 😢
We have to bear the sadness of losing life and this is one of the hardest things😢 Thank you for sharing your story.
Haha true. Most foreigners youtubers always focusing on food when it's about malaysia. I don't blame them though as we love our foods and it'll always get more views. So this video feel more fresh to watch.
Yes..... the drain is where I search first if they go missing. Over the years I discovered that they normally go to pass away near any source of water, drains, toilets etc.
So sad when they leave us.....❤
@@h3ir.enfield that's a good (yet heartbreaking) observation you have there.
to be honest i never realised..i run a convenience shop and i just let some cat roam around in the shop everyday..(i'm malaysian btw,) every morning i fed them and prepare their water bowl..and they are free to go wherever they want.. everywhere i go it's like this..even some supermarket just let cats roam around freely..i wonder too why..
there are bad people who dont like cats and did terrible things to them, but we can report these kind of cases to police..oh yeah last time i visit, there's about 5 cats in the police station on my hometown 😅
So you are one of the kind Malaysian who feeds cats😊 Thank you!!
@@SamuraiStayAtHomeDad o\\\o hait..domo
A stray cat just passed thru my feet as im reading this lol
5 Pawlice Cats?
@@papasmurf6836 🤣🤣🤣 that's gold bro. yes, 5 pawlice cat 🚓🐈
It’s a really thoughtful observation of yours. I am living in Japan. And I really feel the differences. You feel it from the Malaysia side, I feel it from the Japan side. The most difficult thing is to have a pet in Japan. We only can have pet if the house that we rent can have pet. I just moved to new house just to have a cat. About the stray cat in Japan, I always said that cat in japan are shy same as japanese people😂 If I found a friendly cat in Japan, I will spend a few minute almost half an hour just to pet them. Thank god, my cat that I have right now is not shy at all, just like his Malaysian mommy (that is me). 🐈⬛
Happy to hear you found the house comfortable for you and your kitty😊 Thank you for sharing!!
I’m happy to read this comment. :)
In the old days when people used to live in villages or 'kampung's, a lot of homes keep their pets freely outside. I guess in some cases where people have landed houses in cities nowadays people still keep that practise. So it seems natural to have cats going around the neighbourhood making their rounds. Sometimes the cats do have owners (especially if it has collars). But yes, what you are observing is probably true. Most times, Malaysians do just leave them alone. I like cats, so if i see one around, sometimes i pet them too!
It's very rare to see cats with collars but yes I have seen one once!! Thank you for sharing😊
This is true. I never locked my cats in my house all the time. If they want to go out i let them out, and they will come back at night. Same thing with other cats in our neighbourhood.
So truee at my grandpa house theres about 10 cats.Everytime my family went home for Hari Raya theres cat everywhere just sleeping
same here. my two cats roaming freely outside the house. my cat specifically has routines like morning they will eat, and take care their business outside and then going around the neighborhood. when it's night time, they will come home before 7pm and eat dinner.
my daughter keeps a bag of cat kibbles in her car so she can be ready to feed any strays cats that she comes across
Must be your daughter I came across🤣 Thank you for your comment!!
Wow. This was like watching a relaxing show about cats in Malaysia. I enjoyed watching it.
Thank you so much!! Happy to hear that😊
hello there! Malaysian here who has lived in multiple states before, ranging from urban to rural areas. There are certainly stray cats who dig in trash cans, just not as frequent anymore because our government has a mandate to use those big green trash cans with the covers. Back then, it used to be a problem everywhere, especially for housing areas with an uncontrolled population growth of stray cats. It's not just stray cats digging in people's trash, it's stray dogs and occasionally, you get the monkeys too. That's why there's the trash can mandate now.
From the trash can mandate, more people are starting to opt to feed the strays instead, since they can't really dig in the trash anymore for scraps to eat, and most of us just can't really bear to see them starve to death, so we just opt to feed them. Of course, this doesn't apply to every single one of us, but I'm just saying this is also one of the factors contributing to what we're seeing here in this video.
Also to keep in mind, most of us are religious/spiritual in this country. No matter what faith we believe in, we always believe that it's good to care for the needs of another being, be it human or not, so this manifests itself as feeding stray animals and being kind to them. Again, of course, I'm not saying this applies to everyone. You can be not religious and still be kind to strays, but I'm just saying this is a prevalent mindset for many of the people here.
I'm glad you're having a good time with these little cuties. We really appreciate it when we see people love on them as much as we do.
Thank you for sharing the background😊 I have better understanding about how the rubbish is dealt with.
Your comment answers the question perfectly.
Love how you need to justifies every point you made so somehow you didn't get into any stinky argument ,😂
@@yushagotnochill8842 I like to make my stance as clear as possible.
Cats, like humans, are god’s creations hence they deserve some love. Growing up in Malaysia I was always reminded that not only humans deserve love, animals too. And anytime we hear about a baby being left in front of a building or in trash can, my mom would say “even cats can take care of their babies better than us”.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts😊 It's amazing how mother cats can raise babies even if they are never taught.
Whenever you see cats in that area, there were no rats around. I used to live in Kepong and there was a lot of stray dogs in the area and have a lot of rats and cockroaches (they attacked the cats but not the rats!). Cats see the pests as playthings and reduced the cause of diseases. It is a mutual feeling that we need each other.
There is a lot of difference when I moved to another cat friendly neighborhood here and I even housed a stray with feeding them and sometimes sleep in my house (because of the air conditioning unit :D). I don't see rat problem and most people here drives slowly because afraid to hit the cats and it is safe for kids to play in front of their houses. I see a lot of pros than cons having cats around.
So the cats do help us in their own way, hunting the rats😊 Thank you for sharing!!
I noticed that too, before and after stray cat come resident on my neighbourhood area. Now hardly seeing rat or non at all. I'm also had 5 cats at home, and happy with it. I always put a water, food and event container with sand at parking lot for my cat but stray cats also like to enjot it too.
Yes, it's because of the smell of the cat that steers rats away. There's a study done on this.
Yes, it's because of the smell of the cat that steers rats away. There's a study done on this.
now i understand.. my new office in sg buloh..there are a lot of dog here..and a lot of rat too.. i really wondering why there are so many rat here
As a Muslims, cats were favourite pets of our Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. , and when u feed the cats, stray animals or any pets, we believe they will pray to God to gave us "rezeki", blessing and prosperous life too.. petting cats can released your tension and depression since they naturally can neutralise negative aura that we carried as a human. Once u pet a cat, other stranger cat can smell the scene of previous cat near u feet and will eventually came closer to your feet and like u for sure. We also feed birds too in the early morning.. can found in many part of city in Malaysia.
We are also fascinated with birds because they totally sound different from Japan, and with beautiful colors like bright yellow or blue. Thank you for sharing about the religious perspective too😊
This reminds me when i was in school. The whole class like cats so we would bring stray cats roaming around our school into our class, take turns to pet them and provide food and drink for them at the corner of the class. We even named them and make them a family😂
Apparently during weekly meeting between teachers some teacher bring this matter into discussion. Many teachers came by to see for themselves, how we take care of cats in our class.
Unfortunately some teachers wasn’t comfortable having cats in the class so we had to put all the food and drinks outside. It was a fun memory though✨
I think it's very good experience for children to take care of animals (not only feeding them but also cleaning their poop, etc..). Thank you for sharing😊
Aww this brings back memories for me too! I went to a boarding school and there's lots of stray cats that are loved by the students. Some of them hang out in classrooms too! I always had a cat just lounging on my desk while we were studying for spm. Most of my teachers just let it be cuz they know how much i love cats XD
i hope the other students carried on this tradition
I stayed in boarding school before too. We have cats everywhere even in class. Sometimes the teacher make jokes by pretending to scold the cat for not paying attention to the class. It's a fun memory. We take cares of the cats and feed them. The cats also join in the class to learn. So funny.
My class was like that too🫠
Thank you for making this video. You really give a new perspective to us Malaysian. It actually confuses me too when i look at western society, where there's rarely stray cats and dogs, and if they have strays walking around they would call animal shelter to be adopted or euthanised which is quite shocking. I know having stray animals have pro and cons, like it makes the street look clean etc but then it makes the people kind of cold. I can never understand why you can't have stray cats and dogs, the world is their home, not every animals need to be domesticated. People just need to be more kind and caring. This is just my opinion. 😅
Thank you for sharing. Yes I agree, cats at parks look so peaceful😊
They also an effective rodenticide. I really dont see a problem
Personally i think, a reason animal shelter is called, is because sometimes climate changes in other countries can either make the pet feel too hot or too cold depending on season, Malaysia however doesnt have winter or summer so strays survive longer(? im assuming)
But yeah this video definitely made me realize alot of stuff about our strays
I remembered one video abt a cat sitting at the train station in Israel.. out of all those 100s people walking pass by the cat only 1-2 pet and smiled to the cat. Most of them have very stern face or indifferent towards the cat. This showed how cold the society is..
We tend to speak with the stray cats even though they just answer with "meow" 😅
Hai cantik, lawa bulu, mandi pukul berapa tadi 🤣🤣🤣
I do that too but in English but I fail at Malay. Needed extra lessons even though I'm Malaysian. I feel like some people stare at me weirdly for talking to the stray cats though :(
@@naylisyazwina6836 I'm better at English than Malay even though I'm Malaysian, my English test results are always way higher 🤦 seems like you've got the same problem lol
I do believe our cat is special and unique like us 😁 they can understand multi languages 😽
I think we are taking Istanbul as the role model in caring for animals. So many things can be better for our animals. It's a learning process even for us Malaysians.
I've never ever thinking about these things before.. 😅 Stray cats is very common in Malaysia, even in my neighbourhood is full of cats. I think many people don't spay their cats and when their cats become too many.. they just left them somewhere far away 😓
Now, people knows that we can spay our cats.. maybe it can control stray cats population. I really appreciate this kinda video, love it 🥰 coz we never think abiut this before 😅
*Don't forget to sanitized your hand after touching cats 😊 my mom got some infection years ago after she got scratch by stray cat.
Thank you for sharing😊 And yes I will be careful and sanitize!!
This is a nice observation on cats. It makes us appreciate the living condition we have better. Salam Ramadan Samurai Dad 🌙
Thank you😊 I'm happy to be in this peaceful environment.
My granddad told me that Allah sends cats your way to remind you that you are loved; the pure bliss that we get from the interaction is as pure and as simple as love itself. The serene calmness of joy is the gift to remind us that love is kindness. So that is why a cat is precious in our eyes.
to be honest, i kinda surprised that some people admire "us" having a lot of stray cats everywhere in Malaysia.
Wow... literally never thought about the life of cats in Malaysia hahaha... All this while I just think of them as "dirty" and the cat food being everywhere messes up public walkways, but you've given me a new perspective. I think I will be reminded of this video whenever I run into a stray cat from now... :D Thank you for sharing your interesting thoughts! That comment about Malaysia being a "free cat cafe" made me laugh
Yes it's like living in a huge cat cafe😊 Thank you for sharing your thoughts!!
Oh yesh reminds of the time when a LRT Station literally kept a cat as a pet at their station, like they give the cat a collar and even a staff id hahaha 😂😂
I would love to see that!!! Thanks for the info😊
@@SamuraiStayAtHomeDad even universities have their own cats. long time ago, there is a mascot cat in International Islamic University Malaysia's Kulliyyah of ICT, called Labun. Labun is already 'graduated' from the university though XD
LRT university have one white cat just sitting at entrance every morning and sunset time, loaf state eyes close like its the official greeter of the station. Hehe
@@second_second_ When was that?
wow. a different perspective that we had never give any attention at all. giving out food to cats & other animals are just an instinct that every living things are supposedly to have meals in the belly... but to think it is a paradise for cats, is a totally different perspective.
I myself dont keep animal as pet, am not cat lover, but not to the level to hate them..
good to know your view Mr Samurai...
Thank you for sharing. It's heart warming to see cats being taken care of😊
The sight of a stray cat on even first meeting already snuggling at your legs and showing its tummy is something to savour. We always have a big jar of cat's dry food in our car to feed any stray cat that we happen to encounter at car parks, etc.
I'm amazed to hear so many people keep cat food in their cars😳!! Thank you for sharing.
I just realized that when we hang around mamak or restaurants to eat, no one really bothers to chase away the cats. Some kinder people will even share their food with these cats
Thank you for sharing😊
My old residence where almost all blocks staircase have water and cat foods prepared. One of the nearby fishmonger stall has a regular customer - A male cat boss!! They usually threw a whole fish for that cat boss to catch daily. What a cute sight tbh .. Hahaha
Wow I'd love to see the boss cat and the fish!! Thank you for sharing😊
i actually cried watching this vid bc its so obvious we take the cats for granted. NEVER hv i ever think abt how privilage we are to hv cats lively around without being scared or distrust of human. can nvr imagine my days pass by without petting, feeding, rubbing tummy of them. watching this makes me even more grateful of this little thing. also i must say, i love ur perspective as foreigner living in Malaysia. when i say we learn more n more abt our own country from people outside Malaysia itself lol. hope u and families hv only good memories here!
Happy to hear that you liked the video. Thank you for your comment😊
I've watch a lot of videos of people taking forever trying to approach stray cats and thought to myself, 'I can do that in seconds.'
Well, turns out I'm no cat whisperer, It's just our stray cats are friendlier
When I was in Turkiye they feed most of dogs and cats everywhere. And they volunteer spayed the cats too. I hope Malaysian could also have more volunteer to spayed the stray cats. I have initially have 6 cats 😅😅 half of them spayed but unfortunately the female mother cat loose from home unconscious add more 6 to the house🤦♀️.
I agree on cats getting more surgeries but it's also pretty difficult because there are so many...!! Thank you for sharing😊
Those cats breed faster than we could collect money to spay them LOL 😂😂
僕もマレーシア生活6か月で感じてた一つです。すごく共感しました。これだけで卒論書けます(笑)。あとハトやカラスにもマレーシア人は優しいと思っています。イスラム教の教えなんですかね。良い動画ありがとうございます。
Yes. . . Because they are living creatures too
Yes,and our Prophet Muhammad really loves cat.
It's not only Islam but other religions too.. I found that Malaysian Indian like to feed birds
Oh yes, in Islam we are taught that feeding hungry animals (and people too) will increase our rizq; it can come in the form of money, opportunity, happiness, health etc. Not every muslim practices it 😅 but many of us do ☺️ And cats hold special place in our heart because Prophet Muhammad s.a.w loves cats very much💗
There's even a story about a sinful woman (she was a prostitute) was decided by God to be allowed to enter paradise because she showed kindness to a thirsty stray dog; she gave the dog water using her own shoe (this is in the case where she understands that she's doing big sins & feel bad about it, but haven't stopped yet; probably due to circumstances). Such is kindness highly upholded in Islam
@RYuuka Khadijah Thank you for sharing religious perspective and stories!! Very interesting😊
When I visited Japan last time, I really missed to see cats on the street...but no cat to be seen. I really excited when I saw 1cat 100m far from me....but the cat ran so quickly
🤣 Cats in Japan are not as friendly as cats in Malaysia. Very hard to pet. Thank you for sharing!!
For me as a cat lover, I'll always have a bottle of cat food in my car so that whenever I stumble upon stray cats, I'll prepare them food n water. I believe when we share, we get lots more in return from life. My cats at home were all stray cats, they were once homeless but I took them in, took them to vet, vaccinated n treated them, now they are all happy indoor cats ☺️
Your cats must be very happy living with you. Thanks😊
I really do feel that Malaysians truly love cats, regardless of any races.
I live in a condominium, normally they do not allow to feed stray cats in public. But since everyone are feeding the stray cats daily, even the guards are feeding and even build them a house, the notice was taken down 🤣
Can detect a good neighbourhood if you see many cats roaming around in the area.
Malaysia is a heaven for cats..... Believe me....
what a great (and wholesome) observation of stray cats here - I never realized how happy/comfy they actually are because I'm so used the warmth and manja-ness they seem to have for people. thank you, Samurai Dad!
Thank you for your warm comment. Happy to hear you liked it😊
Cats are literally everywhere so most people don't really have a strong reaction to cats. Didn't think that this was something rare.
Yes they are very happy and carefree enough to sleep in the middle of a walkway peacefully
My daughters' habit is to bring injured cats and abandoned cats with kittens home. Now there are almost 20 cats at my house and one more waiting to deliver her babies anytime. I even built a cat bungalow for them. Need to spend quiet a lot for food and litter, but amazingly i have never run out of money ever since we started taking care of these cats. We muslims believe every creature is blessed with his own " rezeki " or allowance from God , so in this case the rezeki comes to the keeper.
You took care of the poor cats and now happiness came to you and all the cats. Great story😊 Thank you for sharing!!
As a Malaysian, I can confirm this is true and real. Whenever and wherever you are in Malaysia, you'd find a cat on a car, the roof, next to a longkang (drain), or maybe napping next to the road. If you approach them and you realize that there are injuries on them, you need not worry. It's not an injury from people throwing rocks or stuff, mostly the injury is from an accident. If you want to bring it to a vet to treat its injury or anything, you could feel free to do so without worrying about anyone complaining. If you help the strays out they are more than happy ^^ If you can't help them, giving them some attention would also be seen as a good act for them. Also when you said 'No one in Malaysia realizes that this is such a special and favored cat-paradise' actually there are a lot of people saving cats and dogs, after they save the strays and help treat the strays, they find shelter and family for them, you can find people posting the stray animals pictures that they saved on Facebook ( this is where you find these posts more often) and other social media. Hope this is good information!!
I live in Korea for a while now and I feel so deprived of cats. They won’t let you touch them! They saw you, they stiffened and when you came close, they ran 😤😤 thank you for this video. As a Malaysian, I realized just how blessed we are with cats so friendly
Superb !
Philosophical and soulful.
Btw, this is a way to reflect on the beauty of Msia. If three big ethnic groups can live together peacefully, ....living with cats is a piece of cake !
Accepting the difference and respecting each other... this is what I feel is great about Malaysia. Thank you for sharing😊
This video really made many of us Malaysians realized how privileged we are with cats. It's quite humbling to know that this was something us Malaysians took for granted of the time, as some of us thought that stray cats live a better life in Japan compared to Malaysia, but your information showed otherwise.
Thanks a lot for this very informative video.
Thank you for watching and for your comment😊
Such an amazing content….but what’s so special is the fact that this japanese dude appreciates and reminds us Malaysians of what a great country we live in. I’m proud. Thanks to those who feed the strays.
Watching you ponder and elaborate deep into a topic feels like watching anime hahahhahaha
Thank you for watching!! Happy you enjoyed it😊
Yup totally agree with comments here. Sometimes we Malaysian take this for granted. I have experienced this before when I went to study in other part of the world. I got so frustrated when it tried to pet a stray cat on the street, they just run and disappear. That's when I realized that cat in Malaysia is special.
I can't tell if the cats in Malaysia are happy or not but one big difference between the stray cats in Malaysia in comparison to the stray cats in Japan or Korea is that the stray cats in Malaysia are not afraid of people. The cats won't run away if you touch them and sometimes they might rub their face on your leg. Japan and Korea stray cats on the other hand would run away real quick if you get too close to them.
Yeah stray cats in Japan must be afraid of people. Thank you for your comment😊
Thank you for opening our eyes about stray cats here. We never feel privilege like you feel. We never notice and appreciate having stray cats in out streets. We just love to feed them and that's all.
And we just love Malaysian saying "We just love to feed them and that's all."😊 Thank you.
What an interensting point of view and observations from Japanese who really love cats. I enjoy your content and will take cat's welfare more seriously than before. Thank you for saying this!
Cats welfare😁 Thank you for your comment!!
Besides cat food and water, my family also put a litter box for stray cats to poop...Malaysian hospitality is strange sometimes 😂
haha. indeed, but our malaysian hospitality is one of the best nonetheless.
that's very kind of your family to consider litter box. my family would transfer the poops to under the tree outside of the compound (where people are very unlikely to take shade and thus step on them), sprayed the 'old site' with febreeze and the likes, as a way to 'educate' visiting cats where they should do their business. worked majority of the time.
wow, that's on another level of treatment 😂
@@bgtcsjm cats are adorable although their 💩 is among the worst 😂😂😂
@@ichaa6159 yeah cats especially female are good learner but male cats always like to piss randomly to mark their territory 😄
@Ray Pak Wow that is an outstanding hospitality!! Thank you for sharing😊
Damn this dude knows more about my own country than me...
cats is the most beloved animal by our Prophet Muhammad pbuh.. when a cat is coming to us, that is like a test from God, either you want to cherish that animal, or be hard with that animal. Even we know actially that cat actually dont want any food, but just to test wether we have a simply good heart or not.. love cats huhuhu
Wow thank you for sharing another interesting thoughts😊 I would get nervous if I start thinking they are testing me...
I love feeding stray cats as one way to destress, it is therapeutic.
Nice video! Ganbatte! 💪
Yeah it is a type of animal therapy😊 Thank you!!
Cats lover family.. That is Malaysian.
Yay😊 Thank you for your comment!!
I've been watching your videos on and off. After this one, I feel like watching a professional documentary about cats in malaysia. I love your voice and the pace. Were you a professional voice over in Japan? Because I'm reading the subtitle, I feel like reading a soulful book and your voice is soothing like the sound of gentle waves at a beach.
You earned a subscribe from me. I enjoy getting your perspective of the land I was born in. I dreamt of going to Japanese cat cafe but after this video I'm keeping the dream of going to the island in Japan with cats roaming freely.
More of this please and less of our food. We know our food is off the chart 😆
Thank you for your warm comment and subscribing😉 I'm so honored to read about your comments on my voice.
just only 2 days ago, me and my mom saw a cat who wanted to "steal" a fish from one of the stalls that sold fishes in wet market that we often go to every sundays. but we had bought fishes for ourselves, so my mom decided to buy each of the cat a fresh fish and the seller said, "nah, no need to pay me, i sell them to you for free". ig he knew that my mom wanted to feed the cat, and both being adamant to pay and give for free..eventually, my mom gave up 😂 and said thank you to that kind hearted man.
the cat ended up fighting for the fishes despite we placed them separately tho 😂
also, agreed with the trash collecting system, i wish government paid more attention to these issues tho. and also us as society play a more active part in throwing and recycling the trash more efficiently
In Malaysia if you like to have the stray cat as your house pet, simply take them and put a collar on. Normally it would be easier for kittens since you can potty train them.
The baby kittens at TTDI were gone when I revisited so they must have found their home😊 Thank you!!
I beg to differ. I've been rescuing stray cats in PJ for decades. Many cats are in anything but good circumstances - having not enough to eat, drink dirty/toxic water, frequently get sick, are hunted by packs of stray dogs and injured by humans or become roadkill etc. Most stray cats live a miserable life and in my area live on average under 2 years (ranging from a few months to 4+ years). The problem is many people who think they are taking care of cats simply by feeding them (junk mostly, sad to say) don't really care what happens to the cats in the longer term - since the cats when they get very sick will just hide away to die. I have 6 cats in my house - all rescues (4 abandoned) and a few of them were constantly injured and being chased by stray dogs while outside, and this is in a relatively safe residential area. One lady I know has personally rescued over 100 stray cats (and counting) in a small section of PJ alone and has kept 80+ of them in her house and a rented shop as she is petrified of releasing them back on the streets.
There is a total lack of effort to neuter/spay these cats so that there won't be even more suffering created. Plus, most animal welfare organisations are not much interested in helping the public with animal rescues and in my view mostly seem to focus on dogs. So, it's up to individuals to do it but how much can a small group of people do.
Thank you for sharing. It's not very easy and it will take a lot of time and effort but TNR process might be the only way to get things better.
@@SamuraiStayAtHomeDad Yes TNR/rehome is a must but unfortunately there is no government effort and surprisingly little that animal welfare organisations seem to be doing in many parts of the world including here. Also, the very hard economic times we're facing probably will last many more years - and this will make the situation for stray cats even worse including a lot more people abandoning their pet cats. I saw at least 10 abandoned cats with collar in my area these past 2 years - many more than pre-lockdowns.
Samurai dad, i really respect you for having such an interest and observation about stray cats in Malaysia. I guess no one really ponder about it. Its true that cats are easily seen every where in Malaysia. But do bear in mind some places won’t allow people to feed cats such as condo ( the management in my condo won’t allow to feed cats) and lrt or mrt stations. Anyway, i really enjoyed watching all your videos especially this one about cats. Well done👍
Thank you so much!! I'm so happy to hear this😊 Yeah MRT stations are super clean so I understand no cats allowed..
@@SamuraiStayAtHomeDad rapidkl actually did post their train station cats on their instagram. There are cats in LRT stations!
Visit Turkey and especially Istanbul. Cats are Sultans there. Anyway, being kind to animals beside human is part of Islamic teaching. Even our firemen are often called to rescue kittens/cats, dogs, snake, lizards...
Even snaks and lizards...wow!! Thank you for sharing😊
I love the story-telling element in this video, started with sentimental nostalgic memories, finally evolving into something wonderful to the eyes of the narrator ;-)
I really love cat it become so instinctive for me to just stop and pet any stray cats whenever i encounter them. To date, my house already adopting 5 stray cats ^_^
Wow! I never thought this normal environment is special things to u and japanese..nice to know this..thanks samurai dad
Happy you liked it!! Thank you😉
i got 30 cats... they stay at home with me.. i live in landed /village area.. so once/twice a week i let them roam around.. would love to let them out everyday but i think its not safe because snake, lizard and boar are around my area.. plus its a hassle to collect them in the evening after play time over.. haha because they are many.. i think i have to find the balance of letting them living free, happy and keeping them safe at the same time..
Wow 30 is a lot😳!! Thank you for sharing.
The cats are so lucky to meet you and your family. Thank you for feeding them. I live in Tokyo (near to Shinjuku) and actually in my area there are a lot of stray cats. My family and I also feed them everyday. They come like clockwork. 6am breakfast, 12pm lunch and 7pm dinner😅 We’ve been doing this for a long time and our Japanese neighbors also feed them as well. But they are very shy and scared of humans. They don’t come near to us and don’t allow us to pet them. I always tell my husband they’re really Japanese.😆
Thank you for being nice to Japanese cats😊
I truly like your content especially this one, you make my day happier😊
Wow I'm pleased to hear your comment. Thank you so much😊
I even see cat visiting Watson in lotus mall, may be it went to wrong place to ask for food. Nobody chasing the cat away but allow it to shop around. So cute.
That is so cute. Even in malls😊 Thank you!!
As a person who lives in Malaysia, i can confirm cats here are hella nice but they do beg you for food if you eating at an outdoor restaurant.
What an insight! In my neighborhood, there are always people who feed stray cats 😊 Last year i moved to another place. There’s always one cat who often wandering around our house. We feed her out of sympathy. Eventually she is now literally the cat boss in our house 😂 Anyway, I never thought that this kind of gesture could actually makes people ponder 😁
Your house must be very comfortable for the cat!! Thank you for sharing😊
Waah thank you for being positive about Malaysia! There are 3 cats living here around my apartment they're being taken care really well by the other residents Jojo a stray Mao a housecat and Ova another house cat whenever my father is home we go down to feed him and Jojo lives at the mini food shop at the H1 lobby! The shop uncle feeds him and even gave Jojo his own bedroom!!🤣🤣
初めまして。
マレーシア移住予定で、この動画を何回も見ている者です。
さて、今日のヤフーニュースに、「ネコを外に出してはいけない意外な理由 “驚異的な狩猟能力”が与える生態系への影響」という記事がありました。
それを読むと、日本で野良猫を減らそうとしているのは、生態系への影響や感染症の予防も考慮してのことだと思われます。
ぜひ記事を読まれ、できればコメント欄か概要欄に注釈を追加していただけませんか?
初めまして。ご意見いただき、ありがとうございます。
記事と動画を見ました。考えさせられることがたくさんありますね。
bruh you just gave that cat a whole pack of temptations treat! that cat is the happiest cat on the world.
Thank you for your comment😊
Omg I almost cried watching this… 😭 This is the にちじょう we Malaysians take for granted and don’t notice, because to us it’s always been ふつ。I really love cats and have my own Neko with me at home. His name is Baku. This video really made me happy. ありがとう!!╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
ありがとうございます🥰
To be super honest this is my first time watching about cats in my country, I'm a bit surprised because i never ever think about the stray cats it never occurred to me but yah we try to feed stray cats because we are not able to take care of them so the least we could do is feed them.
our best regards from street cat lovers
🙏
Thank you for watching and leaving your comment😊
We Malaysian loves Cat so much to the point that we've named a City as Cat in bahasa melayu. You can say we love cats very much
of course, there are issues, and problems with stray cats, ecologically, etc etc, but I lived my whole life seeing cats everywhere, I think I would have a very hard time dealing with not seeing them all over the place. Even now at my backyard there's a family of cats (1 dad, 1 mom, 3 kits) that we do feed regularly because, well, you just dont let a cat go hungry, ESPECIALLY if the cat comes to your house. My grandma says they bring blessings :O
If u love cat..please come to east malaysia..call kuching city or cat city..in sarawak..nya...😺😺
It's always on the top of our list of places to visit...kuching!! Thank you for your comment😊
My cats parent were all stray cats. Now having their third generations. I took them in and provide them with proper food and medications. M happy having them around.
In the high school, i live in the dormitory. There are few stray cats roaming around that place. I often pet and playing with them whenever i felt stress. I'm a cats lover but my family doesn't allow me to keep them.
I live in KL and every street cat is like a pet cat. You can just walk over and scratch a tummy.
There are many different groups of cat lovers practicing TNR, some also help to relocating cats, help them to get shelter. I just adopted two stray cats recently.
They are the angels of earth!!!
Yeah🥰
Thx for your love to small animals 🥰👍
Thank you for watching and leaving your comment😊
We Malay loves cat, u will see a lot of cats in Malay areas especially at the villages, you will rarely see dogs, that's why the cats looks happy they can roaming freely without worry and threaten by the dogs
Yeah they all look very relaxed😊 Thank you for your comment!!
Thank you. You have taught me a simple but valuable lesson.
Pleased to hear you liked it. Thank you too😊
I just moved to Sabah, which is east Malaysia. And I realized that over here, there are so many stray dogs instead of cats. However, all of these stray dogs are very kind & not aggressive at all which surprised me.
Cat is THE BOSS in malaysia..they can sleep anywhere they want..do whatever they want..play anytime they want..nobody dares to disturb...EXCEPT OYEN...the orange colour cat..🤣🤣😂😂😁
this is such an interesting side of Malaysia . as a Malaysian i must say i often takes this simplest things for granted until a foreigner points it out . it's true tho i feel like at least in every Malaysian household , they would have at least 1 pet cat (or used to)
since I live in a terrace here in Malaysia, alley cats from behind my house would gather if they hear me open the door ^^ I feed them mostly leftovers like chicken and fish from my dinner (of course I remove the sauces). it's not just stray cats that enjoy the feast, house cats with collars also join!
Now to think of it he is right. Cats here are not scavengers.
I too carry a bottle of cat food in each car I have. It's become a habit to feed whenever the opportunity allows. Near my office there are tiny piles of kibbles everywhere.
Sometimes I don't have to feed them as I can't compete with another soul who carries wet food and going around feeding out of his car near my office.....but it's heartwarming to see it. And we attend to dogs too who recognises certain cars and wags their tails furiously at the prospect of getting their food for the day. And the dogs don't refuse cat food either 👍
Thank you Malaysians.... from a Malaysian with 5 cats of his own. 3 of them were stray babies.
Thank you for sharing. Ya it's heart warming just seeing the pile of kibbles😊
I was thought by my mom since I was a kid, that feeding a stray is like giving out good karma to the world, similar to giving out a donation. We share our rezeki (blessings), in the hopes that more rezeki will come back to us. In this sense, I choose to share mine with strays who do no wrong in this world and are just here to eat and lie in the sun 😄
many people feed the stray cats in Malaysia and many organisation and community sometimes rescue them
Thank you for sharing. Hope more cats in Malaysia get happier😊
Thank you for sharing your perspective towards start cats in Malaysia vs Japan…very refreshing.
One of the main reason why stray cats in Malaysia live good life beside Malaysian Muslim love of cat is because Malaysia weather is favorable to cats. In Japan, cold winter will probably kill them.
What motivated us to feed a stray cat because in Islam we believed if we feed them, the cat will pray to God to bless people who feed them and if stray cat come to our house they coming with angel and if we feed them, the angel will pray to God to bless the residents in the house
interesting video. i guess that is because we are taught to respect difference since small.
Thank you for sharing. I would share with my kids😊
