  • The day after we uploaded this video, Dotti passed away in the early hours of the morning. We did everything humanly possible, and she fought so hard, but her body just couldn't survive.
    Our cats are not our "pets," they are our family - part of our souls. We are devastated to have lost 3 in such a short time, and at such a young age.
    We'll be back to more Sumatra-related content in the weeks to come, but for now, we are grieving. Thanks so much to everyone who has shown us support and reached out, it means so much.

    So sorry to hear this news guys. Losing pets are never easy but to see them decline before your eyes, trying to save them is double hard. Hugs from the UK.

      Thank you so much! Dotti was a tough little girl and fought so hard to stay with us, but just couldn't pull through. We were so lucky to know her, even if it was far too short a time!

    Aww, no! I was so hopeful by the end of your video seeing Dotti outside, able to walk and scratch the log. And then I read your description and learned of the sad news. I am so so sorry Carly & Agung. You have been through too much recently. It is devastating to lose one, but three! Triple the pain. A couple of months ago I did my best to save a village cat here and was having to force feed him too. It was exhausting and emotional. Take a much needed rest you guys. May all three of your beloved fur babies be together now and running free. Sending you all love 😻😿

      Thank you - we were so hopeful that day too. Really thought she had turned a corner. But the next day she was so weak she could barely walk. This has been our hardest month in Indonesia by far - and just really crossing fingers that the rest of the babies are ok! Really appreciate your words, it so helps to have people who understand that they are not "just cats"! xxx
