Cat Make Her Home on Top of HDB Sheltered Walkway

Most of the time whenever people pass by this area in Boon Lay, they will usually see this adorable looking cat walking along the metal bars near the top of this sheltered walkway. . 

Unlike other cats, this particular cat is the only cat fearful of staying on the ground. She seems to have a phobia for low altitude places. Apparently, this cat has made the top of this sheltered walkway her permanent home. She won't mix with other cats, will not come down even if it is meal time.

The cat don't look like she has a fear for human as she responses to strangers below her. When you are below her, she will make lots of noise just to get your attention. To show her affection, she will sometimes nudge her head on the metal pillars above you.

However, there are some minor problems with her staying on top of this sheltered walkway.

The nearby cat feeder has problem bringing food and water to the cat as she stubbornly refuses to come down from her hiding place. It is also too dangerous for her to climb up and bring food to the cat. 

The only solution which I heard from another cat feeder  is to "throw" the packet of food up to the cat. This will prevent the cat  from starvation,  the cat will happily finish her food on the top bars. 

But how to bring down the leftover food I wonder? The leftover food will have a bad smell after some hours. That's another reason why whenever you walk past this area, there is some smell in the air.

If she is sick, I wonder how will they be able to nurse her back to health? There's no way to bring her down unless you use force. Unless the cat change her mind to come down, we will still have to keep our heads up to look for her.  Hope won't get neck cramp...  

Sleeping Time

What you looking at?

the leftover food will probably stay up here

Dead Pigeons in Boon Lay Blk 210 and 215

Hi Boon Lay RC (Facebook),

I noticed there are many pigeons flocking betwn Boon Lay Blk 210 and 215 this morning.
There are also 2 dead pigeons birds lying on their road leading to the multi-storey carpark .

Few months ago, I have already feedback to Stomp about the population of pigeons flocking here,
but it seems that there are no actions taken by the Boon Lay RC or the AVA.

Taken on the morning of 14 March 2011 (Mon)
The birds are still there... hope the authorities can transfer them to P.Ubin or some Kampong



There are concerens about hygience since there are many children playing near the playground
where the pigeons feed and hang around. The exposed dead bodies can spread germs
and their droppings can be a health concern for the children there.

We wished that the relevant authorities in Singapore can seriously look into this matter.
The haze already making people sick and we do not want anther health issues coming up.

See pictures and videos below*

*Note:
The pics of dead birds are very gross, with intestines exposed.
