A mother named Mrs. Nenden made the desperate decision to carry 20 sick cats in cargo bags—five cats per bag—because she had no other choice.
“I was kicked out of my rental house because they didn’t like seeing sick cats,” she said.
But Mrs. Putri’s Miki Rescue Home isn’t in a much better situation. Local authorities even handed her an eviction notice—a piece of paper with the words “PETITION FOR EVICTION” written on it.
They didn’t raise their voices, but their threat was clear:
“Move out, or we will get rid of these cats.”
Their reason? They claimed that too many sick stray cats in one place could spread diseases. And in truth, Mrs. Putri is currently caring for 250 sick and injured cats in her small home. But who could turn their backs on these poor animals?
Om Garvile – A ginger cat who survived five stab wounds from a satay skewer but had to have two legs amputated.
Dona – Burned with boiling water, leaving her back skin permanently damaged so her fur can never grow back.
Philipe – Scalded with hot oil and now requires regular laser treatment and chemotherapy.
Om Hitam – Left tied up, starved, and abandoned with no one to help.
Irma – A traumatized factory cat, covered in wounds and scars. When rescued, she was so terrified that she bit and clawed at the volunteers until they bled.
Some of these animals suffer from cancer, severe scabies, or have even lost limbs. And it’s not just cats. Mrs. Putri recently had to buy a dog that was about to be sold to a restaurant for slaughter. It was in horrible condition, but she couldn’t bear to let it suffer.
Now, with the eviction threat, Mrs. Putri is struggling to rent a new place. She’s cut back on medical care, relying only on herbal treatments.
There was even a time when she couldn’t afford veterinary care, forcing her to treat sick animals with herbs. But no matter how effective herbal remedies are, they can’t heal severe burns, cancer, or deep wounds.
“We’ve already moved into a tiny rental house. I had to leave town for work, and now my husband is taking care of them full-time,” she explained.
But why does Mrs. Putri keep doing this?
“If even the Prophet loved these creatures, surely saving them will bring blessings in the afterlife for me and my husband,” she said.

Mrs. Putri spends 10 million rupiah monthly just for food, and she needs 2kg of food per day to keep them fed.
