Background:

Nino Sir was rescued on 18 June 2021 using a trap. We came across him on a few occasion. It seems like God put a burden in the hearts of 3 volunteers on different occasion to rescue him. The first was a year ago in June 2020 when we were searching for our lost dog Donn. The volunteer saw him on the roadside, stopped and fed him. He was hungry and sad. The second volunteer drove past him on another day and also saw that he was sad but had no idea where was his usual hideout and could not do much. The 3rd volunteer managed to meet him at his usual hideout. Hence a trap was set and we finally rescued him and answered to God’s prompting.

Personality:

Nino Sir seems to not have been touched by humans before. His usual feeder said that he will come forward to eat but will never allow to be touched. Will retreat. When we first touched him in the shelter he was a little unsure but within 10 min he allowed us to clean his face. He has skin problem but in no time, he will be handsome again. You will see it in his photos and hopefully you will be the next person whom God prompt to adopt him and give him a better life.
