Man’s Business Slows Down, Works Extra Part-Time Job To Feed Stray Cats

Many of us love animals, but some of us may not be willing to make major sacrifices to look after them.

This man in Malaysia however, truly went out of his way to take care of the cats around him.

When his business started to slow down, Mohamad Azhar Alias, 43, took on a part-time job just to afford extra food for the stray cats he regularly feeds.

Has 18 cats at home

Azhar used to work as an HR executive, but quit his job in 2005 to start a bakery with his wife.

The income from the business allowed him to feed 18 cats. He also fed stray cats as well.

Sadly, their business has been slow recently, reported Harian Metro. Thus, Azhar decided to take on a part-time job cleaning roads so he can continue to feed the strays.

… I decided to work as a road cleaner with hopes that it can cover the cost of the cat food, especially for the cats at highway rest areas that no one looks after.

He added that so far, he feels satisfied that he can help them and will continue to do so for as long as he can.

On top of that, he occasionally travels up to 30km away from his house, just to feed other cats.

Even when he had a fever, he continued to travel just so his furkids don’t starve.

Apart from feeding them, he also buries cats that were killed in accidents giving them a proper place to rest for eternity.

Dedication to animals is touching

In a world where many stray animals are abused, Azhar’s dedication is not just touching, but inspiring as well.

We hope that his kindness has moved your heart too.
