KUALA LUMPUR, April 30 -ââââÅ¡¬œ Fluffy Kassim, a five-year-old resident cat, is a favourite among visitors. Drawn to his size, fluffy coat and gentle demeanour, customers often pet and play with him, while those living and working nearby also drop by to see him at iVet in Sentul.Fluffy, a Persian and Maine Coon mix, is among several in-house feline donors relied upon by clinics due to the lack of dedicated animal blood banks in Malaysia.The case also highlights the growing issue of pet abandonment, with veterinarians urging the public to practise responsible pet ownership, including proper care, spaying and neutering, and long-term commitment.--fotoBERNAMA (2026) COPYRIGHT RESERVED
