Piak

Piak, which means ''petite'' in Thai, was found alone and crying near the factory of one of Scad's corporate sponsors, shivering in the rain. As the kitten was so small and thin, she was taken home by kind Khun Shosun who was able to care for the kitten until she was fully vaccinated and old enough to come into the Scad adoption program. Piak is a very friendly and playful kitten who loves people and gets on well with other cats. She is sterilised and vaccinated.

Luang

Chocolate point Siamese-looking kitten Luang, meaning ''Yellow'' in Thai, was rescued during a community outreach programme at a temple. Many of the cats in the area were suffering from cat flu and sore eyes and received on site treatment for their conditions. Several, including Luang, were also taken into the Scad cat adoption programme. Luang has been sterilised and has started her vaccinations.

Dahlia

Young female cat Dahlia was rescued during a community outreach programme at a local temple. Many of the cats in the area were suffering from cat flu and sore eyes and received on-site treatment for their conditions. Several, including Dahlia, were also taken into the Scad cat adoption programme. Dahlia is an extremely affectionate and good natured cat who loves cuddles! She is sterilised and has started her course of vaccinations.

Nod

Nod was rescued along with his two siblings, Blink and Wink, from a box containing 15 other cats. While the other cats in the box were all old enough to be sterilised and immediately enter the Scad adoption programme, Nod and his brother and sister needed some extra TLC in foster care where they could be nursed back to health. Now older and stronger, Nod is looking for a home! He has started his course of vaccinations.

Kev

Kev the puppy was found dumped outside the Scad dog centre a few days after Shade, Short-Short and Somnig, who are though to be his siblings. Kev was likely kept a little longer because he was male, but he too started to develop mange and when abandoned he was also limping on one leg. Aside from a few skin problems, Kev was otherwise in good health and so was taken into the Scad adoption programme. He has started his course of vaccinations.

Somnig

Little Somnig found dumped with her two sisters outside the new Scad dog centre one evening. She was tired, hungry and showing the early signs of the skin condition mange, but was otherwise in good health and so was taken into the Scad adoption programme. Somnig means ''sleepy'' in Swedish, as when she first came to Scad she was very sleepy! Now she's wide awake and looking for people to cuddle and play with her! Somnig has started her course of vaccinations.

Kosmo

Kosmo was dumped with six siblings at the Scad front gate when he was a young pup, and has since grown into a handsome and friendly young dog who loves to play. Kosmo is very affectionate and loves people, as well as getting on well with other dogs. Kosmo is vaccinated and has been sterilised.

Lyca

Young puppy Lyca was rescued along with her sister Blondie from a temple near the Scad dog centre. She was found suffering from mange with large bald patches on her body and a high fever. She has now made an excellent full recovery and her fur has all grown back beautifully. Lyca can be shy with strangers at first but once she knows you her cheeky, playful character comes out. She is vaccinated and will soon be sterilised.
