Despite his age and recent health problems, Nana still visits his late former owner, Ab Aziz Ismail, whenever he can. Although he doesn't make the trip as often as he used to, the villagers in his hometown still recognize him and ask his family about him.
According to Ab Aziz's son-in-law, Norhazlin Mohamat Nozi, Nana was always a healthy and active cat until he was involved in an accident at the end of 2021. Nana returned home with a bloody mouth, and the family immediately took him to a veterinary clinic for treatment.
Although the vet gave him a clean bill of health, Nana hasn't been as active since the accident and spends most of his time sleeping.
Despite his recent health problems, Nana remains a beloved member of the family, and they are grateful for the years they've spent with him, "Nana has been with us since birth and was Ab Aziz's pet until he passed away in July 2018 due to kidney complications," Norhazlin said. "We're just happy that Nana is still with us and hasn't run away."
Aside from his trips to the cemetery, Nana enjoys spending time on a swing, which was Ab Aziz's favorite spot.
What a touching story! Nana is a reminder of the love and devotion that pets can bring to our lives, and his story continues to inspire others to cherish their furry friends.
