STZ

STZ is named
after two cats

Seol and Tol. Both were strays.

How we found Seol and Tol

Seol came home in 2013, and Tol in 2021.

Seol was a stray in Noryangjin. She kept crying and waiting outside the front door, so in the end we opened the door and she moved in. She has tabby markings, but her white fur was so beautiful that we named her Seol, which means snow. As a kitten she caught feline panleukopenia and nearly died, but she pulled through. She is a true survivor.

Seol led to a Tumblbug crowdfunding project with BOCA, the board game club at Chung-Ang University that the CEO belonged to. Making that project a success was the first time the CEO planned something commercially and delivered results.

Tol was abandoned in front of an animal hospital. She was returned by adopters three times because she was not all black and had white fur on her belly. So we took her home. Her name comes from tol, a single grain of rice. She has never been sick once and is remarkably healthy.
