  • 4 ways to help animals

    I thought this article is so simple and straight to the point: http://www.care2.com/causes/4-ways-to-help-homeless-cats.html (it applies to dogs too!) In summary: 1. Neuter your own pets. 2. Adopt pets, don’t buy. 3. Support sources that neuter at a low cost. 4. Support TNR programmes. With the revised RM150 subsidy for the neutering of street dogs (for cats, it…

  • And what are the escape artists up to now?

    To my relief, Indy has NOT tried another escape…so far. I think he has learnt that it’s not possible to use that escape route anymore, what with his trimmed nails and the removal of that “launching pad” shelf. Still, we decided to let the three non-Cow Family members have a breath of fresh air outside…

  • The Patio Family brought back “food” again

    This morning, luckily my husband went out to the garden before I did. The Patio Family had brought back “food” again, and this time they left it right outside the patio. It was another dead snake. Sobs… There must be a nest somewhere and I’ve already alerted the neighbours previously. Surprisingly none of the neighbours…

  • Photo updates of Raven

    Do you remember Raven? She’s the little black kitten who came on her own to Bunny’s Place late one night and refused to leave. She was full of mange then, and barely 2 months old. Raven stayed with me (with Bosco as her “mentor”), her mange healed completely (thanks to a spot-on and daily application…

  • Please be careful: All caregivers of black cats

    Dear Friends, Yesterday, I received a call from an unknown number. It was a man with a very loud voice and he sounded very desperate. He spoke in Cantonese and it sounded like he was asking if we had cats for adoption. I said no and cut him off as I did not have a…

  • An uneventful night

    Ever since the Sabah incursion escalated into what it is now, we’ve been praying for “uneventful days”. “No event” is GOOD. So every time my daughter, Ming-Yi, sends a text that says, “All is well in Kunak”, it IS a cause for celebration. The moment is all we have and we pray for peaceful moments…

  • Bunny’s paw

    Being FIV+, Bunny has always taken longer than the ordinary cat to heal from any ailment. After 5 days of antibiotics (Clavomox and Metronidazole), Bunny can finally place his paw on the ground and walk on all fours. (Of course he chased the cockroach two nights ago too…shh!)  The right paw is okay now, but…

  • All quiet at Bunny’s Place until…

    All afternoon, Indy was fast asleep on my table. The morning attempt must have totally exhausted him. Then, it was dinner time…  Pole is all muscle, isn’t she?  Her brothers, on the other hand, are…”prosperously endowed”!  Indy is also all muscle. This explains Pole and Indy’s agility. It’s all in the muscles. After dinner, everyone…
