  • For cat TNRM-ers – this is a “drop trap”

    Shared by a rescuer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SydX7jnox8 It sure is easier than my ribbon method! Beware of the tail, though. It boasts of 4 advantages, but I think the part about trapping whole families, ie. “trapping the mum-cat without leaving the kittens behind” is a good point. Our disclaimer holds. My way: http://animalcare.my/2012/12/19/ladies-and-gentleman-may-i-present-mr-q-plan-d/ http://animalcare.my/2013/06/26/ladies-and-gentlemen-mr-zurik/ Our disclaimer also holds for the…

  • A healthful vegan diet (go meatless today and save some animals!)

    Now, whenever I speak about eating less meat, there will always be the counter arguments, ie. so-and-so is vegetarian but is so unhealthy and weak, so-and-so is vegetarian, practises yoga but dropped dead at 40, etc. Yes, there are always the exceptions. Nothing is fool-proof. Surely we know this. There is no elixir or secret…

  • More than a apple a day (another boost for a plant-based diet for humans)

    It’s all over facebook and it’s going viral, folks! World renowned nutrition authority, Dr Michael Greger, talks about how a plant-based diet can reduce the probability of many common diseases.

  • Spot the mesdames!

  • A quick-and-easy meatless meal

    Step One: See what you have in your little vegetable garden. Taiwan kau-keh….good stuff. The vege they put in otak-otak. Can do too. (Can someone please tell me the name of that vege!!)

  • Otto the tight-rope walker and Indy the Spider-Cat, and…

    Otto the Shrew is a regular visitor to Bunny’s Place, especially in the evenings. In fact, he is so agile, he even manages to get to the pantry and nibble on all the remaining kibbles without being caught by the 3 titans, Tiger, Tabs, Cleo or Pole. You’ve got to give credit to the Shrew…

  • Dinner at the patio

    Nowadays, it’s not Bunny’s Place making the dinner calls but the patio. At around 4.30pm, the Patio Family sends a representative to call for dinner. And since the call is made, Bunny’s Place is awakened and they too want to be fed. At Bunny’s Place, there is not much of a problem when it comes…

  • On a Wednesday morning, and would anyone like to adopt Heidi?

    The morning started with the horn-locking ceremony at the patio. This calls for… ….my brand new Daiso water-gun! The Russian quickly runs for cover behind Mr G. “Berani kerana benar”. Vincent stays put. Hooray! Rosie runs into the house to escape the war outside. The original Patio (Orange) Family runs in too. We are peaceful…

  • My new water gun

    We’ve bought at least 3 water guns and all are broken now. Either the cats pushed them down and the plastic cracked or they just started leaking. Then, I had a brainwave, why not just use a normal ironing spray? The type where you can adjust the nozzle to let out a thin sharp shot…
