  • The Sunny Cats!! (from Rozita Halim)

    If you’ve been following this blog, you might remember the Sunny Kittens! They were rescued by a student when they were left in a box by the roadside in KL. The kittens were brought to me and we (meaning Bobby, all the cats and me) fostered them until they were ready for adoption. I called…

  • Portrait time!

    These are the first few photos taken with my new camera. Why new? You won’t believe this, but after my camera was repaired (and it was working fine), I was told my battery had warped so badly that I cannot use it anymore or it would leak anytime and destroy my whole camera. So I…

  • Welcome to Heidi’s playground!

    We’ve got it all figured out now. Failing to get a place in the patio and kitchen, Heidi has now declared that the playground is hers. Yes, the entire playground. All of it. And when you step into the playground, Heidi runs from “miles away” and greets you warmly and joyfully. She is an exemplary…

  • Oh no! WHO bit this hole?

    I was about to go to work yesterday morning when I saw Daffodil (yes, Daffodil!) mooching around the two bags of Equilibrio in the kitchen. We are staying in an old house, so the storerooms were built really small at that time. I have no place to store the catfood so it would have to…

  • Another change of taste

    My brood, inside and outside, LOVE Monge. There’s no two ways about it. They love Monge and that’s that. It’s just me who wants to give them a variety of foods. So a friend asked me to try Avoderm. Avoderm contains carrageenan, by the way. So does Natural Balance. But Monge has no carrageenan. It…

  • Lester Hiew’s adoptions (how he does it)

  • Meetings of great minds

    The senior patio members. Seniority is by age.  For once there was no clash of the titans! Instead, it was a peaceful gathering of alpha minds! They seldom ever sit so near each other. I figured it must be either (a) the rain, or (b) watching the close-knit relationship of the patio family through the…
