Rosie’s three suppers and breakfast
Last night, Rosie asked for supper…three times! Looks like she is making up for that one missed dinner on Saturday (when she had fever) and that’s indeed a good sign. This morning, Rosie was waiting for breakfast at the patio with everyone else. Ginger already had breakfast in the kitchen with Tiger and Tabs so he…

A kenduri and the cats disappear!
There was a kenduri on my road today and all morning, there were trucks going by and soon, lots and lots of visitors arrived. The cats were wary and stayed in the porch. In fact, Daffodil was smart, she was inside the house all day. However, soon, the kenduri started and they played loud music.…

Rosie eats her breakfast (“I protest in the strongest terms at being caged”)
Last night, Rosie was whining most pitifully in the cage. I was a little worried that she was holding her urination as the vet had said her bladder was full when we were there (which was at 7pm) and it was approaching midnight. Holding the urination for so long isn’t good, I thought. There was…

11.10pm: Rosie eats!
So Rosie was making a racket in the cage for quite sometime and I just had to let her be. It wasn’t Ginger or Daffodil accompanying her, but Timmy. But we did wonder whether Timmy is accompanying Rosie or just staking a claim on his cage… By about 11pm, I went to check on Rosie…

Rosie has a fever
Rosie did not come for dinner today, and I thought she was holed up somewhere due to the rain. I went to look and found her inside the big box in the porch. I thought she was afraid of the rain, so I brought a bowl of food to her but she wasn’t interested. After…

Willy’s visits!
Willy has been visiting often these days. He does drop in for breakfast and dinner on certain days, especially on weekends. He normally comes in from the garbage compartment and he makes sure I see him when I’m at the patio. But first, the PatioCats must be fed. I tried letting Timmy eat with everyone…

Cats don’t need luxury items
Yes, cats do need proper care and this includes veterinary care, medical treatment, good nutrition, enough space, etc. but they normally do not need luxury items as humans do. For example: A clean tiled floor on a hot afternoon is ideal for a snooze. Can you see Cow? He is inside here. Cow and Cleo…

Best Friends Forever: Tabbies United
Tiger and Tabs are the best of friends and you cannot help but think it has something to do with them being of the same colour. Look straight. Look right. Look left. Look intently… What are you both looking at, Tiger and Tabs? Oh….at this other tabby! Who is this tabby? A. Vincent B. Mr…

The art of cuddling Cow (without having to get a tetanus jab)
Carrying and cuddling Cow successfully without getting an ear bitten off or having to rush to the doctor’s for a tetanus jab is…an art. Step 1: Only do it if you are confident and have NO fear. Step 2: Scoop him up without hesitation, and in a quick semi-circular movement of both arms, from behind.…

A puppy rescue
Recently, we were alerted to a litter of abandoned puppies. We made some calls and a friend volunteered to rescue the puppies. Since no adopter could be found, PAWS agreed to take in the puppies as they were estimated to be more than 2 months old. Unfortunately, one puppy did not make it after two…
