Month: November 2019

  • Indy: another setback

    Indy has been refusing to eat even a little bit of Cubgrub for two days now and I was worried that he wasn’t getting enough of a balanced diet, so last night, I tried a bit of Primal for him, which he happily ate. This morning, I found loose stools in the sandpit. Looks like…

  • Indy eats grass

    Oh goody! It’s not wasted effort. Indy is eating the “Malaysian” grass (Heidi’s herb). He still likes serai, though. Second time spotted him eating. Really eating! I think we should bring in more of this grass/weed. Today’s stool report:  IF the stool on the right side is Indy’s, then that’s good. It is still blood-tinged…

  • We are on Boost’s Donation Tile this month!

    Thank you very much, Boost!  We have been selected to be on their Donation Tile again this month!! And thank you very much, in advance, to all donors from Boost!!

  • Will the real Indy-poop please stand up?

    I came home today and found really nice, healthy looking and firm stools NEAR Indy’s spot again. I scooped it up and took photos, hoping like crazy that it is indeed Indy’s poop. Today is Day 6 of the Metronidazole. Then, I fed everyone. Indy only wants to eat raw chicken fillet now. He doesn’t…

  • Neutering aid for 2 dogs in Cheras (See Chin Nam’s)

    We have provided a full sponsorship of RM260 for the castration of these 2 dogs.

  • WHO is pooping at Indy’s spot?

    This morning, I found four very well-formed and totally normal-looking stools between Cleo’s and Indy’s poop-spots in the sandpit. It was actually closer to Indy’s spot. Not wanting to get my hopes up high and be fooled again, I decided to classify it as “unknown” instead of attributing it to Indy. I didn’t even take…

  • A CNRM-cat at the National Zoo!

    Koo and his family went to the National Zoo yesterday and spotted a CNRM-cat! He shared these photos: See the ear-notch? It gives us great hope whenever we spot ear-notched animals on the street and in public places. It tells us that someone is neutering these animals, ear-notching them and hopefully someone is looking after…

  • Let grass be thy medicine – Heidi’s herb

    I decided to try planting Heidi’s herb again. The last time I did it, she refused to eat it. She still wanted to go out to her stash at the park, but lately, we noticed Heidi has been a little tired going to the park. Luckily we also have this same weed/herb in our garden,…

  • The raw deal – into the second month

    We are into our second month of 100% raw food for the cats. It’s been 5 weeks since we started on this project. For this month, my target is to reduce the “incentives”, which is Primal as toppings. We managed to bring down Ginger’s (obese) 6.5kg to 6.1kg in one month. However, the two days…

  • Let the poo speak!

    I’ve now become a poo-scrutiniser. Indeed, the poo is an indicator of our health and more so for Indy. So, what does his poo tell us today? Since yesterday, Indy didn’t want to eat Cubgrub anymore. He only wanted his raw chicken fillet. I give him what he wants because he probably has some tummy…

  • Indy: a setback

    Indy excreted a small patch of really runny and blood-tinged stools, discovered at 2pm today. Sigh… He didn’t have any new food today. The stools at 10.50am were just soft and now at 2pm, it’s all runny (but only a small patch). I’ve already discussed this with Indy’s vet and we will continue with the…

  • A subcut session

    Saturday is the day where all four of them get their subcut. I was home alone so it had to be a single-handed job. Indy’s. Pole’s. Surprisingly she was very calm today. Bunny Bun Buns – the easiest to handle. He takes a nap during subcut. I can even do a bottle change midway, so…

  • Fooled!

    I think I got fooled this morning. It probably wasn’t Indy’s stool (the promising firm and well-formed one). It was NEAR his poop-spot, but not ON his spot. Because I found blood-tinged soft stools AT his spot just now. Sigh….oh well. So much for that false hope this morning!  Should have known it was too…

  • Bushy White returns

    Oh no! After almost two weeks of no Bushy White sightings (ever since Ginger’s big fight with him which landed poor Ginger with his Avatar-Klingon nose), Bushy White returns to torment Ginger today. Yes, that’s him. Tabs is providing support. Tabs: I’m helping Ginger.  Tabs to Ginger: Let me know how I can help. I’ll…

  • Indy’s close shave

    Yesterday, I made a VERY wrong call on Indy’s diet. I erroneously thought that after one week on raw chicken fillet and Cubgrub Chicken, it might do Indy some good if I introduced a new food to him. Since everyone was on a trial protein rotation yesterday, I didn’t want to exclude Indy too. It…
