  • Tutor Tabs

    Tabs, what can we offer you to be Smurfy and the Greystoke Kittens’ chief tutor? We don’t want the kittens to take after Ginger and start spraying all over the house, so can you take over as tutor/governess, please? We will “pay” you in Primal treats, will that do? We bought this rattan basket for…

  • Day 19 (The Greystoke kittens) and Smurfy!

    All is well! Rio (I think?) really likes to look out of the condo. Every time I lift up the curtain, he will look at the “world” with big round eyes! There he is again…looking with his big round eyes! I wanted to take the kittens out for a dose of morning sun today, but…

  • Smurfy’s favourite spot for sunbathing

    …is here! He just loves napping in this wooden sink! At other times, it’s “follow the mentor”. Just now, Indy escaped and the moment Ginger saw Indy, he ran to hide. Smurfy didn’t know why, so he just stayed where he was. Indy went towards him and Smurfy tried to says hello and be friends,…

  • Day 17: Minnie teaches the kittens

    This morning, Minnie taught the kittens how to use the litter box! Breakfast for Minnie first. The kittens have been coming to sniff at the food too. Training them to get used to the smell first. At 4 weeks, they can start on solids. And normally Minnie does not use this litter box, but today,…

  • A tribute to two people on Father’s Day

    On this Father’s Day, I would like to pay tribute to two role models in my life, my father and my grandfather.   Thank you, Pa, for teaching me by example to be very hardworking, to take pride in my work and to “berkhidmat kepada negara”. My father was a man of very few words,…

  • A discussion on Cow’s pawing problem

    After the last treatment, Cow stopped pawing. The medication was very effective. Cow is still on Orozyme on a daily basis, sometimes even twice a day. But the pawing started again yesterday. So I had a discussion with the vet today since I was at the clinic with Pole, Minnie and the kittens. Cow has…

  • Pole’s kidney readings (maintained)

    I suppose it would have been too much to hope that the readings would go down.  After all, Pole is already at Stage 3 of the chronic kidney disease and we know she is deteriorating. So, I suppose “no deterioration” is already good news. Pole’s creatinine today is 414 (previous was 426, so it’s not…

  • The kittens’ gender!

    I would like to invite you to guess their gender.  We know for sure today because the kittens went to the vet’s for deworming.  All weighed and dewormed. All good. What are their respective gender? Who is the heaviest of them all? Here are today’s photos, after the visit to the vet’s. Oh, of course…

  • Rio opens his other eye!!!

    After 3 days, Rio finally opened his other eye this afternoon (just now)! This morning, it was still closed. Tightly shut. But the other eye was big, round and bright. We bought Smurfy his very own rattan basket. Just wanted to support the rattan goods maker. It’s a dying skill and yes, everyone is trying…

  • More dehydrated treats (for dental health)!

    I also bought Cubgrub’s dehydrated raw chicken treats. Everyone went CRAZY over it! It’s pure dehydrated raw chicken, from Cubgrub. My priority would still be to give them chunks of meat to chew. I bought gizzards two days ago (will tell you the story later). I also bought chicken breast meat and beef cubes. As…
