  • Cow’s pilling rules

    Cow has issued the following pilling rules: He will swallow small tablets, but NOT capsules. Cow gives his 100% cooperation when it comes to eating his Metrogyl quarter tablet, but he totally objects to the curcumin (turmeric) capsule and the Coatex fish oil. He even  willingly lets me rub the Afta Med gel at the…

  • Tabs likes the bed too….

    Tabs comes in often now because she likes the bed as well. But she would have to wait her turn because at any one time, one cat would already be on the bed. Usually, it’s Pole or Cow. Cleo decided she is still “higher up” in her basket. By the way, Cleo owns the apartments…

  • Pole’s eating news

    After about 4 days of training Pole to eat RC renal wetfood, by yesterday, she was willing to eat it neat. But once in a while, she still requires some enticement in the form of AD, Primal sprinkles or Cindy’s mousse. I alternate these to keep it interesting for her. I would offer RC renal…

  • Smurfy should not suckle

    The vet advised that Smurfy should not be allowed to suckle Minnie because he already has teeth and it might cause puncture wounds and infection on Minnie. So far, Smurfy has not suckled again, so it’s okay now. But if he still does, we would have to separate them. Also, once Minnie delivers, the vet…

  • Smurfy suckles?

    Smurfy started suckling Minnie this morning…. I guess Minnie is producing milk now, so Smurfy decided to suckle her. This is the first time we noticed it. Today they did not get to come out to play as it was raining all morning, so they decided to huddle up together in the blue hanging basket.…

  • Minnie and Smurfy – out for more than EIGHT hours!

    Yes, Minnie and Smurfy were out in the patio for more than EIGHT hours today!! And Minnie did not make any attempts to escape too. Smurfy was of course playing and Minnie was relaxing in various spots, but made no attempt to escape. In fact, Smurfy finally went back to the condo by himself and…

  • The new bed – whose is it?

    I ordered a bed frame for Bunny’s Room and it finally arrived today (the story of the delivery is a long one and will be shared in my personal FB since it does not concern animals). It came in parts and is very easy to assemble. Guess who was the first to inspect it? Checking…

  • Minnie issues warning to Ginger

    This morning there was an incident at the patio. I did not see it but my husband related it to me. Smurfy and Ginger were in a playful brawl, but it was too close to Minnie. Minnie turned around and swiped at Ginger with a fierce reprimand. Ginger was totally caught by surprise and he…

  • Pole’s eating challenges

    Every CKD cat is different. So very different. Taking care of Vincent was very different from what I’m facing with Pole now. Firstly, Vincent’s creatinine readings was only around 240 or so. It never went any higher and yet, he was already in Stage 4 kidney failure when discovered. His kidneys were already “porous” and…

  • A pep talk with Mr Cow Mau

    Something happened to Cow yesterday and he got aggressive when I tried to feed him his medicine. So, a pep talk was in order. Cow is, in my opinion, our most sensitive cat. “Sensitive” as in being able to read minds and emotions accurately. And he is also very sympathetic and empathetic despite his fierce…
