Month: October 2020

  • Heidi’s update – still a waiting game

    It was at 10pm last night that Heidi was willing to eat some food on her own. This morning, she came upstairs and jumped onto our bed at dawn, so that gave me some hope that her condition would improve. But she did not eat her breakfast this morning and is not interested in food…

  • Family support for Bunny

    Just now, another fight broke out in Bunny’s Place. Of course, Indy was involved (so what’s new?). But I think it was between Indy and Cow this time. I rushed in and found Bunny hiding. So I scooped him up and put him on the bed. Cow also came up and actually, so did Cleo (missed…

  • Heidi to the vet’s

    Heidi’s usual morning routine is to come upstairs and jump onto our bed in the middle of the night or at dawn without fail, every single day, but she did not do it this morning. Then, she did not want to eat breakfast. It’s not uncommon for Heidi to skip a meal, though. But I…

  • Bunny’s eye and some wordpress matters

    After two days on the plasma eyedrop, Bunny can now open his right eye and it does look better too! It’s not back to normal yet, but there is definite improvement, so that’s good. Also, there seems to be a glitch in this wordpress blog in that it does not send me notifications anymore when…

  • Lovely minis!

    Our grateful thanks go to Ms Wong Pei Ling for making these two beautiful minis of Jack and Happy for Ms Yvonne! Ms Yvonne has donated RM500 to our fund and RM500 to another organisation of Ms Wong’s choosing. Thank you so much, Ms Yvonne! They are so life-like! The minis are on the left,…

  • Bunny to the vet’s (eye injury again – Indy!)

    There was a war cry episode between Indy and Bunny last night. This afternoon, Bunny’s right eye was swollen and he was also squinting. So, it was off to the vet’s this evening. Indy is a big bully. I think he also picks on Bunny because Bunny is blind. The vet checked and Bunny’s right…

  • Conferences at dusk

    After taking a well-deserved long nap and a hearty dinner, the kittens held several conferences at the patio. This looks like a conference about the insects in the pebbles. I think it ended with Lynx eating one. This one is about Heidi’s medicinal herb. Now, don’t destroy the pots and the plants, please. Heidi needs…

  • The Boisterous Foursome….is back!

    We brought all the kittens home today. Firstly, our grateful thanks go to the kind adopter for reaching out to help me when I needed it most. I had not been well since mid-September and I was on the brink of a breakdown. Secondly, to all readers who offered support and words of comfort when…

  • A quiet afternoon

    The kind adopter sent me a video of the kittens and they are adjusting to their new environment now with the guidance of two “aunty cats”. For everyone who has given me supportive and comforting messages, I thank you from the very bottom of my heart for your kind understanding. Minnie started rejecting her kittens…

  • The Greystoke Kittens – to their new home

    It has not been an easy decision to rehome the Greystoke Kittens. But I know I don’t have the capability of looking after so many for the long term, so rehoming them would be better for them in the long run. Now that their vaccination schedule is completed and they are all solid, robust and…

  • The Greystoke Kittens – for adoption

    The Greystoke Kittens are now fully vaccinated and I am looking for loving forever homes for all of them. If anyone is interested in adopting any of them, to be kept indoors (since they have not been outdoors before), please do contact me at chankahyein@gmail.com. They are loving, of good temperament, active and playful and…

  • Neutering aid for 1 cat in Kuala Lumpur (Ng Wei’s)

    We have provided a full sponsorship of RM80 for the neutering of this cat. Mr Ng Wei is a new applicant. Dear Dr Chan, My name is Ng Wei and I’m a new applicant for this neutering aid program. Attached herewith the collaged images, a copy of application form and receipt for your reference.  Last month, I found…

  • The new Greystoke equilibrium

    So as it stands now, Minnie did come back for food, but she made it clear that she would only eat at the porch and does not want to be confined anymore. Ever since the kittens turned 4 months old, Minnie had already distanced herself from them. Smurfy The four kittens seem to be better…

  • Minnie’s escape attempts

    Minnie has not been happy being confined. Clearly, her “4 months” with her kittens is up and she wants to be a free spirit again. She was not able to escape through Bunny’s Place because we closed her entrance into Bunny’s Place from the downstairs bathroom. But this morning, she tried something else. As far…
