Month: December 2021

  • Thank you very much (December 2021 donors)

    We wish to thank all donors and well-wishers for their kind and generous support throughout 2021. The year seems to have passed by so very quickly with many challenges for everyone. The number of neutering claims have dwindled tremendously, but we hope it will pick up next year. Meanwhile, we will continue providing food aid…

  • Cleo’s little bread-balls (starts on Renal-N)

    Cleo’s sneezing was still going on and off, so the vet suggested we start her on Cetirizine 1/3 tablet once a day. It’s an anti-histamine. Cleo does not need the Bromhexine and Nuelin anymore because her nose is not blocked. It is just a persistent on-off sneezing which hasn’t gone away. Today is Day 3…

  • Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays 2021

  • Emergency Petfood Donation to MunMun Furry Sanctuary

    The floods had disrupted the electricity supply to MunMun Furry Sanctuary for the past few days so he has not been able to cook for his dogs. Hence, our offer to help out with dogfood. Mun Mun’s shelter was not affected by the floods and his animals are all safe, but his water pump was…

  • Cleo’s day

    I did two rounds of nebulization yesterday and this morning, I only heard Cleo sneeze once. We also managed to pill her today…without any bloodshed or injuries on our parts. Cleo absolutely does not like her head being tilted, so she kept her head horizontally and I was able to open her mouth to plop…

  • Cleo is sneezing again

    I don’t know why this is happening. Cleo had already stopped sneezing yesterday but it resumed today. She is eating, but very little and she is being very finicky too. One meal has to be broken up into several small meals, with different types of food. I’m trying to keep it to Coco&Joe’s and Cubgrub…

  • Cleo continues to eat

    After last night’s welcome turnaround where Cleo finally started eating on her own (after having not eaten for three whole days), I was still a trifle worried that it might be short-lived joy again. But this morning, Cleo ate her breakfast. Of course she did not finish this amount since Cleo is a small eater,…

  • Cleo eats after a second nebulization

    This morning, about an hour after the nebulization, Cleo kept sneezing for about half an hour. I thought the nebulization is supposed to stop the sneezing, so why was the opposite happening? Wanting to be optimistic, I hypothesized that perhaps (hopefully), the nebulization has loosened up the mucous and the body is trying to expel…

  • Cleo’s condition

    Cleo is still not eating on her own. I have only managed to give a very small amount of pureed food three times a day. Her snorting has decreased, but her appetite is not back. This morning started with our disastrous attempt at giving her the two pills – it’s half a pill and another…

  • Cleo’s blocked airways

    Cleo was doing well yesterday morning – she was up and about, alert and eating quite well. But by evening, she could not eat again and had started snorting. She was also mewing quite a bit. This condition persisted until this morning, so we had to take her back to the vet’s again. Her airways…

  • Cleo is up and about, and eating!

    Cleo was already up and about at dawn this morning. The bleeding from the sinuses decreased last night and have now stopped completely. However, last night was a bit of a problem in the room. My plan was to keep the boys (Cow, Bunny and Indy) in the pantry for the night after the rain…

  • Cleo’s dental surgery

    Cleo’s dental surgery was supposed to be on Tuesday, but there was a vacant slot today, so it got bumped up. I also requested for an earlier slot since the mouth pain was causing her so much difficulty in eating. A five-day wait would have been very challenging, especially when she already had so much…

  • Cleo’s bald flanks – it took 12 years

    It’s been 12 years, believe it or not. Cleo’s been balding at the flanks for 12 years. It started when she was 2+ years old. I took her to see many vets over the years, but none could solve the mystery of her balding flanks so we just accepted it and left it at that.…

  • Cleo’s eating problem

    I don’t know if Cleo was traumatised after the car ride or vet’s visit yesterday, or is it because there is new renovation works going on around our house, but she refused to eat today. I had thought that with the treatment and painkillers, she should be eating better than before, but no, she did…

  • Cleo’s mouth pain and her kidney disease

    Cleo has been having mouth pain for sometime now.  It started a few weeks back, but it wasn’t frequent. Since she is very hard to handle, I’ve decided to put off taking her to the vet’s until it is absolutely necessary. She is stressed in the car as well. Of all our cats, Cleo is…
