  • What Ginger wants

    This is what Ginger wants – he wants to be one of the nanny-cats. I haven’t done right by Ginger, depriving him of his rights, liberties and his simple desire of being a nanny-cat, so I’m sorry, Ginger. We will gladly welcome you as a nanny-cat as long as you don’t spray in the house,…

  • Ginger’s Operasi Kencing Day 3 – the magic happened!

    Last night, Ginger spent all evening with us until we went to bed and he went back out to his patio kingdom (which has been the norm for many months now). Ginger seemed extremely happy after the visit to the vet yesterday, even with the second visit (where we failed to draw his urine). We…

  • Ginger’s Day 2 – to the vet’s for a thorough check-up

    1.30pm: Ginger was still squatting and straining. The amount of urine output had not improved from yesterday. Also, I didn’t know how to palpate his bladder to check if it is enlarged, so I had already decided last night that I would take Ginger for a more thorough and complete check-up at his regular clinic…

  • Operasi Kencing Day 2 (Ginger’s FIC)

    I spent all night yesterday looking through my records (they are all in this blog, actually) on Bunny’s and Cow’s FLUTD episodes in the past, dating as far back as 2010. The senior vet who attended to Cow in 2016 mentioned the research done by Jody Lulich, who, among other things, recommended a diet change.…

  • Operasi Kencing for Ginger

    I’ve been reading up on Feline Idiopathic Cystitis, which is what Ginger has. There are lots of suggestions on what we can do to reduce the stress that our cats may be facing and also to get them to drink more water. I’m doing these right now. I bought this last time for Pole and…

  • Ginger’s 4pm emergency trip to the vet’s again

    I was monitoring Ginger like a hawk all afternoon. He got everything that he wanted. I sat with him at the patio. I sat with him on the sofa. By the way, that’s his wart, which is harmless. He seemed very relaxed and was no longer straining to urinate. But he still hadn’t urinated for…

  • Ginger’s 3pm update (the FIC)

    It is 3pm now. Ever since waking up from his nap, I have not seen Ginger squatting and straining to urinate. I suppose this is good. But I also have not seen him urinated yet, or maybe I missed it when I was feeding Bunny and clan. The trouble is, I cannot confine Ginger in…

  • Cow’s seizures

    Cow Mau had been seizure-free for a month until yesterday. Just when I was about to serve lunch, he suddenly flipped on his back and sprayed urine. It lasted about 2-3 seconds. Then, he got up and ate his lunch heartily. I quickly contacted the vet to see if Cow needed to be brought in…

  • Ginger’s ultra-drama (rushed to vet at dawn – FIC)

    It happened early this morning. I let Ginger in for breakfast but instead of eating, he made a beeline to Tab’s litter box to “urinate”. Then, he squatted again at the bathroom drainhole, and again at the litter box. Something was definitely wrong, so I quickly checked and to my horror, there was NO urine…

  • Ginger-Drama!

    Yesterday afternoon was totally chaotic! While everywhere else was peaceful… Tabs was on her favourite chair doing nanny duty. Cleo was back on her bed and not attempting to snatch anyone’s place. Cow Mau was at his favourite pillow at the apartments. Bunny was back on his favourite chair! Indy’s new place is the Blue…

  • Neutering aid for 1 cat in Bandar Sri Damansara (Durra Sabreena bt Shaiful Bahari’s)

    We have provided an aid of RM100 for the neutering of this cat. Ms Durra is a new applicant. This rescue was aided by her younger sister too. We noticed a stray cat roaming our neighbourhood occasionally in a pregnant condition. Though we have seen the kittens once in a while it seems like they…
