Month: July 2022

  • Thank you very much (July 2022 donors)

    Thank you very much to all donors and well-wishers for the continued support! In view of the very significant rising costs of food prices, including petfood, from this month onwards, we started a new project of extending our Food Aid to more shelters. Shelter animals are confined within the shelter and they cannot hunt for…

  • The daily visits to Bunny’s Place

    Every morning, Stargate is open and Minnie-5 would cross over to visit, play, explore and eat serai and Heidi’s grass. This morning, so far, Cleo has not done her warning war cry. You should be able to see all five of them here, with Ginger in the planter’s box and Indy and Cow in the background.…

  • In the afternoon

    Everyone was relaxing on a chair each. That’s Lynx and Robin (note the hooked tail). Rey on the left and Smurfy on the deck chair. Minnie seems to have taken over all of Uncle Ginger’s spots. This is one of Ginger’s favourite spots. We’re going to repair Vincent’s table for them. And we have moved…

  • How to make garbage enzyme

    For the sake of the cats, I’m going to relearn how to make garbage enzyme. I thought this site is pretty good: https://zenyrgarden.com/how-do-you-make-garbage-enzyme/ For those who might not have read my earlier post, it’s an option to control the odour in their sandpit. Another option, I just learnt, is to use activated charcoal.

  • Deodorizing a cat sandpit – an interim measure

    Ever since Minnie-5 moved to Ginger’s Catio, they use automatically went back to Tiger’s Sandpit to do their business. I left all four litter boxes (which they had happily used while under quarantine in the two-bedroom “apartment” upstairs) with the tofu litter in the catio but nobody used them. Everyone preferred the sandpit even though…

  • Where is everyone on a rainy day?

    It rained quite heavily this morning. Where is everyone? Cleo and Cow share the bed. Indy and Bunny, the condo. Tabs loves the baby mat. Ginger is in his basket inside the house. Minnie-5 are in the condo. Can you spot all of them? Smurfy and Minnie are on the highest platform, their penthouse. Minnie…

  • Updates on Cow & Bunny

    Cow stopped licking rocks the moment we started him on the Maltofer iron supplement. He is still on it now. Bunny started on the twice-daily Cisapride and Lactulose and we changed him to the Petdiatrics Maximus Pro GI probiotics. So far, his defecation has been good. Let’s hope this works. Nowadays, only Cow, Bunny and…

  • The difference between CNRM and TNR (republishing)

    This article was first published in April 2019 and again in January 2020. We are republishing it again as a gentle reminder to all applicants that our neutering and vaccination aid is prioritised for those who practise One-Street CNRM, with particular emphasis on the C=Care and M=Manage components. Our priority has always been to help…

  • Ginger and Minnie-5…and Cleo

    Yesterday’s breakfast! Robin demands to eat on the table because he must eat first! All five of them are in this photo – spot the fifth! Uncle Ginger being a bad example to the boys – teaching them how to break in by pushing the fiberglass netting and squeezing through. Morning exercise!! Stargate is the…

  • Rey’s possible sensitivity to Malaseb shampoo

    Ever since Rey came back home with a balding problems, the vet had prescribed a Malaseb shampoo bath every 5 days. Initially it seemed to be helping but lately, especially after the latest Malaseb bath, Rey seemed to be balding even more. The spot where I had applied the Advocate spot-on is also bald. In…

  • Bunny’s constipation – another enema

    It was just 11 days ago that Bunny had an enema, and today he needed one again. I saw him straining (no faeces was passed out) this afternoon. And for the past 3 days, I saw loose stools which I guessed was his, but I guess my guess was wrong. So I wasted no time…
