  • Minnie stays indoors for a few hours

    It rained this afternoon, so everyone came inside the house. We decided to keep the catio door open so everyone can have free in-out access. This way, coming into the house won’t seem like such a privilege or a forbidden-fruit event. The forbidden fruit always tastes sweeter, as you know. After the rain, everyone went…

  • Smurfy’s morning exercise!

    Here’s Smurfy doing his daily morning exercise! We have ordered the lookout to be installed above Stargate2, but will have to wait for a few weeks for it to be ready. There will also be a cat tree leading up to the lookout.

  • The dawn INVASION of Minnie-5!!

    Even yesterday, Lynx and Robin had discovered how easily they could open the fiberglass netting to come in. Well, this morning, all hell broke loose! Robin was the ring leader. He opened the fiberglass netting and slid in (since he IS the slimmest of all). This required him to push open the wooden door which…

  • The day Bunny stood his ground!

    Ryan came and decided he wanted to play in Bunny’s condo again. Watch the video! Bunny stood his ground and said “No, I’m not leaving my condo.”  So Ryan had to play with Bunny inside. A good learning experience for Ryan!

  • How did the boys cross over to Bunny’s Place?

    It started yesterday evening. Robin went over to Bunny’s Place and we don’t know how he did it. When we were in the kitchen, Robin popped up at the window (that’s from Bunny’s Place). Then this morning, when I woke up, Rey was already in Bunny’s Place. We don’t know how they got in. Stargate…

  • Dinner time for Minnie-5 and Uncle Ginger!

    It took some coaxing but Uncle Ginger joined Minnie and family for dinner this evening! Witnessed by Jayden! After seconds and thirds, all eventually sapu habis with Rey polishing up all the bowls!

  • Jayden and Ginger (more videos!)

    Gently does it….good boy, Jayden. And definitely good boy, Ginger!

  • The joys of playing in a cat condo!

    Ryan came this evening, paid his usual greetings to Cow, Cleo and Indy. Bunny was sleeping in the condo, so Ryan squeezed in to also greet Bunny and decided that the condo was a great place…to play in!! More fun than any jungle gym!

  • Minnie’s boys visit Bunny’s Place

    Last night, Uncle Ginger spent the whole night with Minnie and the boys at the catio. No fighting sounds were heard, so all was well. This morning, the boys managed to open Stargate and enter Bunny’s Place as well! We were in the midst of doing Cleo’s subcut when suddenly, we saw Lynx walk across…
