Smurfy’s eating problem
Suddenly, since yesterday evening, Smurfy started getting too scared to eat. Before this, he was eating happily with his mother and brothers. But yesterday, someone he’s not so familiar with entered the room during dinner and that scared him off. After that, he just refused to eat. Sigh… And while some people tend to say,…

Ginger-Longkang….yes, again!
It looks like Ginger wants to make an escape every day after dinner. He did it again yesterday evening, slipped out in between husband’s legs when the latter opened Stargate2. Ginger simply comes from nowhere. He makes sure you do not see him or even know that he is planning an escape. Cats are empaths,…

Food Aid to Survivor Shelter
As announced earlier, due to inflation which has led to the rising costs of petfood, chicken and rice, we will try and reach out a little further to help more shelters. But in order to do so, we need to do some fundraising. If you’d like to help feed shelter animals, please write to me…

Is this Smurfy’s sister (Minnie’s daughter)?
If you remember two years ago when I first rescued Minnie and Smurfy, I’ve written that before the rescue, I had seen Minnie clutching two newborn kittens walking up the road. One was grey (most likely Smurfy) and one was a Calico. Minnie herself was SO small, she was a kitten herself. Then, Minnie brought…

Ginger meets Minnie and the boys!
We figured that if Minnie and the boys remember us, they should remember Ginger, right? Well, remembering is one thing, will they find him a threat now that the boys are all adults? There was only one way to find out. Socialite Minnie remembers Ginger! Well, we were so worried that Ginger would bully them? …

Updates on Minnie and the boys, feeding stories, etc.
It’s been a week since everyone was back! Robin’s diarrhoea has improved a lot! It’s amazing how effective Saccharomyces Boulardii is for Robin’s condition! Yesterday I thought the diarrhoea had completely stopped but this morning, I noticed a little bit again. Looks like it’s not over yet. Quite a stubborn one, I might say. Anyway,…

Fundraising: Food Aid to reach out to Survivor Shelter, Semenyih
With the escalating price of petfood and other foods (like chicken and rice), shelters are having a hard time sustaining their operational costs, especially in the area of food. Since we already have a Food Aid, we hope to reach out to certain shelters to help them out in these difficult times. Regardless of the…

Ginger-Longkang escapes again
It happened again today. Sigh. We had guests, the door was open, and Ginger escaped from the front door. He was outside for about an hour and I went to search for him but to no avail. Finally, I opened the door, and there he was, waiting in the porch. He even walked into the…

The solution to Robin’s chronic diarrhoea
Okay, so what worked for Indy did not work for Robin. And that is not surprising. Every cat is different. Every illness is different. Switching Robin’s diet to rabbit did not work. It did, for Indy, because Indy’s was a case of allergy which developed after having eating chicken for too long. Robin’s diarrhoea –…

The sad, sad “entitleMEnt mentality” of the human species
In Cantonese it’s called the “ying-koi” mentality. The “entitlement mentality” – the backlash that we have to endure when we are no longer able to help someone whom we have been helping before due to (1) lack of funds, (2) changes in policies or (3) violation of policies on the part of the recipient (especially…

Petfood Donation to MunMun Furry Sanctuary
An important announcement to all donors and especially those who have specifically donated for our Food Aid: We will no longer be making monthly petfood donations to specific shelters on a regular basis. However, petfood donations will still continue dependent on surplus fund availability. Our funds have always been prioritised for neutering. Thank you so much…

Minnie and the boys’ update (including Rey’s Malaseb bath)
It’s Day 5 today! Lynx wants to be the centre of attention! Smurfy’s wound is healing quite well. Ah, sorry for this picture, but it seems like the Saccharomyces Boulardii could be working. It’s no longer pure liquid stools, it is pasty now. Robin is still eating by himself in one room while the rest…
