Feeding Bunny and giving him a sunbath
I managed to feed Bunny one-and-a-half cans of Cindy’s baby food this afternoon for lunch. When I fed the other Super Seniors, Bunny mewed, but he was still lying down. I noticed he had urinated from the cage. So I cleaned him up, gave him a quick sunbath and fed him his lunch. During better…

Ladies and gentlemen, we present Samantha (Gerald helped)
So, thanks to the ball of raffia string and Gerald, we’ve invited Samantha into the house and will coax her to stay until after delivery (anytime from 3rd Feb to 10th Feb) and after she is spayed. It wasn’t exactly a difficult operation. Gerald came in, Samantha came in and pull the raffia string tied…

Some earthing for Bunny
This morning I saw that Bunny had urinated in the night. But he hasn’t changed his sleeping position all night. He seems to prefer sleeping on his right and he is in a lateral position so at least he is stretched out and I hope, more comfortable than before when he would either face a…

Bunny’s updates
After the Gabapentin kicked it, Bunny slept for more than 5 hours. It’s good that he can rest in a comfortable lateral position. But when I went in to check on him, he knows and he would let out a Bunny-mew. I made steamed tilapia for him for dinner, but he didn’t have the energy…

It could be as early as 60 days too (Samantha’s delivery)
I asked the vet about Samantha today and she said the gestation period could be as short as 60 days, instead of the standard 65 days. 60 days would mean 3rd February, but I still plan to catch Samantha earlier and put her inside the room upstairs. Samantha and Gerald are the very best of…

Bunny may have brain and intestinal tumours
We are back from the vet’s. According to the vet, most likely Bunny has brain and intestinal tumours. This can happen with old age especially with the added FIV+ condition. The brain tumour would explain why Bunny is always contorted to the right and facing the wall or a surface. It is a neurological sign…

Bunny’s condition is deteriorating
It’s Chinese New Year and the vet only reopens today. I’m trying to get a slot for Bunny. He wasn’t doing too well yesterday. Mirtazapine seems to be helping, though, and he is still able to eat. But yesterday, Bunny wet himself on the chair. This morning, he wet himself and defecated right outside the…

Jayden plays with Riley and Gerald
Jayden has been helping me feed Gerald, Samantha and Creamy. Jayden decided to give a present to Gerald yesterday. He gave Gerald one of his favourite books. Then, he examined the cat tree. Like Ginger, Gerald is very child-friendly. Maybe ginger cats are like this? Earthing!

Adorable Riley
Riley, being a kitten, LOVES to play. She plays with Jayden’s soft toys, especially those small enough for her mouth and those with bells. She also loves playing catch and hide-and-seek with Jayden as well as Tabs. Well, there is no other cat in her zone, it’s just Tabs. When she plays with Jayden, she…

The “Sila Masuk” programme continues for Samantha
Gerald would more than willingly come into the house at any time. It’s Samantha who is tricky and yet, it’s Samantha who has to come in real soon as we approach the expected date of 8th February for her delivery. It could be earlier too. Every time, Gerald will come in first. Samantha will just…

Our carps
Google says: The Chinese carp has numerous symbolic values within Chinese culture. The carp is a powerful symbol of strength and perseverance. The scales and whiskers of the carp resemble that of a dragon, a great symbol of power in China. Every CNY, purely for fun, I try to take a carp photo with our cats. …

Gerald “buat kacau”
Gerald is doing to the Monsters exactly what Ginger had been doing to Indy for years now – annoying and mocking the other party from behind the safety of the grille. Is it a ginger cat thing? Who takes the bait and get irritated by it? Robin. Robin absolutely cannot stand it. It makes Robin…
