  • Indra eats every 1-2 hours now!

    Wow, Indra is certainly catching up for the two lost days! And there I was worried about her losing weight… But she’s only eating her new-found tasty junk food – kibble!! At 2.25pm, Indy came to the screen door to ask for food. Indy and Cow Mau get to eat whenever they please. They are,…

  • Updates on Dora, Phantom and Tuff (from Imm’s Shelter)

    Here are some updates sent by Judy on 6th November 2023: Phantom’s neuter wound healing well. Can be discharged probably Thurs if stitches can be safely removed. Unfortunately, Phantom is a cryptorchid with one undescended testicle. According to Judy, the vet only castrated the descended one as he could not feel the other one. So…

  • Hungry Indra eats….kibble??!!

    Yes, she must be REALLY hungry!! I was doing some work in the garden when I suddenly caught a glimpse of Indra walking towards a bowl of remaining kibble. Then she started eating it! What??? Indra has never touched kibble before! She must be really, really hungry now. I was at odds wondering if I…

  • Awww….a Cleo bag from Honu Paws!!!

    I was so, so pleasantly surprised and immensely touched today when this arrived by courier!! It is a Cleo tote bag!! I love it so much, and the sweet and kindest thought that came with it! When Alda, the founder of Honu Paws (a new friend) asked me for Cleo’s photo a day after she…

  • Medicines, medicines (and about Promax)!

    I think I am suffering from some brain fog ever since getting Covid-19. Besides making loads of typos, I sometimes stare at a word and cannot spell it correctly. Sort of getting all my letters jumbled up and not knowing which to put first. Yikes! I hope this isn’t permanent. The last thing I want…

  • Indra’s progress

    Indra’s morning began with me giving her Promax. After that, I saw poop in her usual spot. Now, this is a time when I’m thankful she still pees and poops on the floor in Bunny’s Room because it is so easy to monitor! The poop was totally wet followed by a short bit that was…

  • Checking in on Indra (no poop and she eats…a bit!)

    Dateline: 1.10am, 9th Nov 2023 I woke up to check on Indra. Found her awake and grooming herself here, near Samantha. We recently brought this bench in here from the porch and the cats are loving it. Gerald used to use it a lot last time and nowadays, he either goes elsewhere (maybe another home?)…

  • Indra to the vet’s (bloody-jelly-like and puddles of poop)

    I starting noticing yesterday evening that Indra wasn’t herself. She skipped dinner (which is rare and has never happened before because Indra always eats a lot at every meal). But actually, she has not been eating a lot for a few days now. She still ate, but just not a lot and I left it…

  • East meets Far East – our Zen-Tropical garden

    In our old house, we had a Balinese garden, which was our pride and joy. People would stop by to admire it and ask if they could come in and sit in it for awhile, just to enjoy the atmosphere. Then when we moved here, the landscape company that did our Balinese garden wasn’t around…

  • Katzen Cat Sanctuary – for sick, old and abandoned cats

    Every once in a while, we get requests from pet parents who want to find a place that can accept their pets who need end-of-life care. Normally, we start by giving these parents guidance on how to provide palliative care for their pets, but sometimes, due to their personal circumstances, they are unable to do…

  • Covid’s chills and our cats’ warmth

    I’m isolating myself in the house as much as I can. And it’s hard to ask the cats to stay away from me. But I should stay away from them as humans are known to be able to spread Covid-19 to cats and dogs. Meanwhile, I’m getting the Covid-19 chills every now and then. Even…
