  • Riley’s portraits and her eating ruses

    Poor Riley doesn’t get the limelight often (because she doesn’t create dramas!), so here are two portraits of her! She’s a really good cat and she has taken Tabs’ place on my bed! The only issue with her is the eating. It’s very difficult to feed her her proper meals. She’s a total junkie who…

  • The Porch Cats

    Creamy Misty The best friends, Gerald and Misty!

  • Besides the AnimalCare work…

    Most of you probably know that I retired from work more than two years ago. My retirement came rather rudely due to some workplace issues which I shall not dignify by even discussing it here, and I was totally unprepared for it. To cut a long story short, it was not easy to deal with…

  • The trick to feeding the Blondies

    This are the tricks to feeding particularly Kai and Akira. Indra is okay, because she eats a lot. Kai and Akira, if given a choice, would rather play than eat. So the tricks are: Follow them to where they are and place the bowl there, in front of their faces. They might not come to…

  • Indy’s poop news – becoming softer again

    Sigh…Indy’s poop is becoming softer again. Looks like Promax only worked for about two days. Then, it’s slowly going back to square one again. The new probiotic and prebiotic powder I ordered should arrive around tomorrow. Let’s hope that works.

  • The BIG fight…and the equally BIG dinner that followed!

    A huge fight broke out at Ginger’s Catio this evening. The noise was horrendously deafening and thunderous. We rushed out to find Smurfy and Robin in a locked-body battle and fur was flying all over the catio. Husband broke up the fight. He can normally do this quite easily because the Monsters are terrified of…

  • The rest of the clan (Porch Cats and Ginger’s Catio)

    The Porch Cats…all peaceful without any disappearance drama act. Enjoying their breakfast without any hierarchy fights. All peaceful at Ginger’s Catio too. Minnie and Ginger, the very best of friends!

  • Indy’s poop report for the day

    Nice poop!! Very nice, right? It’s amazing what Promax can do for nice Indy poop! Kai is “looking after” the poop, as usual. Discussing the strategy to deal with the enemy… Robin, the baby-faced enemy. Beware! Taking a break for subcut first. To refuel.

  • Indy’s poop progress

    As of this evening, after dinner, there is still no oatmeal poop from Indy, which is, of course, a good thing. There were well-formed stools in the sandpit, but I am not entirely sure if any of these were from Indy. They were also not found at his usual spot. As you know, the sandpit…

  • AnimalCare is also an educational platform

    I met an dear old friend this afternoon. In fact, she and another friend were the pioneers who started AnimalCare with me. We have remained friends all these years and both of them are also animal rescuers in their own right. She mentioned something very interesting and I thought I should clarify this in a…

  • What is the 3:3:3:1 ratio in helping sick animals?

    I was doing a big overhaul and re-categorising of our blogposts for the past few days. Due to the upgrade of WordPress and an inevitable change of theme for this blog, many past blogposts were somehow wrongly categorised. I’m talking about over 6000 posts! Well, I’m an OCD stickler for order when it comes to…

  • No oatmeal poop from Indy…so far!

    There was no oatmeal poop this morning at Indy’s poo spot!! Yay! But it’s too soon to celebrate as we still have to wait for his poop today and for the next few days or even weeks before we know if the problem is resolved. And even then, it might still come back at a…

  • Indy’s oatmeal poop came back….sigh

    Ever since Indy’s finished his Promax, the consistency of his stools gradually went back to being soft at first, then as of this morning, it was back to the oatmeal poop again. Sigh… Promax worked…initially and from the oatmeal texture, it became formed stools, just soft. But it deteriorated after he finished his Promax, at…

  • Gerald in Jayden’s stroller!

    This is really so cute! Gerald has been sleeping in Jayden’s stroller since this morning and he loves it! Comfy, comfy!!

  • Jayden’s utopia for his toy animals

    Jayden loves animals and toy animals. He particularly loves BIG animals like elephants, hippopotamuses, rhinoceroses, giraffes, lions, tigers and lately, dinosaurs of various kinds. He likes ’em BIG! But we can learn a lot from how he plays with them. Look… Little animals are all riding on the big animals. They are all friends in…
