  • Indy and Cleo’s subcut for today

    My plan is to gradually increase the volume of the subcut fluids for Cleo and Indy. Gradually, being the operative word here, because too much fluids might tax of the heart as well as, ironically, the kidneys too. Ever since Cleo started getting 150ml daily, her appetite has improved tremendously. But perhaps the Astro Oil’s…

  • Our taiji cats at work again and some reflections

    Here are Gerald and Misty, hard at work! They accompany me on my walks, but only at the park (which is safer for them and they know this) and as well as for taiji. On a more serious note: Why street dogs and cats live amongst us It was our human ancestors, many thousands of…

  • Cow Mau at the park!

    I’ve been wanting to take Cow Mau to the park for an experience at a different environment. And it is also not likely that he would try to escape. First, in the harness. But he clearly did not like it, so I took the harness off after that. Of course Cow was wary of the…

  • Indy’s subcut fluids

    Indy responded really well after the first subcut of 250ml. His demeanour improved instantly and his appetite came back. It was really very encouraging. Then, after 2 days (because the earlier instruction by the vet was 250ml on alternate days), I saw him go down again. So I figured he probably needs daily subcut to…

  • The Blondies

    Hello, Samantha and girls!

  • Indy’s subcut sessions

    The vet agreed that Indy should have 150ml of subcut fluids daily until the revisit next week. Hey, Indy! You’re going to have this daily from now, ok?

  • Come down please, Indy

    Indy is also very hard to feed, but we now know it must have been due to his kidney degeneration. But then again, Indy has always been a very choosy cat when it comes to food too. For many months now, I’ve been yanking him off the platforms in order to take him down to…

  • Getting Riley to eat

    Riley is about the hardest cat to feed in our house. And why so? She is VERY choosy and also, like Kai, would rather play. I dare say Riley is the most choosy cat amongst the 18 of them. Nowadays, what will she eat willingly on her own? Cubgrub Chicken topped with an adequate amount…

  • Gerald gets Misty’s throne (a simple lesson in charity)

    Aww… Gerald has been enduring all the bullying from Creamy for days now. So this morning, Misty let Gerald sit in her throne. Awww….good girl, Misty. Good girl! The throne is Misty’s favourite spot, but she’s decided to give it to Gerald today. This is what best friends do. They give up what they love…

  • Portrait time again (the Blondies, Tabs and Riley)

    Here are today’s portraits! Akira, Kai and Samantha. Indra Riley Tabs on her RM520 rattan chair with (ahem!) lumbar support! You humans have no chance to sit on it.

  • The story of the rattan chair and the plastic stool

    Recently, I bought this RM520 rattan chair with lumbar support for my husband who had complained of back pain. Look who is sitting on the RM520 chair and who is sitting on the RM30 plastic stool now?

  • What’s so interesting in the litter box, girls?

    What’s so interesting in the litter box, girls? A cockroach!!!! Smurfy joins them!

  • The subcut sessions

    Nurse Indra is on duty, as always. Thank you very much for helping, Indra. Can’t possibly do it without you!

  • Cow Mau and me

    I seldom get photos taken of myself and the cats because I’m hopeless at selfies and wefies. So I got Jia-Wen to take these: Cow Mau gets to come out to Tabs’ Safehouse with the Blondies. The other day, he wanted to go up on the bed to guard Jayden. Aww… Taking care of others…

  • The hardest cats to feed

    At Bunny’s Place, they are Kai, Akira and Indy. Kai is always too busy hunting. Too busy that she has no time to eat. Ever since administering the transdermal Mirtazapine, she has been eating at every meal. But how long will that last and I certainly do not want her to depend on this medicine.…
