  • Akira and Kai’s news

    There were soft stools (diarrhoea) yesterday as well as this morning. The problem is, I don’t know who it was from. But my guess is, it’s Akira’s. So the vet prescribed kaolin pectin and I went to a nearby vet clinic to get it. Akira is either still not too well or still associating raw…

  • My present from Jayden

    Jia-Wen and Sihui took the boys for a beach holiday recently and Jayden chose a souvenir for me! It is a handmade cat magnet! But since it’s made of glass, Jayden has since dropped it twice and as a result of that, the ears got notched…twice! On both sides too. How apt! A V-notch on…

  • Updates on WinWin (from Survivor Shelter)

    Ms Ong took WinWin to the vet’s today. WinWin’s blood PCV dropped to 15.5% (from last week’s 18%) so she was given a Darbopoetin jab again. The vet also said that WinWin is getting very fat and needs exercise. Otherwise, it is really not healthy for her. Ms Ong said that the virgin coconut oil…

  • Dinner!

    Here are the Porch Cats – Gerald, Misty and Creamy! They are all eating raw food. As always, the Monsters are the easiest to feed! All raw food too. I think Akira isn’t out of the woods yet. There’s still some gastrointestinal issues with her. I hope she gets better tomorrow. In this photo, she’s…

  • Kai eats raw food!

    Kai bounced back and ate a raw meal late last night! So I think both of them are okay now. The vet says I can stop the Beazyme already once they are eating normally. So, it’s just the probiotics for both and the Metrogyl to complete for Akira. Kai ate raw food last night and…

  • Kai eats raw food again!!

    I hope this means that Kai has bounced back! She is eating raw food again and it’s only this afternoon. It’s Cubgrub’s CKD Chicken. Cubgrub’s CKD Chicken has eggshell powder instead of grinded bone. I started buying it a long time ago for our CKD cats. Tabs really like this version so I’ve maintained it…

  • Gerald and Misty – the best of friends

    Updates: So sorry I made a huge typo in the original title. It’s Misty, not Riley! I normally only go out of a walk after the sun rises so that I can free a free dose of Vitamin D! 20 minutes of walking in the sun gives us roughly 20,000 units of Vitamin D, so…

  • Kai eats!

    So Kai just wanted canned food. She’s not ready to eat raw food yet, due to the bout of gassy gut. Kai is eating Cindy’s Tender Chicken with Broth here. According to a vet I spoke to sometime ago, the protein in cooked food is broken down so it’s more easily digested. But according to…

  • The cockroach-control endeavours continue

    Today’s verdict: Cocorex does not work to deter cockroaches. For new readers, I’m not aiming to kill the cockroaches, just to deter them and to ward them off. These cockroaches come up through the drainhole that leads to the sewage tank. And most likely, Akira and Kai got sick from eating the contaminated cockroaches. But both…

  • Akira bounces back!

    As of right now, I think Akira has bounced back! She’s active and her appetite is really good. She was so down and out yesterday so much so that as I drove Kai and her to the vet’s, she was so quiet (while Kai was making a total racket), I was telling her, “Hang on,…

  • Akira’s case of eating contaminated cockroaches (Part 2)

    This is a follow-up to today’s crazy day where Akira had a fever and was down and out. The vet says it is most likely a gastrointestinal problem and the only thing I could think of is that the Blondies are keen hunters and they are so attracted to the drainhole and cockroaches. Initially, they…

  • Akira rushed to vet’s with Kai tagging along (Part 1)

    It started with Kai not eating well yesterday. Then, in the evening, I saw a lot of vomit on the floor of the pantry, which I suspected was Kai’s. Then this morning, Akira refused to eat. This was followed by her vomiting. I was hoping the vomiting would stop but it did not. She kept…

  • Samantha escapes…

    …from Bunny’s Place into the house. Not onto the road. Just into the house. But it was bad enough. She sneaked out when I opened the screen door from Bunny’s Room last night, at about 9pm. Then, it was impossible to get her back. As you know, Samantha refuses to let me touch her. Even…

  • The Monsters visit…and it ends with a fight

    It’s been very long (about a month, at least) that the Monsters have not been allowed to come over to Bunny’s Place to eat grass. The reason is that the Blondies would also go over to Ginger’s Catio, climb up the platforms and attempt to escape. They still haven’t grown big enough, so they might…

  • Breakfast at Bunny’s Place

    This morning’s breakfast was a rare occasion because… …I managed to get all three Blondies eat by themselves without the need to handfeed them!! It is very, very rare indeed that they would be interested in food because almost always, they would be more interested in playing and just like how human mothers go everywhere…
