  • The crazy string-eating Blondies and their cat tree sisal rope

    If you remember, the Blondies are all string-eaters. Akira swallowed two strings before and luckily she managed to pass them out, but I did not leave it to chance. I took her to the vet’s for ultrasound to monitor the movement of any possible remnant strings – luckily there were no more and it’s all…

  • Juno’s little stories

    Juno is definitely a small-sized cat. In her last check-up which was during her spaying, the vet said her weight gain is “normal”, so there’s nothing to worry about. I guess most of our cats are so big (!), so I’m so used to big-sized kampung cats! Look at the Blondies – they are kampung…

  • Happy Meatless Saturday!

    This is today’s lunch at Vitafoods, Subang Jaya. It’s Sweet and Sour Cranberry Mushroom with vegetables. I requested no rice so the plate of rice is replaced wth another plate of vegetables. The healthy art of eating is to eat up all the obvious vegetables first. Like this. Then, only the protein. And last (and…

  • The fourth review of PledgeCare products (Meat Toppers & Fresh Chicken)

    This is my fourth review. I ordered Fresh Chicken from PledgeCare and it came within 15 minutes, packaged in an insulated bag, which I appreciate very much. I’ve had frozen foods delivered to me without any insulation before and some packs had already defrosted, which was terrible. Fully frozen, no signs of defrosting at all.…

  • Juno breaks her record!

    Haha… We discovered a record-breaking 10 socks removed this morning! There are 16 socks in all, so this is really a new record for Juno. Presented neatly for us too. We know it’s you, Juno.  It is okay.  No harm done. Lookie! She has learnt from Riley to pee in the basin. Oh well…it’s okay.…

  • Tabs and me

    Tabs and I spend quite a lot of quiet time together every day. She doesn’t like her CKD supplements and subcut to be given and done in the early morning, so I let her be. But by mid-morning, she will actually come and ask for it. Or, she will let me know she’s ready by…

  • Is Minnie touchable and Juno’s stories

    It’s been many years now, but Minnie is still “out of reach”. I’ll never know how old Minnie is because she came with skinny Smurfy in 2020, seeking help. Based on her teeth, she was estimated to be more than one year old then. So that would make her about six years old now. Minnie…

  • The cutest antics of Juno!

    My butter fingers! I accidentally dropped a box of blueberries the other day and all of the tiny berries spilled out onto the floor. I picked up every berry that I could find, but apparently, I had missed one… …which Juno found and the next day, I saw it placed neatly with her puff balls…

  • Happy Meatless Thursday!

    My vegetable soup! The protein is Kampung Harvest’s led-free century duck egg (unfertilised, no slaughter). The vegetables are broccoli (more stalks than florets), red capsicum, pumpkin, carrot, spinach, watercress, garlic, broccoli sprouts and alfalfa sprouts, goji berry, red dates. Have a happy meatless day, folks! Let’s do it for the animals! This is an original…

  • The third review of PledgeCare products (freeze-dried duck cubes and anchovies)

    My third review of PledgeCare products! I ordered from their website and delivery was on the very next day and very fast too. If you order above RM100, it’s free delivery in the Klang Valley. Everyone loves the duck cubes! However, they didn’t quite like the anchovies. These are really big anchovies! Only Smurfy was…

  • Samantha, oh Samantha!

    Look at how comfortable Samantha is! It’s actually been more than two years since I tricked Samantha into coming inside our house, then got her upstairs to the bedroom so that she could give birth safely there. That historic day: https://animalcare.my/2023/01/27/ladies-and-gentlemen-we-present-samantha-gerald-helped/ For new readers: Samantha was a 100% street cat and she was spotted on…

  • Smokey’s visits

    Smokey is the back neighbour’s cat (also Creamy’s friend) and so far, Creamy has not brought Smokey to our house. Creamy comes alone twice daily (or more if his owner goes on holiday) for his special raw meals. But Smokey loves to sit on the ledge and socialise with our cats!

  • The challenges of keeping up with technology

    Age is not an excuse, I know. I am always reminded by my mother who tried to learn the computer and the piano in her eighties. Well, she did not quite succeed, but the fact is that she tried. For the piano, my mother is tone deaf (she doesn’t know it, but she is), so…

  • What Creamy does

    Creamy is the back neighbour’s cat. His name over there is Abu (we only found this out a few months ago).  I named him Creamy when I got him neutered two years ago. But Creamy comes over daily for food, twice. And he only wants raw food, not cooked, canned or kibble. A bit strange….I…

  • Day 2 of my homecooked cat food!

    A bit more success today! Would you believe this? Juno is eating some of my homecooked food mixed with some canned tuna!  Miracles of miracles! For new readers, I started Juno off with raw food the day I brought her back from the middle of the road (after a vet’s visit, of course). She was…
