  • On a cold rainy day

    From left: Gerald, Indra, Akira and Samantha. Where is Kai? Here she is! On cold rainy days, the cats sleep more and also…eat more!

  • Tabs is looking much better

    After starting on Fortekor, Tabs appears to be in much better spirits! She definitely looks brighter and is also more cheerful. We had to change the pillowcase for her special favourite pillow because Indra keeps sleeping on it. There’s Indra, taking over the pillow again!

  • Who is sleeping on Tabs’ pillow?

    Oh no…Indra is sleeping on Tabs’ favourite pillow in the living room. Tabs owns this pillow, so why has Indra taken over it? Because Tabs has taken over their bed in Bunny’s Room! Well, no wonder! This looks like a long afternoon nap. Akira migrates here. Meanwhile, Gerald is taking a long nap after the…

  • Can the Monsters control Gerald’s yowling?

    We can only try and see if it works. Husband let the Monsters go over to Bunny’s Place. The Blondie girls are all in the Safehouse and Samantha is in the room. Only Gerald is in the garden with the Monsters. He doesn’t seem at all intimidated by their presence at all. After all, he…

  • Serai stories

    The serai stories continue… We have three potted serai plants to rotate; one for the Blondies, one of the Monsters and one intermediate plant for rotation. It’s like when two persons dine in a Chinese restaurant, they serve you three cups of Chinese tea; for for each person and one more intermediate one to cool…

  • The tightrope walker and the yowler

    It’s very fascinating watching Kai balance on the clothes lines with such ease every morning. She never fails to do this, to watch the insects flit to and fro from the tree branches. Indra is busy guarding their serai plant. More about this in the next post. Gerald is being…Gerald. The yowling, I believe (or…

  • Tabs to the vet’s (PCKD check-up)

    Along with Ginger, we also took Tabs to the vet’s for her PCKD check-up today. Unlike Ginger, Tabs’ CKD has progressed. Granted, hers is actually a PCKD and not CKD alone. Tabs has polycystic chronic kidney disease whereby multiple cysts presents in both her kidneys. It is a structural deformity and there is nothing we…

  • Ginger to the vet’s (CKD and paw wound check)

    We took Ginger and Tabs to the vet for their CKD progression check-up today. I will talk about Ginger first. Ginger’s paw wound hasn’t completely healed yet. When the vet removed the scab, there was still a bit of bleeding, and it hasn’t dried up yet. Still a little bit of swelling. He doesn’t need…

  • Tabs’ third medicated bath

    This is Tabs’ third medicated bath for her balding issue. I’m using PyoHex shampoo. Seven minutes of soaking. It’s a hot day, so she dries fast. That red circular spot has completely healed. The hair is slowly but surely growing back in the bald spots too. She’s got one vial of Advocate spot-on, and will…

  • Gerald and Creamy at the park

    Gerald got a trip to the park this morning and Creamy was there too. I had already spotted Creamy during my morning walk. He was lounging at the park. So, after my walk, I took Gerald out. Creamy’s watching us. Soon, Creamy had disappeared from the park. But when Gerald and I reached home, we…

  • Ginger and the Monsters

    Today is Day 7 of Ginger’s paw wound and a small scab fell off. Hopefully he doesn’t have to extend his antibiotics after tomorrow. Then, I can go back to giving him his daily probiotics again. Minnie Robin Smurfy Lynx Rey All is good at the Catio except for the occasional fight amongst themselves and…

  • Kai’s daily tightrope walk

    Kai does this tightrope walk every single morning. She’s really an expert at it as she goes from line to line with such ease and finesse. They must be insect-watching. Gerald goes for a park trip later…

  • Indra’s first night away from Bunny’s Place

    While Indra spends most of the time inside the Safehouse, last night was her first night away from Bunny’s Place. Samantha didn’t even look for her, actually. She would, if it were Kai or Akira. She would call them from the door. But with Indra, she doesn’t quite bother. Indra also refused to go back,…

  • Tabs’ serai

    Ocassionally we have to bring the serai pot into the kitchen for Tabs. Here she is. Tabs is too afraid to eat it when she goes out to Bunny’s Place. She needs privacy and to be away from the bully, Kai.

  • Gerald and the girls

    This is Tabs’ safe spot in the house. If she is sleeping here, I am not allowed to catch her for feeding supplements or subcut. In any case, even if I tried, I will fail miserably. There are too many escape routes from here, and lots of hiding places. Indra has more or less established…
