  • Breakfast for the Blondies

    It always starts with laying out all the raw food we’ve got for them in four bowls and later, it’s all about “musical bowls”, shifting the bowls around until I please their taste buds for that meal. My good luck streak ended at yesterday’s breakfast. I could not get Kai and Indra to eat. Only…

  • Gerald visits Bunny’s Place with Misty

    Yesterday, Gerald paid Bunny’s Place a visit! Breakfast first. Now, when it’s still dark, I don’t go out to the porch anymore. I feed them inside the house. It’s also good training for them to get used to feeling safe to come inside.   Then Gerald started whining very loudly. It’s not that he wanted…

  • Robin’s second medicated bath and heroic Tabs!

    Today was Robin’s second medicated bath with Pro-Hex. He has a balding and itching problem, so this was prescribed along with restricting his diet to only a single protein for at least 6 weeks. I’ve failed with the single protein diet after 3 days because he got sick of eating chicken. Moreover, trying to identify…

  • The amazing Feline Gut Soothe from Adored Beast

    I have heard of how effective Adored Beast’s Feline Gut Soothe is, but have not used it before because previously, all our cats who had gut issues also had CKD and this product is not recommended for CKD cats. Updates on 10th Sep 2024: Adored Beast contacted me to inform me that Feline Gut Soothe…

  • Happy Mother’s Day 2024

    Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers!! My mother used to say: It is a blessing to be able to give. My grandma would always say: Do not waste even a grain of rice. Eat up all your food! Happy Mother’s Day, everyone!

  • Homegrown guavas!

    If you would be so kind as to permit me to digress a little today, here’s sharing some photos of our homegrown organic guavas! For two people who absolutely have no green fingers, this is our pride and joy! We planted this tree from a single seed, obtained from an organic guava. It is amazing,…

  • The Monsters and their “refurbished” Catio

    Ever since the reptilian encounter, we cleared off all the pandan, thaumatococcus and jasmines from our front lawn. We also thinned out the thaumatococcus from the Catio. Ok, I’ll admit it was a bit of a knee-jerk reaction, but I was traumatised. Well, wouldn’t you have been too, if you were just 1 metre away…

  • Successful raw feeding for two days for the Blondies!

    The stars were aligned! I had two consecutive successful days of raw feeding for the Blondies – yesterday and today! All four ate raw food for breakfast!! That’s a record breaking feat! Our ginger girls – why do I still keep using the pronoun “he” for them until now?? Because 75% of gingers are males!…

  • Feline Gut Soothe for Indra

    I found out that Adored Beast has a very good pre-probiotic specially formulated for diarrhoea and loose stools, so I ordered it from the local seller, Honu Paws, and it was delivered the very next day. It arrived yesterday afternoon and I quickly gave some to Indra. For more info: https://adoredbeast.com/products/feline-gut-soothe It is amazing! This…

  • Visiting Nomi (Day 3)

    Today, Nicholas visited Nomi and I too went a bit later. Early this morning, the vet had already updated us about Nomi. Nomi has been alert and stable so far. Breathing still slightly laboured, will be doing another chest X-Ray again to assess her condition. She ate well. The small pocket of aid is normal…

  • Misty and Gerald (reunion videos)

    So after breakfast, Misty asked to go out to the porch again. She wanted to wait for Gerald. When she heard the familiar mewing from afar….. She ran to the garbage compartment! To welcome her best friend!! After eating, Gerald left for is ronda-ing again. Misty asked to come in again. We welcome Misty to…

  • Misty spent the night!

    Last night, after the thunderstorm, Misty came back to the porch. Even the during the thunderstorm, we opened the door, but she wasn’t around. I think Misty has a bomb shelter somewhere, because she is never wet when she comes back from a storm, no matter how heavy it is. So, we let her into…

  • Raw food, anyone?

    As you know, Riley is so, so difficult to feed (raw food). She’s a junkie. So, I’ve been handfeeding her raw food twice a day for many months now. Yes, every single day. By handfeeding, it means I actually put the food into her mouth and she swallows it. It’s more like force-feeding but no…

  • Indra’s loose stools update

    We still have not resolved Indra’s loose stools problem. But demeanour-wise, she is as active as ever. Here, she is doing battle with Robin. Her appetite is also very good. So going by my raw-feeding friend’s long-time advice, “they are just detoxing, leave them alone”. That is what he said about Indy last time and…

  • Misty’s visit and orientation

    Misty invited herself into the house today! My ultimate aim is for Misty to want to come and live inside the house on her own. Right now, her best friend is still Gerald and Gerald doesn’t want to live indoors. In fact, this morning, at 1.30am, Gerald was whining from the back row of houses.…
