Tabs, Juno and me
I injured my ankle yesterday. I slipped at the gym and heard a loud “CRACKKKK!!”, and thought I had broken or fractured a bone. How else would you account for the loud “crackkk” sound? But funnily, it felt okay right after that and I was able to continue at the gym. I even walked down…

Kelly’s post-breakfast meal and playtime
Kelly wasn’t at her usual guardhouse place today. I had to call her and wait a bit for her to come from another road. The guard says she seems to have found another home on that road to lepak once in a while. According to the guard, they don’t mind her presence because she’s “kecil”. …

Creamy “merajuk”?
Is there an accurate English word that means “merajuk”? I think not. Merajuk is a Malaysian cultural trait. You’d think it only happens with Malaysian humans? No, it happens with Malaysian cats too! I’m actually quite relieved that Smokey hasn’t come for two days now. When she comes, she really makes Gerald very upset and…

The Monsters’ post-breakfast snack
This is their dental snack. They absolultely love it. Robin has to dine privately on the table, above everyone else! This is Ginger’s earthing spot. He takes long naps on it. Minnie also made one (by clearing off the stones) for herself, a little further up from Ginger’s. Minnie is Ginger’s No. 1 fan! Do…

Kelly and Gerald
Today, Kelly had a treat of Fur/Ball Chicken. She loves it! Every morning, I also ensure she has freshly-filled water up to the brim, in a clean bowl. I’ve already provided the guard with a sponge to clean her plate and bowl. There is a tap at the guardhouse, courtesy of the VIP. I carried…

Who is the new Mommy’s Pet?
I’ve witnessed this change for a few days now. Awww….look at that! Indra is the new Mommy’s Pet! This is nice for a change. Well, finally! Indra was the runt of the litter and neglected by Samantha during her infancy. That is how I ended up handfeeding her, and Kai and Akira too, but mostly…

Kelly’s post-breakfast snack
Today, Kelly almost finished a whole can! Normally, she will leave one teaspoon if it’s tuna. If it’s chicken, she leaves more. The VIP brought hid grandson to look at Kelly this morning while I was feeding her. Kelly was in a playful mood today! If you are wondering why I write about all these…

What Smokey does
Smokey really disrupts the harmony and peace in the porch. Not that she is aggressive. Not at all. It’s just that Gerald is scared of her and because of this, he doesn’t dare to eat. Also, Smokey has a bad habit of stealing others’ food. So now, I have to feed Smokey a bit further…

Tabs and the Blondies
Tabs, after subcut, with Juno as the attending nurse. Tabs enjoys time lounging in Bunny’s Place. She sometimes spends hours in there. Nobody bullies her. Indra as the standby nurse. Kai, outside in her favourite basket. She’s not involved. A Blondie family photo with Juno!

Playing with Kelly and taiji with Gerald
Kelly’s post-breakfast treat this morning. And then, play time! Peek-a-boo! This is as high as she can go. Gerald awaits at the park. Loyal taiji companion too!

The Rey-Robin big fight
Yesterday, there was a huge Rey-Robin fight in the catio. By the time the we rushed out, we saw Ginger in between them. He must have broken up the fight. And quickly at the scene, from behind the screen doors, was Tabs, who had come to Ginger’s aid. Our seniors are great! The hero of…

What’s the secret in the room, Tabs?
Lately, Tabs has been spending almost all her time in the bedroom upstairs. Despite the hot weather, she doesn’t want the fan. If we turn it on, she moves out. It’s actually quite hot in the room all day, but it’s what Tabs likes. Some cats love the hot tar road in the hot afternoons…

Kelly’s post-breakfast treat
Today Kelly has a treat of Cindy’s WholePrey. But between chicken and fish, she still prefers fish. This is a very cosy corner for her to hide and take naps in. See you when I see you next, Kelly!

Kelly’s breakfast and the very hot weather
I went to give Kelly a post-breakfast treat this morning. Kelly was resting midway up the road and she was very happy to see me. We both walked down back together to the table at the guardhouse area. For the past few times, she no longer accompanies me up the road, which is a good…

Fusspot Robin eats Fur/Ball
It’s been quite challenging finding the “food of the day” for Robin. He’s a total fusspot. The food you cannot go wrong with him is RC Dental kibble, but we only use that as a dental snack, not as the main meal. So it came as a total surprise that he actually liked Fur/Ball’s Lamb.…
