  • Now, THIS is how you brush a cat’s teeth!

    Ming-Yi sent these videos! Dorami and Mina are incredibly obliging! Are you able to do this with your cats?  None of ours will oblige for so long!

  • Jayden and Indy

    Jayden loves Indy! Our Super Senior Warriors are Indy and Cow Mau and yet, they are very gentle, patient and restrained with Jayden. I think they understand that Jayden is just a toddler. Awww…. All the girls aren’t as patient. That’s Indra. Jayden: Indy is my best friend too!

  • Whoopee! Cow Mau has NO proteinuria!

    Believe it or not, I managed to collect Cow Mau’s urine today. I happened to see him urinating so I took a chance and walked towards him with a bottle. Luckily he didn’t mind it and I managed to fill up half the bottle with urine. I’m relieved that the colour looked “okay enough” and…

  • Cow Mau’s updates

    I took a chance and weighed Cow Mau just now. Now, I don’t know whether to celebrate or not yet…. On Wednesday at the vet’s, using their scale, he only weighed 3.55kg (his usual weight was 4kg). So that’s a massive weight loss which isn’t good news. Cow Mau has cachexia (muscle wasting) which isn’t…

  • Jayden and his best friend, Ginger

    Jayden can only play with a few of our cats because the rest are scared of him! So, amongst our “safe for playing” cats are Cow Mau, Indy and Ginger. Jayden wants to play with ANY cat, actually, but the rest are scared of him because he’s too excited! Jayden: Me and my best friend!

  • Jayden and Cow Mau

    Jayden definitely has a natural affinity towards animals. I do wonder whether he is born with it or he learnt it…. But it’s a good thing, of course! The youngest and the oldest! Cow Mau will be 18 years old in May and that would be equivalent to about 88 years old in a human.…

  • Peace, grub worms!

    I wrote about our garden some months ago and the “battle” which we had with the grub worms. We had Japanese grass in our garden but during the rainy season, colonies of grub worms flourished and we had a really hard time “battling” with them. On hindsight, it was completely foolish to do “battle” with…

  • The huge Kai-Rey fight

    Ginger vomited hairball this morning and all his breakfast and supplements came out with it. It’s been quite long that I have not allowed Ginger and the Monsters to go over to Bunny’s Place. The medicinal “Heidi” grass is also all gone now, and I suspect it is because of the urine sprays onto the…

  • The Blondies’ portraits

    Akira and Samantha. Kai and Indra. Today, they all ate dinner and nobody decided to fast intermittently! They had Coco&Joe’s, Cubgrub’s Duck and Chicken. Later, they will ask for junk!

  • A dog in the rain

    Something made me go out to look and there he was, this dog standing in the pouring rain, opposite our house, looking right at me. Poor thing, that’s usually a call for help. So I took an umbrella and went out to the dog. He wanted to come to me, but then he decided not…

  • Cow Mau eats diluted Hill’s KD

    I took a chance and added water to the Hill’s KD and made the mixture as smooth as I could. Normally, he doesn’t like water added to his food at all. Lucky, lucky! He’s eating the diluted food! He didn’t finish all of it, though. I can see he prefers it undiluted. But when diluted,…

  • Gerald and Misty, peace in the porch and other stories

    This morning, Gerald also did another victory march! A noisy one too. Well, ginger males are known to be very vocal and Gerald is particularly vocal! Happiness is when Creamy does not come. Even Misty is relieved because she wouldn’t have to look for Gerald or become an intermediary. I’ve tried bringing them into the…

  • Cow Mau eats well

    The good thing about the Blondies is that they don’t snatch the Seniors’ food unless it’s Indy’s renal kibble. Cow Mau is in the house now. He always asks to come in when it rains. Or, whenever he feels like it! As the oldest, of course he gets very special privileges!!

  • “When I grow up….”

    Kai: “When I grow up…” “…I want to work in sewage management.”   Kai is always so fascinated whenever I dispose of litter, be it poop or pee. She can stare at the drainhole for a very long time, thinking. Or perhaps she is hoping cockroaches and centipedes would crawl out?

  • Rey starts his “incursion” again

    This is how Rey does it. He gets up onto the big cage, from there, he goes onto the white window ledge and then he taunts whoever is sitting at the platform. This is what gets Indy all riled up. Cats!!
