• 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…

  • Nomi’s updates this evening

    This is the latest update from the vet: Nomi’s chest X-Ray today is fine as well; only a small pocket of air in the pleural cavity was detected, this is expected in this kind of surgery. It will be monitored tomorrow and if need be, another X-Ray will be taken. Nomi’s PCV today is 30%,…

  • Nomi’s updates this afternoon

    Aline visited Nomi this afternoon and shared these photos: Eating well! According to Aline, the vet says Nomi should be caged and cared for for two weeks before the removal of stitches. Nomi will be under observation 1-2 more days since blood transfusion was done. We were also informed that because blood transfusion was done…

  • 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.…

  • Nomi’s updates – the morning after the surgery

    The vet in charge today updated that Nomi is doing well so far and is breathing much better. She even finished her food overnight! Her heart and lungs sound okay as well. Another X-Ray will be taken today. This was yesterday’s photo when she woke up after the surgery. Nomi will still be hospitalised tonight.

  • Nomi is stable now!

    The vet just updated with two lovely videos that Nomi is stable now. The 24-hour monitoring is still needed and Nomi is still on drips and on oxygen. But she is stable! Cats are just so resilient, aren’t they? Stay strong, Nomi! The next 24 hours is crucial and so are the days and weeks…

  • Nomi’s surgery – some details

    Here are some details on Nomi’s surgery: The diaphragm was torn in three places, so it was a very bad tear. There was adhesion of the liver to the right lung. The vet had to cut the sternum to fix this. In separating the organs, there was bleeding, as expected. Nomi needed emergency blood transfusion…

  • Nomi’s surgery – a success!

    Nomi’s surgery ended just a few minutes ago. It was a successful surgery. She is still under sedation with oxygen now, is still unstable and would need monitoring for another 24 hours. She is not out of the woods yet as this was a very high risk and complicated surgery, so we still need everyone…

  • Indra’s loose stools updates

    Yesterday I had already started Indra on raw rabbit. I force fed her about a teaspoon since she will not eat it on her own. This morning, I found a bit of loose stools, but not as much as in previous days. This is her favourite spot now. But she’s here this morning when I…

  • Misty invites herself into the house!

    If one day Misty is happy to live in the Safehouse with Tabs and Riley, that would be good, but for now, she still wants to be free. This morning, Misty invited herself into the house. Eating here. But right after eating, she wanted to go out. Okay, Misty. I respect your wishes. Gerald came…

  • All our best wishes and healing thoughts for Nomi

    Dear Friends, Nomi’s surgery to repair her diaphragmatic hernia is this afternoon. It is a very high risk surgery and the chances of success is 50-50. But without the surgery, she would have breathing difficulty which will just deteriorate and she would endure much suffering. We have checked with several vets and  surgery is the…

  • Keeping fit and healthy….for our animals

    Allow me to digress a little from our usual stories about animals and talk about fitness and health, because as caregivers, we really need to be as fit and as healthy as we can in order to look after our animals. This is about my mother, who turned 91 today! On 1st May 2024, just…

  • Indra’s loose stools

    Indra’s stools are still pasty. I think she must have known that I want to monitor her stools so she did it for me to see to save me the trouble to sifting through hours of CCTV footage! I pounded the Pro-Fibre (which the vet affectionately calls “rabbit food” because it looks like that!) and…
