• Cow Mau’s SRR

    SRR stands for Sleeping Respiratory Rate. For Cow Mau, I have to keep a record of this to monitor is heart condition. It is to be taken only when he is in deep sleep. Just count the number of breaths in 15 seconds and multiply that by 4. Today’s was 24. As long as it’s…

  • How is Indy’s poop this morning?

    Well, I dare say there’s some improvement today. Not bad, right? There’s some form. I think the Promax is doing the trick! I have not decided if I want to stop the rest of the supplements and just use Promax. Let me do a bit of research first. I think I’ll stop the pumpkin, for…

  • The Monsters’ breakfast!

    It’s quite rare to be able to capture all of them in one shot because normally Lynx and Smurfy will eat at the first-dibs table. Can you identify and name everyone?!! Feeding them is such a joy because they love to EAT!! Well, except for Minnie and Robin who occasionally go on intermittent fasting. But…

  • Indy to the vet’s (kidney readings down a little but blood pressure is HIGH)

    Next was Indy’s turn. CKD and PCV check: Crea 426 (from 573 to 455 and now, 426, so this is encouraging.) Urea 24.5 (from 36.8 to 23.5 to 24.5) Phos 1.69 (good, previously at 1.9, so this is an improvement). Maybe the Astro’s Oil’s Nitrogen-Creatinine Scrub is working as it also works as a phosphate…

  • Cleo to the vet’s (kidney readings maintained, PCV up a little)

    Next was Cleo’s turn. CKD and PCV check: Crea 477 (from 467 to 430 and now, 477, so it looks like the creatinine is hovering.) Urea 20.6 (from 24.1 to 22.5, so this is a reduction, which is good.) The vet said the creatinine level is very much dependent on food. So CKD food is…

  • Cow Mau to the vet’s (blood pressure back to normal!)

    I took Cow Mau, Cleo and Indy for their check-up today. Here’s how it went for Cow Mau. Cow’s was supposed to be a heart and blood pressure check-up, but the vet decided to check his kidneys too because Cow has already been diagnosed with congestive heart failure and this could easily lead to kidney…

  • Indy had formed stools, but…

    I was so happy this morning to be greeted by formed stools at Indy’s spot… See, isn’t this a sight for sore eyes? It’s well-formed, just a bit soft, but it’s already such an improvement from the oatmeal poop. So, perhaps it’s what I gave yesterday that worked? Pumpkin (once), Slippery Elm Bark (one capsule)…

  • Our previously scorched earth

    A few weeks ago, we noticed that almost three-quarters of the grass on our lawn was drying up and dying. Our part-time gardener came and he told us that it was due to some “worms” that were eating up the roots of the grass. A quick check over the internet revealed that these are not…

  • Goodbye Jacky (updates from Imm’s Shelter)

    For those of you who know Jacky’s story, we are sad to share that Jacky passed away this morning. Judy updated us. Jacky had been suffering from end-stage kidney failure for many months now, so as with the protocol at Imm’s Shelter, Judy will bring home any dog or cat who requires special care. Jacky…

  • Updates on WinWin (from Survivor Shelter)

    Ms Ong updated us on WinWin’s latest check-up. It’s all good! WinWin’s blood PCV is 34%, which is fantastic and his Cyclosporin tablets has been reduced to 2 tablets now. We are so happy that WinWin is doing well after such a long battle with IMHA.

  • Oh no, it’s back to the oatmeal again

    What short-lived joy and relief…. This morning, I found two blobs of oatmeat poop at the sandpit. One was at Indy’s spot and the other not too far away, presumably also from Indy. The poop did look rather yellow, as though it had pumpkin in it. I’m quite sure it is from Indy and not…

  • An extremely fierce battle between Samantha and Robin

    It just happened about an hour ago. The war cries were earth-shattering. I had opened Stargate to allow Ginger and the Monsters to cross over to eat grass. I was monitoring everything, ensuring no fights broke out and none did. Indy crossed over to Ginger’s Catio too, but I shooed him back. Later, I shooed…

  • Indy’s glorious formed poop!!

    So I had a battalion of remedies all lined-up to give Indy for his once-a-day oatmeal stool. Kaolin pectin was my first and that failed. I’ve been giving it for a week with no result at all. That’s strange because it worked so well with Akira and Kai previously. Well, to be fair, it did…

  • Rayuan kepada Perhilitan and Jabatan Perkhidmatan Veterinar (An appeal to the Dept of Wildlife & National Parks and the Dept of Veterinary Services)

    It had been brought to our attention through an article published by Kosmo.com: https://www.kosmo.com.my/2023/10/02/bau-hamis-tiada-beruk-petanda-ada-harimau/ that live puppies were used as bait by Perhilitan to lure and capture panthers in the Kuala Pilah area. Below is our appeal to Perhilitan and DVS to kindly stop using live puppies and instead, use meat or any method which does not…

  • The snackers and the master strategist

    Today’s snackers are Indy, Samantha, Kai and Akira. Akira and Samantha will never pass off a snack. They are total junkies. Tabs and Riley too, but more of Riley. She is really a snacker. In fact, Riley doesn’t eat proper meals. She only eats snacks. What a junkie! You are the hardest to feed, Riley.…
