• Please eat, Kai

    I’ve been quite worried about Kai not eating very much. Sometimes, she will skip an entire meal because hunting and playing are more important for her. I’ve asked the vet about this, and she says it’s quite normal for kittens to prioritise playing instead of eating. Last night, I applied some Mirtazapine on her inner…

  • Astro Oil’s Renal Care Package for Indy and Cleo

    I have used Astro’s Oil Renal Care Package before. It was for Pole and I must say that it gave Pole 4 more months of quality life where she was as normal as any other healthy cat. But we all know that chronic kidney disease is a progressive terminal illness and there is no turning…

  • Please, please consider palliative care for service and search & rescue dogs

    It is extremely sad and heartbreaking when we hear of service dogs and search & rescue dogs being euthanised. Every animal is entitled to live out their natural lives, but service dogs, in particular, are heroes who have served humanity. They did not ask to be service dogs – it wasn’t their choice. But humans…

  • Cow Mau in the house

    Spot Akira and Indra in the background? Since yesterday, I’ve opened the door so that everyone from Bunny’s Place can come over to Tabs’ Safehouse to play. After exploring, they still feel more comfortable going back to their own place.

  • Indy and Cleo eat their renal canned food

    Cleo and Indy are eating Brit renal canned food. I have to keep Akira at bay because she is a master food-thief. All she does is to come close enough and stare at the bowl. The Super Seniors will move away and let her eat. Such a joy to see Indy having an appetite again…

  • Jayden, Gerald and Misty at the park!

    This morning, I had a scare. Only Creamy and Misty were in the porch at 6am when I fed them. Misty didn’t even eat. She was waiting for Gerald. It was only at 7.30am that Gerald came running back via the neighbour’s roof from the back road. I wonder where he was earlier. But I’m…

  • A subcut session and nurse Indra

    Nurse Indra is always present whenever subcut is administered on Cleo, and now, Indy. It’s 150ml daily for Cleo for 10 days to recheck and re-evaluate. For Indy, it is 250ml on alternate days. Also to be re-evaluated after 10 days. I definitely see some improvement in Indy’s wellbeing already. And he is only on…

  • Feeding the Super Seniors and tales from Bunny’s Place

    This is the Super Seniors and the Blondies (plus Samantha’s) breakfast. The two blobs is the Renal-N mixed in baby food. The smaller one is for Cleo as she needs 1 scoop twice daily while the bigger one is for Indy who needs 1.5 scoops twice daily. Indra, Cleo, Cow Mau and Samantha eating. This…

  • Free access for the Blondies to Tabs’ Safehouse!

    I opened the kitchen back door today and everyone from Bunny’s Place was free to come into Tabs’ Safehouse! Everyone came in to explore, including Cow Mau, Indy and Cleo. Surprisingly, Cleo was keen to explore. Usually, she is very wary and untrusting of new spaces and would prefer to run back to her safe…

  • Wet renal food for Indy and Cleo

    For the next 10 days, Cleo and Indy will be on a strict renal diet and subcut so that we can evaluate if this regimen works to reduce their creatinine levels. For renal food, I only have Cubgrub’s CKD Chicken and RC’s renal kibble. The renal kibble is used more as a snack, actually. Today,…

  • Tabs to the vet’s for her annual check-up

    How told is Tabs, exactly? We don’t know. She came to our old house in November 2011 wearing a red collar with a bell. When I took her to the vet’s to be neutered, the vet estimated her age to be “7 months”. This would mean Tabs is 12 plus this year. So since I…

  • Cow Mau’s echocardiogram at the vet’s

    Cow Mau had his echocardiogram done today. It is basically a thorough ultrasound scan of the heart and it took more than 30 minutes. The left ventricle was checked more thoroughly than the right since it’s the left that pumps oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body. Cow was very cooperative, though. But he…

  • Keeping Uncle Indy company

    The Monsters, Riley and the Blondies have definitely brought life and activity to our seniors and super seniors. Over at the catio, Minnie and the Monsters adore their Uncle Ginger so much. In the safehouse, Riley is Tabs’ playmate; they can be seen playing catch every now and then. The Blondies definitely bring a lot…

  • Doing CNRM within our means

    As I had written in the previous post, the best way to keep our CNRM work sustainable is to do it within our means. Whether it is only one animal or 100, everyone’s financial resources, time and energy are limited, so everyone’s “means” would differ. Never compare yourself with another caregiver. As for me, we…

  • The plight of animal welfare volunteers in Singapore

    The story: https://sg.news.yahoo.com/why-animal-welfare-volunteers-singapore-find-their-thankless-job-tiring-drop-out-074509688.html We can totally relate to the many issues that they face. It is not just restricted to Singapore alone. It happens here as well. We have, in the past, encountered individuals who start off with so much passion and commitment, but the problem is, they do not know that everyone has limits. They…
