• Everything, everywhere, all at once!

    After successfully catching Misty, I let her settle in first. There’s no point in putting her into the carrier so early, it would be so stressful for her. But I must say that between Riley, Samantha and Misty, who were all caught in exactly the same raffia string way, Misty is the least stressed. Samantha…

  • Ladies and gentlemen….Misty!

    I caught Misty this morning!! It all started with feeding Misty and Gerald at 4am this morning. There was no plan to catch Misty, actually. But at around 5.20am, there was the sound of some activity in the porch. I went to check and Bushy was in our porch but Gerald was keeping him at…

  • Were the dogs provoked?

    I saw a news report on an area which has a colony of stray dogs. Some residents claimed that they were attacked by the dogs. A representative, who, by the way, claimed that he was a dog lover, said something has to be done and has urged the authorities to “do something”. Names of the…

  • Why the world suffers

    My encounter in the last two days made me think of this quote by Napoleon Bonaparte: The world suffers because of the silence of good people. There are animal lovers in my neighbourhood who agree with what I do. There are neighbours who think the complainant was being very unreasonable, and yet, nobody chose to…

  • Lepak habis!

    Hiro’s such a good kitten!! Amazingly, I have not heard the snorty breath today. Let’s hope Hiro keeps getting better!

  • Feeding street animals

    Here are a few things I learnt from a friend who “knows”. (1) It is not an offence if you feed street animals inside your house compound. But best to keep the area very clean and do not leave scraps around. (2) It may or may not be an offence if you feed street animals…

  • Gerald and Misty, BFFs

    We came home this evening and saw Misty lying right next to Gerald on our bench. Misty was resting her head on Gerald too. It was definitely a sight for a photoshoot, but the moment I got down to take the photo, Gerald had jumped down. They have become the very, very best of friends…

  • Can cats get parvovirus from dogs – yes, they can

    The article: https://canna-pet.com/articles/can-cats-get-parvovirus-from-dogs/ An excerpt: …most research indicates FPV (feline parvovirus) cannot be transferred to dogs. However, there are some studies that have shown that a mutated strain of the canine parvovirus (CPV) can, in fact, infect cats. So while it is uncommon, yes – cats can get parvovirus from dogs. For example, if a parvo outbreak in an animal…

  • Hiro wants Primal Freeze-Dried!

    Wow! The little one knows he needs variety. I thought he did not like Coco’s Turkey recipe, it turns out he just wants something different. He didn’t want Coco’s today. Looks, he is eating rehydrated Primal Freeze-Dried. Mahal punya makanan…it’s organic. I put a lot of water in his little bowl and he sapu habis.…

  • Serai for tabs

    Poor, poor Tabs. The boys from both sides spray urine on her serai until the plants all die. We bought new ones today. The price has increased until RM10 per small plant. I think I can safely say I’m the only one who cannot successfully plant the humble serai. They all die. But that’s because…

  • The Princesses

    Riley takes care of them more than Samantha! They too did not like the Turkey recipe! My, my, we are choosy, aren’t we? Now I know who has not been using the litter box and urinating on the floor. I caught her doing it. It’s Indra. I’ve ordered new boxes. Would need to place one…

  • Hiro’s food

    He didn’t seem to like the Turkey recipe from Coco’s, so I gave him Cubgrub’s Chicken. Hiro weighed 383g today. Increasing very slowly. He is still not out of the woods yet.

  • Training Gerald

    Last night, Gerald was mewing at Samantha’s window. So I opened the window and quickly pulled him in before Samantha escaped. I let him spend some time in the room with his (biological) family and Riley. He mewed nonstop, but it wasn’t that loud so I don’t think it would have disturbed the neighbours. I…

  • Of cognitive dissonance and the sentience of animals

    The article: https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/leisure/2023/02/25/people-still-find-it-hard-to-grasp-that-animals-are-sentient-beings/ Excerpts: In other words, consumers still find it difficult to grasp the idea that animals are sentient beings like themselves. The psychological phenomenon behind this reluctance is called cognitive dissonance, theorised in the 1950s by American psychologist Leon Festinger. This often takes the form of a psychological discomfort that arises when beliefs are…

  • A cat project in Maryland, USA

    I have posted this before, but it’s worth reading as it is very real with practical ideas. The article: https://www.humanesociety.org/news/keeping-neighborhood-cats-safe This part, below, is a wake-up call, that no matter how annoying the intolerant people are, no matter how infuriated we are with them, our approach still matters and will make a difference to the success…
