• The huge fight between Cow Mau and Rey

    Finally…Cow Mau could not take anymore of Rey’s nonsense. A HUGE fight occurred yesterday morning. I had to use the water hose to break them up. But both refused to budge. So both ended up totally wet. Finally, I managed to separate them and chased Rey back to the catio. But in no time, Rey…

  • A new protein for the kittens and Sam!

    The kittens ate raw chicken and cooked sardines today! This is Coco&Joe’s Chicken & Fish recipe. Just as a gentle reminder, cats absolutely CANNOT eat raw fish. So no sushi for cats, please. Raw fish contains thiaminase which destroys the thiamine (vit B) in their body and this can be fatal. Please see below for…

  • Of biologically-appropriate food and evolution

    Some weeks back, an old friend contacted me to ask if I knew where to buy vegetarian food for dogs and cats. I immediately told him that dogs are omnivores, so while some dogs are known to be able to live on a vegetarian diet (provided it is nutritionally balanced), cats are obligate carnivores and…

  • Sam and her kittens eating 100% raw food

    I’m switching Samantha from Primal Freeze-Dried to Coco&Joe’s. Seeing her kittens eat, she is also following now. And for the first time today, Indra can finally pick up raw meat from a plate!! It’s an achievement for little Indra! This is Coco&Joe’s for Samantha. Her kittens are also eating it already. Healing well. Indra eats…

  • A kindergarten teachers – please take the lead

    We hope that kindergartens and their teachers will take the lead in inculcating kindness to animals to their students. Start them young with simple activities. Jayden, our one year-old street cat feeder!

  • Jayden, the youngest street cat feeder here!

    This morning, Jayden went out to the porch, took the kibble jar and went towards the gate to look for Gerald and Creamy! All by himself!! But I had already fed Gerald and Misty this morning. Creamy doesn’t come in the mornings nowadays. Only evenings. But as though reading our minds, Gerald came!! And he…

  • The need for humane education in school curricula (published by FMT – thank you!)

    I did not know that our open letter to the minister of education was actually published by FMT on 15th December 2022, a day after I sent it to the various online newspapers until someone wrote to me yesterday! Thank you very much, FMT! Here’s the letter with FMT’s comments too: https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/top-lifestyle/2022/12/15/the-need-for-humane-education-in-school-curricula/

  • The kittens teach Samantha how to eat raw food!

    On 6th March, Kai was the one who started to eat raw chicken breast meat. She was the first. Then, Akira followed closely. Indra was the last, being the youngest. In the very next meal, Kai was already able to pick up the meat from the small plate all by herself. (It is so strange…

  • Neutering aid for 2 dogs in Balakong (Tong Yut Fun’s) & Updates

    We have provided a full sponsorship of RM400 for the neutering of these 2 dogs. Another RM100 is gifted by Avant Pet Sdn Bhd to cover other expenses incurred in the neutering of these dogs. One of the dogs needed antibiotics for bite wounds and both dogs were boarded at the vet’s until full recovery.…

  • Longkang-Ginger escapes AGAIN!

    Our part-time cleaner was yelling in the garden just now. Ginger had escaped from between her legs when she opened Stargate2. Sigh… It’s been SO long since Ginger last escaped. Our cleaner felt so bad about it and was worried if Ginger fails to come back. I told her he normally does come back when…

  • Samantha, Kai, Akira and Indra this morning

    Here are some photos taken at 3.30am and again, just now. Peek-a-boo, Akira! Much better, isn’t it? As of yesterday, I’m letting Samantha do most of the feeding (of milk). I only feed them raw chicken now. If they are not interested in eating on their own, I will just place a small amount into…

  • Some news this week (using unneutered dogs to get donations??)

    Getting funds by using unneutered dogs? We heard this news from the grapevine so it is just hearsay. A certain group of animal feeders has been very reluctant to get their dogs neutered despite much advice and cajoling. Apparently, this group has a chatgroup where new people are roped in and each person is asked…

  • Higher penalty up to RM1 million fine for illicit wildlife trading but it is still on the rise?

    This was the news in February 2023: https://www.nst.com.my/news/nation/2023/02/875450/higher-penalty-rm1mil-and-jail-wildlife-crime-offenders And yet, this is today’s news: https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/nation/2023/03/11/illicit-wildlife-trade-on-the-rise/ We hope the authorities will nab these illicit traders and those involved. Wildlife is at the mercy of these unscrupulous and greedy humans.

  • Tabs’ sneezing came back

    Tabs was sneeze-free for a full 24 hours after initially taking the medicines. Then, it came back. I told her vet yesterday and she said Tabs is a very allergic cat (from the ear-prick blood test conducted that day). So, this may not be a case of cat flu but a case of allergy. Allergy!…
