• Of protein rotation, hydrolysed protein, the biggest junkie in our clan and stories about the Monsters

    It was because of Bunny that I had to create the “Surprise-Me-Happy-Meals”, just to entice Bunny to eat. He was getting very choosy and losing protein, so I had to resort of offering him all kinds of different foods ranging from raw, to canned, to cooked and to kibble. Whatever it took, just to get…

  • Human’s antidepressants affecting animals and our ecosystems

    The article: https://bigthink.com/life/antidepressants-fish/?utm_source=Connatix I’m glad I do not need antidepressants. I tried that for very short periods in a three-year duration, but drugs did not work. It only made my symptoms much worse until I had to stop them on my own, against the doctor’s orders. They were making me even sicker and the scary part…

  • Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Cats

    The article: https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/inflammatory-bowel-disease-in-cats The sharing of all this information is so that we can look out for it as our cats (or dogs) age. Here are some pertinent points from the article: With inflammatory bowel disease, specific types of inflammatory cells, depending on the type of IBD, invade the wall of the stomach and/or intestines. As…

  • IBS and IBD in cats

    I only found out now that there is a technical difference between Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). I had earlier erroneously thought the two were the same thing. My apologies for this. https://www.petmd.com/cat/conditions/digestive/c_ct_irritable_bowel_syndrome From the description of the difference in the link above, I think Bunny had IBD. His wasn’t a…

  • Samantha may have large bowel diarrhoea

    But it’s a common thing with street cats. Not worrying. Samantha has been having frequent defecation of soft stools, so I thought I should check with the vet over texts. The vet says it sounds like “large bowel diarrhoea” which is quite common. Google says: What is the difference between small and large bowel diarrhea?…

  • The tussle over Bunny’s cage

    Cats know more than what we give them credit for. They have their rules, which in some ways, may give rise to more ethical actions than what we humans have. Yesterday before Bunny passed, nobody went into Bunny’s cage at all. It was left vacant. Out of respect? It was only after Bunny passed that…

  • Coping with the emptiness

    If someone has been with you for almost 17 years and suddenly, he is gone, it is bound to leave a gaping hole in your life. More so, if that someone has only given nothing but unconditional love to you, is non-judgmental of whatever you do, and only lived to love you. That someone is…

  • Deepest gratitude to all of Bunny’s friends

    Thank you so much to everyone who has shared Bunny’s life with us through the years, and especially during his final weeks. It touches us deeply that Bunny had so many friends and supporters. Thank you very much for the outpouring of messages through phone, blog comments, FB comments and for your silent prayers and…

  • A photo tribute to Bunny Bun Buns

    There must be thousands of photos taken over the 16 years and 9 months that Bunny spent with us. We’d like to share some of them with you, his friends and supporters. Bunny was rescued along with Cow Mau and Pole on a rainy morning on 7th May 2006 (Mother’s Day of that year). I…

  • Saying our goodbyes to Bunny Bun Buns

    We had six hours to say our goodbyes to Bunny. It was Cleo who stood vigil over Bunny. Cow Mau and Bunny, brothers for life through thick and thin. Ginger knew Bunny too. I am actually worried about Indy. Indy grieves. But in his own way. Tabs came to our old house one month before…

  • The passing of our legend, Bunny (7th May 2006 – 1st Feb 2023)

    Bunny passed away peacefully at 11.25am this morning. Ming-Yi and I were with him. We were with him since 9.30am this morning and he was not alone throughout. We would like to express our deepest thanks to all friends and readers who have been rooting for Bunny, sending kind thoughts and prayers, words of compassion…

  • Gerald visits Samantha

    Gerald was making a racket outside our front door. I think he wants to visit Samantha. So I let him in and he followed me upstairs. Here’s Gerald mewing in Samantha’s room. But the calico queen decided to ignore her friend. Even Riley and Tabs came up to join in the visit. Tabs was curious…

  • Rest, Bunny, rest

    Bunny is no longer able to swallow. I woke up at 3.30am this morning to change his paper towels and replenish his hot water bottles. He had urinated a lot through the night. His breathing is rather laboured. Last night, I gave him 0.2ml of Gabapentin hoping that he can be sedated. Bunny is also…
