Then name Riley means “courageous” or “valiant”. I thought it is indeed a very apt name for little Riley because even as a feral kitten she was so brave. Brave enough to come into our porch to eat. Brave enough to mew loudly for food every morning right at our front door. But today, Riley…

Yay! Riley ate up and polished clean the whole bowl. That means she ate up all the raw food I had sneaked into her canned tuna and mackerel. I’m going to add more each day with the hope of transitioning her to a 100% raw diet. It may not be possible since she isn’t a…

We went out just now and I kept Smurfy inside the house with Ginger. The danger of having Ginger inside when we are out is that he will spray urine. Worse, if there is the smell of other cats around, ie. Riley now. When we came home, as expected, Smurfy was just right behind our…

If you remember, during the Deepavali season when there were fireworks, Robin went on a terrorising spree, targeting mostly, poor Smurfy, his elder brother. Smurfy is a very mild-mannered cat (but so was Robin) and he did not fight back. So things were quite chaotic at the catio. Robin would be terrorising and chasing Smurfy…

I know Samantha has been coming to look for Riley. So I’ve been waiting for Samantha to come so that I can let Riley meet her. Samantha came this morning with Creamy. Usually Samantha comes to eat, but Creamy isn’t really interested in food. I think perhaps Creamy belongs to the house at the back.…

Good morning, everyone!! Riley finally used the litter box last night (or early this morning). I found faeces in it! But she still used the pink basin for urination. Both have soil in it, but the quantity of soil in the litter box is quite little. Last night, I noticed urine outside the litter box…

This afternoon, Riley went all the way back upstairs to her room. I didn’t see it happening but when I noticed she was missing from under the bluish stool, I looked all over the house for her but could not find her anywhere. Then I went upstairs and there she was – behind the TV!…

I knew Rey was going to jump so I sat on Bunny’s scratching post and waited for it. I did not know that my phone would lag (sigh). I actually took the video right from the time Rey was on the ground, before jumping but when I replayed it, it only shows Rey already on…

Riley had two trips out of the room today. Once was in the early morning when our part-time cleaner came.  I had to keep Riley in Robin’s big condo because I had chores to do while Riley’s room was being cleaned. The Monsters were very interested in Riley, especially Minnie. Tabs too was very interested.…
