The “vision” is for Ginger to live with Minnie-5, but it’s all dependent on Ginger, of course. It would be his decision. Ginger makes his insistence on going out. After all, it’s HIS patio/catio, right? This morning there was much less hissing on Ginger’s part. Ginger goes in and out, of course. But I’ve removed…

This happened early yesterday morning. By yesterday, while Rey and Smurfy were still climbing and trying their luck, Minnie had totally settled down, sleeping comfortably on Vincent’s table all day! You’ve got to give it to Minnie. Apparently, at her previous home, she also tried to break out for only one day (the first day…

It is now 11pm. So far, Minnie has made another attempt to escape through Vincent’s Route, which failed. And Smurfy has made two attempts to climb up Stargate2 right to the top to escape…and failed.  Minnie’s second attempt through Vincent’s Route. She failed and quickly did a self-imposed punishment back in the cage. This is…

Today is the big day. Minnie and her boys have patiently (and quite comfortably) lived in the two-bedroom apartment for more than 2 weeks now, while waiting for Ginger’s Catio to be fully (or so we think) Minnie-proof. This morning, the last two finishing touches were made by the kind contractors from whom I bought…

We put Birdy back in the nest yesterday with a slight glimmer of hope that perhaps Bella could do something to revive him. Bella did come back and spent some time at the nest. But after that, Bella and Felix no longer came back. I waited, but they did not come back anymore. Not in…

It happened about two hours ago. Birdy is gone. I had just woken up from a nap and was sitting at the computer replying some urgent messages when I suddenly saw Ginger walk past clutching a small bird in his mouth. I quickly alerted my husband who was also asleep. It was Birdy. He managed…

It’s only been 9 days, if our observation is correct. Bella and Felix have been calling very often for Birdy to start flying lessons but he is reluctant. Meanwhile this cat has been eyeing the nest and the birds. We use the water spray to chase her away. Luckily we’ve installed the netting, otherwise this…

It’s been almost 11 years now and Ginger still has not made friends with Cow, Bunny and Indy. In the early days, Cow, Bunny and Indy used to beat Ginger up if they ever met. But with age, the tides turned and in recent months, Ginger won all the fights with aging Indy. And poor…

Minnie and her boys have been back for more than 2 weeks now and so much has happened! Robin came back with chronic diarrhoea and was malnourished. I was so worried that he already had organ failure, but that does not seem to be the case. Now he is on track to achieving his ideal…
