• An update on Rey (large urine output)

    There was vomit again last night. It could only be from Rey, I suspect. Rey also lost his appetite totally last night. So I quickly contacted the vet and asked if it could be due to the Cystaid Plus or the Clavamox. The vet said to continue with the Clavamox but stop the Cystaid Plus first.…


  • Rey’s urination issue

    Yesterday, I took Rey to the vet’s because of his unusually large urine output. The ultrasound showed an inflamed bladder and also some structure loss in both his kidneys. Rey could have been born like this, or he may have not drunk enough water at his former home. But in any case, we have to…


  • A brief history of house cats

    The brief article: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/a-brief-history-of-house-cats-158390681/ The last sentence sent me into bouts of laughter! After all, how often do you see a movie’s maniacal arch-villain, as he lounges in a comfy chair and plots the world’s destruction, stroke the head of a Golden Retriever? It’s just so funny!  


  • Rey’s excessive urine output (to the vet’s)

    I started noticing yesterday – Rey’s excessive urine output. It isn’t frequent urination. Rather, it’s a large volume of urine each time he urinates. I noticed it today again, after I gave him a Malaseb bath. So I quickly contacted the vet and she advised me to bring Rey in for a check-up. At the…


  • Birdy is still in the nest

    Their camouflage is so good that it escaped my eye this morning. Birdy is STILL in the nest. Bella and Felix are both busy feeding her. I think, sadly, they again lost the other hatchling. She couldn’t have flown off so early. It’s nature. If our day of birth is correct, it should be another…


  • Updates from Survivor Shelter

    Here are some updates from Ms Ong, after our food aid to Survivor Shelter last week. We sent salmon, lamb and beef and according to Ah Win, the staff who takes care of all the 50 dogs, the dogs love beef the most, followed by lamb. They did not care much for the salmon but…


  • The morning news (Minnie-5 and Birdy Bird)

    At last, I managed to get all five of them in a single shot! Smurfy is really slowly but surely regaining his confidence again. Hooray! Just don’t make sudden movements when he is eating and he’ll be fine. For the first time in two weeks, they messed up the room this morning. Before this, the…


  • The refurbished Bunny’s Place (catio-ed) and Ginger’s Catio

    Bunny’s Place is now all catio-ed up to make it Minnie-proof and also there’s more shade from the rain now. I’ve always wanted to get this done but never quite got down to it. I’m so glad it’s done now. I feel so much safer too. It’s still not 100% completed yet. I plan to…


  • A bell for Minnie and Smurfy regaining confidence!

    Minnie and Smurfy look quite alike. They are of the same shade of grey and the only difference is in their size and Minnie’s ear-notch. So since Ginger took to his double-bell collar so well, I thought I’d try putting on a collar for Minnie too. No struggle at all, no attempts to get it…


  • Robin rejoins the clan for meals!

    Today, Robin does not need steamed pumpkin anymore! The vet advised yesterday that pumpkin is actually more suitable for constipation, even though it is often thought that it works both ways. And I think I have “trained” Robin to eat alone long enough by now, so I let him rejoin the clan for breakfast this…


  • How I got Smurfy to eat today (thanks to Cubgrub’s chicken treats)

    Backstory: Smurfy had a fright about three days ago when he was halfway through his dinner. Ever since then, he has been too scared to eat. It took a lot of time before I got him to eat in his hiding place. But then, even the slightest far away noise would frighten him and he…


  • Minnie-4’s great escape

    Yes, Minnie, Rey, Robin and Lynx ESCAPED from their two-bedroom apartment this evening. But, I found them and got them back safely already…haha. Phew! Here’s the problem – one of the bedroom’s door has a very tricky handle. There is a technique to close the door properly. I know how to do it, though. You…


  • Robin hits 4.08kg!!!!!! (everyone to the vet’s)

    Believe it or not! Robin has gained weight significantly!! Today’s vet visit: I had to borrow a carrier from my friend for this “operation”. All carriers were Feliway-ed before we loaded the cats in. Throughout the car trip, one cat was yowling and Rey urinated in his carrier. Poor thing. Here’s today’s report: LYNX: Weight:…


  • Minnie-5 – get ready for a car ride today!

    I made an appointment yesterday for everyone’s vaccination. Since Robin has already stopped having diarrhoea and everyone is eating well, I thought we might as well get it done on a weekend where I would have help. That’s five carriers in the car. Unfortunately, Robin started having liquid stools again this morning. Sigh…what happened, Robin?…


  • Ginger-Longkang wears two bells now

    Many thanks to a suggestion by a reader, Ginger now wears a collar with two bells on it. I bought a detachable collar which already had a bell and added another bigger bell in it. This is the first time any of our cats is wearing a collar because I’ve always been paranoid about issues…
