• Animal “shelter” or animal “hoarding”?

    The sad news: https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/law-and-crime/article/3007965/decomposing-bodies-dogs-and-cats-found-new-territories In our experience, we have encountered a few cases of hoarding before. The animals were in dire straits and yet the caregiver/hoarder still thought that he/she was giving them the best and that no other person can do better than he/she. Hoarding is a mental disease and the animals are the victims.…

  • Solid Gold superfood for Zurik and everyone!

    I was looking for a high protein natural pet food for Zurik (since he loves kibble so much). Coincidentally, Ecopet Sdn Bhd (sister company of Avant Pet) just brought in their latest product from the USA, Solid Gold. Website: https://www.solidgoldpet.com/ The question isn’t “what is Solid Gold,” it’s “who is Solid Gold.” Solid Gold is a…

  • Cat tunnels for the cats!

    Seeing how Heidi loves the laundry basket, we decided to buy cat tunnels from Ikea today! Also, Ginger needs to exercise so we are hoping he will play in the tunnels. Heidi was the first to try out the tunnel. She wasn’t scared. She ran in and came out, and sped off into her safehouse!…

  • Zurik plays with Heidi

    Heidi is an old cat, but she still loves to play. Very often, she plays with Tabs. But since Tabs is a timid cat and Heidi can play rough, Tabs is often scared of Heidi. Lately, Heidi has been playing inside our laundry basket. She loves going inside to scratch, roll about, then run off…

  • Zurik’s blunt teeth and still more on FIP

    Zurik has “blunt” teeth.  You’d think that is less dangerous, but it isn’t necessarily so. He can inflict blunt force trauma on me when I feed him his medicines! But I suppose blunt force trauma is less painful than sharp teeth injury!! There is less likelihood of puncture wounds which warrant a tetanus shot! It…

  • Kudos, Thailand!!

  • Debunking the myth of L-lysine benefits for cats

    “Cats with FIP, those that have been exposed to and have the coronavirus and those who are at risk of developing FIP should never be given L–lysine. The reason is clear. Arginine is necessary for a good, healthy immune system. As explained, L–lysine prevents arginine from being taken up in the body.” The article: http://fipcaregroup.com/pages/l-lysine-FIP-cats.html There are certain buzz words in the feline…

  • Zurik’s saliva-spitting technique and more about FIP

    Every day, after medicines, Zurik will ask for a reward from the kitchen. His reward is Cindy’s Salmon Recipe (with chicken) kibble. This is his current favourite kibble. He eats raw chicken fillet for breakfast. Zurik has also perfected a saliva-spitting technique because he hates having liquids syringed into his mouth. Here is how he…

  • Pole’s vomiting problem

    Pole vomited many times yesterday. I think it could be due to a different brand of fish oil that I tried out with wetfood. After eating that, she vomited no less than 10 times, but initially, it was the food she had eaten, then followed by many rounds of small amounts of whitish bile. It…

  • Mr Zurik’s news

    Zurik is on twice-day steroids now, but still within the anti-inflammatory dosage. We can only hope that this will reduce the inflammation and thus, reduce the effusion. As explained by the vet, his body will adjust and get used to the fluids in the lung cavity. So it will appear that he can breathe “quite…

  • The alpha-amigos

    Bunny can sleep for HOURS in the same position. But nothing beats sleeping on someone for the warmth. When I’m in the room, he will sleep on my lap. And he is heavy, so pins and needles will surely follow! Indy seldom gets the wooden chair these days. The group dynamics have changed ever since…

  • Neutering aid for 1 cat in Kepong (Wong Kun Tai’s)

    We have provided an aid of RM60 for the neutering of this cat. Ms Agnes Wong is a new applicant. Dear Dr Chan, TATO is a stray cat living around my apartment and I have been feeding him over a year. I am going to move out the apartment soon so now I decided to…

  • Eggs, Zurik?

    I scrambled an organic egg with butter, for Zurik. Let’s hope he eats it. If he does, it would be so easy to make this for him daily. But no. Zurik sniffed at it and walked OVER it. Eggs? You expect me to eat eggs? I’m a descendant of the tiger. I don’t eat eggs!…

  • Zurik’s check-up (3rd aspiration of fluids)

    I was optimistic and hopeful there would be less fluids in the lungs, or even less. Zurik’s breathing doesn’t seem so laboured anymore now. He looks so alert and he seems more energetic and interested in life compared to the past few months when living outside. Zurik’s appetite has improved so much and he eats…
