• The (hopefully!) last chapter of my bout with pneumonia

    The moment of truth was this morning when I went for my follow-up chest X-ray and consultation with the specialist. The good doctor showed me the X-ray and he is very happy. I am 90% healed!!  And that’s fast. Just a teeny weeny more on the left lung. Only a Ct scan can show if…


  • Say NO to fireworks!

    The much dreaded New Year’s Eve celebrations are coming soon, then not long after, it would be the equally dreaded fireworks and firecrackers for Chinese New Year and it’s not just one day, it’s probably more than 15 days. What is cultural/traditional but bad for the planet need not be preserved. I go head-on with…


  • What is the 3rd leading cause of death in the US?

    Allow me to take a departure from animal stories and talk about our health. Please listen to this: I can attest to this. It’s happened to me at least twice where the drugs made me far worse than I was. Luckily I did not die. The first was a certain specialist who told me I…


  • Gerald’s yowling (talking)

    Yesterday, while I was doing my mandatory morning walk, Gerald was yowling at the park. A very kind elderly gentleman who also does his walk in the park and has a compassionate heart for animals kept telling me, “Your cat is looking for you”. I felt so bad, so I explained that Gerald is just…


  • Shorter feeding sessions today!

    Today, I got all the feeding done in just half an hour! Juno decided to eat. Hooray! Even Riley ate, which is rare. Tabs no longer wanted Cindy’s Complete Pate, as expected, so luckily I have a wider selection of canned foods now. I offered Monge and yay, I hit the jackpot! Juno and Riley…


  • Gerald’s ongoing drama

    Gerald has been yowling quite a bit lately. Creamy (aka Abu) has been intimidating him. And also, take a look… Socks has been coming again. Gerald doesn’t like Socks. And of course, Bushy H intimidates him too. That’s Gerald following me on my walks. This is another cat at the playground. Gerald is probably afraid…


  • Food and vegetables are less nutritious than they used to be

    Don’t we all already know this, but no harm being reminded of it again: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/article/fruits-and-vegetables-are-less-nutritious-than-they-used-to-be “Let food be thy medicine and medicine thy food” may not be sufficient anymore these days. My childhood dogs, Puffin and Remirth, only ate home-cooked meat and rice and almost never had to see the vet. They never ate kibble…


  • Cindy’s Complete Pate for Tabs

    Here we are, trying yet another food, especially for Tabs. This round it’s Cindy’s Complete Pate and it’s a complete meal. I’ve already tried this some years back, but at the time, nobody liked it.  As always, when it’s a complete food, it’s not popular. Tabs liked it! I’m actually doing all this for Tabs…


  • My post-pneumonia cough is gone!

    This is an update on my post-pneumonia recovery. My post-pneumonia cough is gone!! It’s actually been gone for a few days now, but I was too occupied with the cats to write an update. The specialist said it would take “weeks and months” for the cough to go away, but it took less than 2…


  • Trying out Kit Cat 150g today and more about Fur/Ball

    I ordered Kit Cat 70g/80g (which was a huge success yesterday), 150g (trying out today) and 400g (not tried yet). Actually, I did not even know that Kit Cat had cat food in Malaysia. I thought it was only the cat litter. By the time I found out, the importer is already discontinuing Kit Cat…


  • Trying out Kit Cat canned food from Ecopet

    I bought three types of Kit Cat canned food to try: the 70g/80g, the 150g (on half price due to stock clearance) and the 400g. Today I tried the 70g and 80g. The proof of the pudding is in the eating – Juno loved it! I have been having so many challenges in feeding Juno…


  • Trying out Little Bitez from Cindy&Friends

    Today, I tested this treat called Little Bitez from Cindy&Friends. Initially the Monsters liked it. Riley no, but Tabs yes. Samantha and Kai were interested too. It comes in 3 series, ie. Farm, Surf and Turf. It is a good treat as the first ingredients are meat. Unfortunately, after the initial excitement, none of our…

    Taman Kinrara1, please keep all your animals indoors.


  • Taking care of ourselves, for the sake of our pets

    I was talking to a friend today and realise that there are loyal blog followers who are not my personal Facebook friends, or those who don’t live-and-breathe Facebook. I actually don’t either, but I have to paste our link on Facebook for the sake of those who live-and-breathe Facebook! I usually share health information on…


  • Are you just super fussy or are you ill, Juno?

    It has been very difficult to feed Juno. Ever since my hospitalisation and she’s been going in with the Blondies for some morning sunshine, I guess she has picked up their habits of being choosy over food. Luckily she hasn’t picked up their habit of peeing all over the place. Or has she? Riley is…
