• All’s well with Ginger and Smurfy

    Poop check – none and no diarrhoea. Smurfy and Ginger have really good appetite now, so I think they are definitely on the mend from that short episode of diarrhoea due to stomach upset. But yet, I don’t dare give them too much food at one go. And as always, once cats recover from any…


  • How about Primal, Blondies?

    Today, I tried Primal Freeze-Dried (raw food) again with the Blondies. Yups, I have not given up yet. Poor Tabs, she was crazy for it, but she cannot eat too much as the protein content is way too high for her. But just so that she’s not left out, I gave her a little bit…


  • Training Gerald

    Haha…if only Gerald could be “trained”! Anyway, I’m hoping to train Gerald to eat some Coco&Joe’s and Cubgrub (for convenience, I’ll call this processed raw food) so that his meals are more balanced. Otherwise, he’s mostly on raw chicken gizzards and breast meat. But with Gerald, you can get it terribly wrong. Sometimes, he will…


  • Why Indra keeps sneaking out

    Because she just wants to sit with me! That’s all. So she got a few hours with me today and I hope she’s happy!


  • All okay at Ginger’s Catio

    Dateline: Today, 1.30pm No diarrhoea! Just slightly soft stools from Ginger and Smurfy today. Also, from Juno. But all with form. All three have been eating very well. I’ve personally collected Rey, Lynx, Minnie and Robin’s faeces and none of them has diarrhoea. So while Juno’s was due to a coccidia infection, Ginger and Smurfy’s…


  • “Compensation” puff balls for Juno

    Since Juno is not allowed free access to any feathered toys, I’ve compensated this restriction by buying her 24 new puff balls! Juno absolutely LOVES to play with feathers, but she is only allowed to do so under strict supervision. Yesterday, I caught her trying to eat the feathers again. She can share these puff…


  • Soft, well-formed stools from Smurfy!

    Finally, the magic happened at 6.05am just now. I heard Smurfy scratching at the sand and he was squating. It’s soft, but at least there is form now. It’s definitely an improvement from yesterday. Yay! Robin is still hassling Smurfy. But he is safe up here from the bully. I’ll monitor Smurfy and see if…


  • Are the diarrhoea episodes finally over?

    There were no loose stools or, for that matter, any stools, in the sandpit boxes early this morning at Ginger’s Catio. I got up at 3.50am to check. Minnie finally ate and quite heartily too. I’m so relieved. Because if ever Minnie falls ill, how am I going to get her treated when I still…


  • Juno has solid stools

    I was wondering why I didn’t see any of Juno’s stools in the two litter boxes all day today except for once in the early morning. Then, I realised why…she has been spending a lot of time upstairs. So I went up to check the litter box upstairs and true enough, there were two spots…


  • Ginger has almost-solid stools!

    I’ve been doing poop checks every hour. In the last few hours, Ginger and Smurfy have been asking for their regular food. Both have absolutely refused to eat ID (sigh). Maybe they associated it with the feeling of being sick. Maybe they feel better now so they want back their regular food. Smurfy has been…


  • The big difference between Creamy and Gerald

    Of course every cat is different. But here’s one big difference between Creamy and Gerald. When Creamy arrives to eat, he doesn’t make a sound. But somehow I’d know he is here. At most, he will watch from the door to attract my attention. And he will eat heartily. He’s not choosy. All he wants…


  • 3.15pm poop check – all good

    So far, so good. Touchwood! There has been no diarrhoea from Ginger, Smurfy or anyone since the last one at 8.30am by Smurfy. Everyone looks okay too. Rey Robin Smurfy; it’s going to rain so he usually hides out in his big cage. It’s good that all day, Smurfy has been around in the open…


  • Smurfy to vet’s (loose stools)

    I managed to get an appointment for Smurfy today. The vet checked and Smurfy’s temperature is normal, but his gut sounds quite gassy. There was insufficient fecal sample from the thermometer to check for anything though the slide was prepared and looked at under a microscope. It is probably a tummy upset like Ginger’s due…


  • Smurfy’s loose stools and Robin the hero

    Smurfy showed me that he had loose stools at 8.36am just now. It’s also blood-tinged, so I’m going to take him to the vet’s. It’s endless, isn’t it? Well, of course it is, when does sickness and aging ever end for any living being, right? That’s just life. Smurfy actually waited for me to sit…


  • Juno’s updates

    Juno is now 1.52kg! Her stools are still a bit soft and wet, but her appetite is really fantastic and she is very active. There is also weight gain every day now. Juno can already receive her second vaccination this weekend.
