Husband had an idea today – why don’t we let Rey into Bunny’s Place and see if this can stop Gerald’s yowling? Well, it’s worth a try. Anything to stop the yowling is worth a try! Not only did Rey come over, but the whole gang did. Everyone. But take a look, Gerald isn’t at…

The boys played with the Monsters today! Jayden is more familiar with the cats as he grew up with them. Best friends since young! Ryan is learning not to fear the cats. The boys played from the Catio into Bunny’s Place. They had lots of fun with all the cats! Inside the house, they normally…

Creamy was here the very first thing in the morning. I already saw him sitting atop one of our cars from the CCTV when I got up. He was very hungry too. I first gave him a big bowl of wet food which he finished, but he stayed at the door, and kept looking in.…

Gerald protested by not eating this morning. While I managed to feed each of the Blondies, which was challenging enough, Gerald still did not want to eat, no matter what I offered him. Yesterday, he made a dash out of Bunny’s Room, ran to the front door and asked to go out. Of course I…

I haven’t written enough about our lovely Monsters lately, with so much focus on the Blondies and now, on Gerald. So this post is about the Monsters. Ginger is the big boss of the Catio. The Monsters live to serve him. Lynx is a totally affectionate cat but he bites. This is Minnie, the matriarch.…

I still miss Misty very much. It hasn’t been easy even though I have so much to do daily. Gardening with the Monsters nearby. Waiting each day for the lemons to ripen. Compared with the Blondies, the Monsters are actually so much easier to look after, especially when it comes to feeding – they eat…

There’s still the yowling, but luckily, Gerald hasn’t resorted to yowling in the middle of the night…yet. Generally, he yowls the moment he wakes up from a nap. My vet-friend told me that for outdoor cats, they are so used to roaming after they get up, so that’s why Gerald yowls. He wants to roam.…

After getting the cream for that red spot and the ear lotion, Tabs has been visibly and definitely more comfortable. No more rubbing her head on Tupperware containers since then too. And she’s been taking long naps as well. Tabs and Riley, relaxing in the kitchen.

It’s getting to be even harder to feed the Blondies with Gerald’s influence. Gerald, unlike the Monsters, is also a very picky eater. One would think that being an outdoor cat, he would eat anything that’s served? Not true. Because I have to stop Gerald’s early morning yowling the moment I wake up or come…

Tabs has started balding again. It is almost a once-a-year issue for her previously. Last year, she didn’t have it, though. When she used to, the problem was usually resolved using Advocate spot-on for 2-3 months consecutively. But this time, the bald spots are all located at the subcut needle pricks. So she has small…

Gerald’s yowling was pretty bad yesterday. It is very, very stressful. I spoke with my vet-friend about it and her views are practical and realistic. She agrees that not all cats are happy living indoors and the yowling is not only stressful to humans, but also to our other cats. That is a factor I…
