Gotanjoji Temple, The “Cat Temple” In Echizen, Japan 5th May 2024, by AnimalCare
A charming temple beloved by cat fans, Gotanjoji Temple is a Soto Zen Buddhist temple known for its cats, who are cared for by the temple monks. The former abbot started caring for cats during his time, where he took in abandoned cats, got them vaccinated and neutered too.

Gerald And Misty Today 5th May 2024, by AnimalCare
All is well with Gerald and Misty today.
It’s back to normal for them now.
Gerald doesn’t whine, he just calls to make his entrance each time.
This morning, after I observed both of them atop the car in the porch, I still did not go out. By the time I did, Gerald had gone away. Only Misty remained.
So I let Misty in to eat breakfast.
She was more comfortable eating outside in the porch. But I still hope and aim to let her in every day, even for a little while so that she feels comf...

Robin’s Balding Issue 5th May 2024, by AnimalCare
I did not take Robin to the vet’s today for his balding issue, but I took photos to show the vet.
Since he is itching, it is more than a cosmetic problem and needs to be addressed.
The vet said it could be due to a food allergy problem too and the only way would be to restrict him to just one single protein for about 2 months!
No one else has this balding problem in the Catio, only Robin.
The vet also advised me to put Advocate spot-on for Robin on a monthly basis and this time, I will be...

Indra To The Vet’s (loose Stools) 5th May 2024, by AnimalCare
I managed to resolve Kai and Akira’s loose stool problem, but not Indra’s.
Early this morning, I found several spots of loose stools, so I sifted through the CCTV playback to identify whose it was. It was Indra’s.
Hence, I took Indra along with Tabs to the vet’s today. Better have her checked.
As it turned out, Indra has a fever. Her ears were really hot and her temperature was 39.3 degrees.
Luckily I brought her!
But she’s still as active as ever. And also eating w...

Tabs To The Vet’s (recheck After 3 Weeks Of Increased Subcut Fluids) 5th May 2024, by AnimalCare
Today was Tabs’ check-up after 3 weeks of daily 150ml subcut fluids.
She already improved so much in appetite and demeanour once I increased the subcut fluids. She is also on the AIM food.
It’s encouraging news from the blood test results.
Her creatinine is stable, her urea came down (this was the main concern the last time) and her phosphate is normal.
The urea came down from 16.6 to 13.8 now. The vet says it’s good. I can decrease the subcut to 6 days per week instead o...

The Sound Of Silence At Dawn (improved!) 5th May 2024, by AnimalCare
I have been up since 5.30am this morning and it’s been quiet….
And look at what I am seeing in the CCTV footage right now….
Misty and Gerald are both on one of our cars.
But, Gerald is not whining!!!!!!!
Last time, the moment I even turn in bed, he would know and the whining would start, but now, I’ve been downstairs on the computer doing my work for almost 1 hour and there’s not the slightest sound!
I’m going to see how long the silence will last before th...

How Are The Blondies Now? 4th May 2024, by AnimalCare
With Gerald and Misty back in the porch, there’s peace in Bunny’s Place again.
Well, at least it’s quiet and the Blondies can take restful naps without having to listen to the constant nonstop loud whining.
The Blondies were having loose stools for a few days, starting with Kai, then Akira and lastly, Indra.
I’ve solved Kai and Akira’s problem, but Indra is still having it.
After so many days of being on canned chicken because of their loose stools, they crave for ...

Gerald And Misty Are In The Porch! 4th May 2024, by AnimalCare
Gerald and Misty practically spent all day in our porch today!
AND….there was absolutely no whining at all.
Gerald made the breakfast call, as usual and so I thought it would be safer to let them into the house to eat since it’s still dark outside.
However, Gerald was unhappy that I closed the door. He wanted to go back out.
It’s almost like he’s saying, “Don’t you try your raffia string trick on me…I’m not going to be trapped again or I will wh...

Neutering Aid For 3 Cats In Kluang (Yu Bee Kian’s) & Updates 4th May 2024, by AnimalCare
We have provided a full sponsorship for RM450 for the neutering of these 3 cats.
Ms Yu does her CNRM work with Mr Cheng Pet Sing. Her cats are all housed in a rented house (specially for the cats). It used to her father’s house, but he has since passed away. Mr Cheng goes in daily to clean up the house and the cats’ litter. Ms Yu also visits daily to feed the cats and she spends almost all day there on weekends. We do understand that in certain areas, neutered animals just cannot be ...

Medical Aid For 1 Cat In Cheras (Lee Soo Farng’s) – Grey’s Final Aid 4th May 2024, by AnimalCare
We have given the balance of RM334.60 to Soo Farng for the next few acupuncture sessions or any other medical expenses for Grey.
Grey was rescued by Lee Soo Farng on 8th April 2024 after she spotted him dragging his legs on the road the day before. It was discovered later that Grey was hit by someone’s autogate which resulted in a nerve injury.
Before rescuing Grey, Soo Farng had asked a friend of AnimalCare if we could sponsor treatment for Grey. We agreed but it would have to be a specia...

Jayden Plays With Ginger 3rd May 2024, by AnimalCare
A few days ago, when we were all busy doing something (now, I cannot for the life of me remember what it was!), Jayden was playing with his old friend, Ginger.
Ginger was in this blue basket and Jayden was dragging him all over the house and talking to him!

The Blondies And Their Loose Stools 3rd May 2024, by AnimalCare
It has been a few days ago when I noticed loose stools in the sandpit and one particular litter box.
Just before that, there was one day when I saw the remains of three cockroaches in Bunny’s Place. And coincidentally it was around that time that I gave everyone a pinch of greens.
So I’m not sure what caused the loose stools – was it ingesting the cockroaches or the pinch of greens?
Initially I thought it was Gerald, but CCTV showed it wasn’t him.
It was actually Kai. So ...

Gerald Came Back For Dinner 3rd May 2024, by AnimalCare
I heard faint mewing from the neighbour’s roof and Misty bounded ever so happily to greet her best friend, Gerald, coming back from somewhere, as usual.
Gerald’s back for dinner!
Gerald likes canned food.
And I invited both of them in.
I also closed the door to see how they would react. After eating, Gerald immediately started whining loudly. He went upstairs too. Misty hid behind the curtains.
Finally, the whining was too much, so I opened the door and Gerald went back out to the...

Misty’s In The Porch, And The House! 3rd May 2024, by AnimalCare
Misty came into the house and went into the kitchen for dinner just now.
That is Misty eating dinner. She loves kibble.
Even before this, Gerald seldom came for dinner. He would come for tea time, usually. So I think he has a “home” somewhere, and perhaps that was why he was whining and pining nonstop when I confined him for those 18 days.
Sorry, Gerald….
Misty did not want to go back to Bunny’s Place even when I opened the door wide.
She finally decided she wanted t...

The Reinforced Cat Tree 3rd May 2024, by AnimalCare
As promised, Tony came to reinforce the cat tree yesterday.
With extra screws and soldering, it is as solid as steel now and not at all wobbly. But guess what, nobody wanted to use it!
When it was wobbly, everyone went up and wobbled around. Now, that it is super solid, nobody went up!
Just give them some time, they will use it, I’m very sure!
