Updates On Grey (from Lee Soo Farng)
19th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Grey went for his check-up on Wednesday, which is after 10 days of medication.
From Soo Farng:
Today’s follow up visit with the senior vet. My first time meeting him. Very gentle, soft spoke and knowledgeable. He explained Grey’s condition very clearly with X-ray and drawings. Giving Grey 3 months on Methycobal 500mg. (Prescribed 1 month for next visit). He taught me how to gently squeeze his bladder to induce urine so he won’t pee everywhere. He wrote a prescription for me ge...

Neutering Aid For 3 Cats In Kluang (Yu Bee Kian’s)
19th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
We have provided a full sponsorship of RM450 for the neutering of these 3 female cats.
Ms Yu Bee Kian is a new applicant who communicated with us months ago. According to her, she has rescued many cats and she houses them at home. She used her own money to get them neutered but she is in financial need now, hence, she heard about our aid and decided to apply to us.
She also gives medical treatment to any sick cats whom she rescues.
She is assisted by an elderly uncle by the name of Cheng Pet Sin...

How Is Tabs Coping?
19th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Tabs didn’t seem affected by the incident. Maybe she didn’t know about it at all.
But I must say that her appetite and demeanour have improved after we changed the subcut fluids to 150ml daily.
The only changes we did are: (1) daily Gabapentin, (2) Renal-Combi twice a day instead of once and (3) Subcut fluids increase to 150ml instead of 200ml three times a week.
Again, I cannot be sure which worked. Maybe all of them?
I also try to give her the AIM supplement daily. But this will r...

How Are The Monsters Coping?
19th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
The Monsters were clearly quite significantly affected after we trimmed and thinned out the foliage in the Catio.
But I think they are slowly adjusting to the “new environment” now.
Rey
Minnie
Ginger
Lynx
Smurfy – he has gone very cranky.
Robin – also a bit cranky.
Today, they are eating well again.
For the last few days since the incident, they weren’t.
The plants will grow back, everyone. But we will have to keep them from getting too lush.
We are getting...

How Are Misty And Gerald Settling In?
19th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Well, Gerald settled in instantly, of course! Even the incessant whining has decreased a lot now, to almost none or only when he is hungry, which is totally reasonable.
The Blondies love him and he’s made himself very at home.
Misty, on the other hand, started by intimidating the Blondies, which isn’t surprising as it is probably a defence mechanism at work. But even that has reduced a lot now.
I did not think it would be so easy for them to settle in, but it seems that way.
I also t...

My Friend’s Recent Reptilian Encounter (her Cats Saved Her Life)
19th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
When we told our part-time cleaner about our reptilian encounter, coincidentally, she said the house that she cleaned the day before in USJ11 also had a reptilian issue. She was so jittery.
Oh my…it’s the hot weather that’s drawing them out, isn’t it? They need to find cooler places.
Now, another one of my friends also had a recent encounter and hers is a scary one.
But, believe it or not, her three cats saved her life.
She lives in an area where there are cobras and pyt...

Craziness In The Catio
19th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
I didn’t know that trimming down the plants in the Catio would cause so much craziness and crankiness in the Monsters.
They are clearly upset that their mini jungle has been thinned out. There’s no place to hide or take an afternoon nap there anymore.
I think it shocked them, ie. “Oh no….what happened to our jungle?????”
Smurfy and Robin have gone crazy.
Minnie is so upset that the path up to her top-of-the-world platform is so exposed now.
Rey also isn’t him...

Riley…caught In The Act!
19th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Look, look!!
Riley’s doing it!
She’s just so clever, isn’t she?
Riley, is what I would call, a heaven-sent cat. Although she grew up on the street (I think?), she’s so friendly and incredibly easy-going. And she strives to please. There’s also no hostility in her at all.
The only issue I have with her is her grazing eating habits. She’s not your two-square meals type of cat. She grazes all day long.
And yet, she allows me to force feed her or to pill her. No ...

Riley Literally Toilet-Trained Herself
19th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
And I’m not talking about being litter-box trained. That’s normal. All cats know that. No training is required, it’s instinctive.
I’m talking about using our human toilet bowl.
Now, for the past weeks, I’ve been seeing unflushed urine in the downstairs toilet bowl and wondering who forgot to flush.
I found the answer this morning.
I missed the shot, but Riley was really squatting on the toilet, urinating into the toilet bowl.
Bunny used to be able to do that too.
S...

Misty’s Escape Route Revealed And Plugged!
18th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Our friend and contractor, Tony, arrived right on time at 10am this morning.
Misty was wary of a stranger being in her territory, so she went up to the top-of-the-world platform.
She did some down to kepoh a bit, but Samantha had already taken her basket.
Tony examined this spot where I think the escape route is and guess what? He says it’s impossible! There is absolutely no way she could get out from here.
Wow! That means I’ve got it all wrong. There must be another way.
Luckily ...

So, Did Misty Escape Last Night?
18th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Haha….no.
She is still here!
Maybe her visiting hours to the neighbourhood is around mid-morning, after makan?
Last seen last night, she was in this basket, and she greeted me from the basket this morning too.
Good morning, Misty! Glad you are still here.
Gerald and Misty, at the door, waiting for breakfast. They usually eat very early when I fed them at the porch.
Gerald rushed into the kitchen to eat while Misty ate at Bunny’s Place.
Last check at 7.15am – she&rsquo...

Playing A Game Of Patience With Misty
17th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
When I got Misty to come in, I kept her in the Safehouse with Riley and Tabs. There’s no escape from here.
But then she got restless and wanted to go and see Gerald, so I let her in.
I know that from Bunny’s Place, if my guess is right, she will escape through that hole. Bet for your victory at วางเดิม& #3614;ันเพื่&# 3629;ชัยชนะ 586;องคุณ...

Misty Is Back!!
17th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
4.08pm – I saw Misty atop my car!
Misty, you’re back!!!
Come in, please come in.
She wasn’t reluctant, which means, she probably doesn’t mind being in the house….
She just wants her freedom to roam. After all, she was born in the street and grew up there.
Getting her to come in sure is ten times easier than getting Minnie to go somewhere.
She’s in, although she did try to go out the moment I closed the door. But I was faster!
A reward for willingly comin...

The Monsters’ Protest
17th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Because of the recent reptilian experience, we thinned out all our plants, including the ones at Ginger’s Catio.
The lower parts have all been removed so that we can see more clearly if there is anything hiding down there.
The Monsters were very unhappy that their foliage has been reduced as they love to rest in their mini jungle.
Well, the plants will grow back in time, boys. But for now, for my own sanity, let’s all be as safe as we can be.
Outside too, we have trimmed and thinne...

Jayden And Ginger, His First Best Friend
17th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Ginger was already Jayden’s best friend when he first came to stay with us. That was when Jayden was just 2.5 months old.
The two are still best friends now.
Growing up with a pet or pets moulds a child’s personality. Children should not be deprived of the opportunity to learn kindness across species.

Creamy Visits
17th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Creamy had not come for a few days now. I suspect his family must have returned after the holidays.
But he is here right now. It is raining so heavily right now, but here he is.
Misty is not here.
She must have missed somewhere that she goes to and has gone there now.

I Found The Hole….(Misty’s Escape)
17th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Sigh….
I found the hole in Bunny’s Place from where Misty could have escaped.
But the hole is not visible from the ledge and I cannot see how Misty would have discovered it at all, but there you go…..
Cats are so, so smart.
I have since contacted two contractors now to see who can come and seal up the hole. As long as the hole remains, Misty will escape again and again.
So now, I think that’s how she escaped yesterday when the gardeners were here, and that’s als...

How Is Gerald And Misty’s Orientation Going On? (Where Is Misty?)
17th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
I got up really early today and have not gone back to sleep yet. I’m going to konk out soon!
So how is Gerald and Misty’s orientation going on so far?
As you know, I was already contemplating bringing in Gerald and Misty and making them indoor cats. My neighbourhood doesn’t take kindly to street animals (neutered or not, they don’t really care), many of them do not like the sight of any animal outside a human home.
So I did a first orientation which didn’t end up to...

Minnie’s 2nd Phantom Of The Opera Saga Ends!
17th Apr 2024, by AnimalCare
Minnie’s 2nd Phantom of the Opera saga officially ended this morning, at about 3.15am.
I got up before 3am and I thought it might be a good time to try and get Minnie to go back out to the Catio all my herself.
Husband was asleep, so there might be a chance. She’s scared of him. And that has caused her to hide behind the piano. She had just discovered yesterday that “behind the piano” is a good Phantom of the Opera lair. We cannot catch her because we cannot reach her and...
