Waiting For Bunny To Poop….
25th Mar 2019, by AnimalCare
I got up early this morning, before 5am, hoping to catch Bunny pooping….
But he only showed me this (peeing). Twice.
No poop at his usual place. There was a big one there yesterday, after the rain, but I cannot be sure if it’s his. I need to see it with my own eyes, he doing it.
His morning medication – the Lactulose and the Omeprazole. See how I’ve made the capsule so much smaller?

Bunny, Did You Poop?
24th Mar 2019, by AnimalCare
I don’t know if he did….
I left the house for taiji for about 2 hours this afternoon, so I wasn’t able to monitor him.
But he ate very well just now, there’s been no vomiting and he is as happy as a lark.
I have already given him the 2nd dose of Lactulose and his ear drops.
I wish I could feel his colon and check for the presence of stools, but tried as I did, I could not feel it at all. Sigh…
So, I’ll just watch him for tonight to see if there’...

Heidi And Her Box
24th Mar 2019, by AnimalCare
Whenever there is a new box in the house….
If it fits, I sit.
But Tabs goes by that principle too – it definitely fits, so she sits.
And Tabs isn’t budging.
How about this nice white basket instead, Heidi?
But I want that new box….
There are old boxes in the kitchen, all laid out, but no, it has to be this new box.
Later, there was a huge cat-and-mouse chase in the kitchen, battling for the box.
And now?
Okay, game over, we can send the box for recycling already&h...

Bunny Goes To The Vet (constipation And Early Kidney Degeneration)
24th Mar 2019, by AnimalCare
I noticed Bunny crouching this morning, like he was straining to defecate.
Then, he vomited all his breakfast out. I waited a bit, and gave him some canned chicken, which he was able to retain but later, he vomited clear bile.
In 2014, Bunny had a chronic vomiting episode which no vet could figure out, and finally, it resolved by itself, after months. Even did TCM and that did not work either.
Being FIV+, Bunny has had a long and colourful medical history.
So, not taking any chances, I took him ...

Getting Mr Zurik To Eat (more)
24th Mar 2019, by AnimalCare
Mr Zurik started being the perfect host to Buddy (the neighbour’s cat). He welcomed Buddy to the porch, shared his food and left food for him.
Mr Z was a very gracious host.
Then, Buddy took advantage of him and started snatching his food.
This was during the time when I was busy with looking after Vincent and did not have time to monitor the entire feeding session in the porch.
Mr Zurik started losing weight and became quite thin.
Now, we have to shoo Buddy away because Mr Zurik doesn&rsq...

Bunny And Ginger
24th Mar 2019, by AnimalCare
From one super-alpha to another fast-becoming-alpha….
https://myanimalcare .org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/WhatsApp-Video-201 9-03-22-at-17.46.28.mp4
Bunny does not spare Ginger and Heidi. But he remembers Tabs and will not attack her.
Heidi is terrified of Bunny and runs whenever Bunny comes out. But Ginger stands his ground (is he standing his ground or he thinks the whole world is good, we are not sure).

Who Wants To Be The Next Taiji Cat?
23rd Mar 2019, by AnimalCare
As you all know, Heidi is our taiji cat. She’s been practising taiji with us for years now. I bet she knows all the moves.
But our taiji practice at the park is also Heidi’s exercise sessions because she will do her “100m” sprints and sometimes, dashes up a tree. She’s very happy doing this, and she gets her half-boiled egg yolk after the session.
Looks like Tabs wants to be our next taiji cat!
Note: Never learn taiji from watching a video. Always learn it fr...

The “bread Peisi” Method Of Pilling A Cat
23rd Mar 2019, by AnimalCare
My friend, Cathy, devised this absolutely ingenious method, and coined it the “bread peisi” (“peisi” being Cantonese for “nose dirt”…hahaha).
And it’s so ingenious because the bread completely wraps in the (bitter) tablet and no matter how many times the cat spits it out, as long as it remains tightly wrapped, it doesn’t taste bitter at all, unlike using wetfood to wrap a tablet (where the tablet will dissolve making the whole thing bitter a...

Cow Mau And His First Pilling Session
22nd Mar 2019, by AnimalCare
Do you remember how challenging and utterly difficult it was to pill Cow Mau previously? It was near impossible.
Well, I have to pill him twice a day, for 5 days now, before his tooth extraction and again, for another 5 days, after.
My friend, Cathy, devised an ingenious way to pill her cat, who also went through major tooth extraction recently. Wrap the pill in bread, she said.
I thought it was brilliant.
So, this morning, I steamed the bread we have so that it would be soft.
That’s the ...

FIV Cats – Learn All About It
21st Mar 2019, by AnimalCare
A short and informative article: https://loveyourferalfelines.com/fiv -learn-all-about-it
From the article:
Question: Can FIV be spread through casual contact, such as cats sharing the same food or water bowls, or cats grooming each other?
NO! FIV is transmitted to other felines primarily through deep, penetrating bite wounds. Casual contact of cats living in the same household does not spread the virus. On rare occasions, the virus can be transmitted from a mo...
