It’s not all bad




We have had some rather difficult days. My brother Manju decided that his new diet was absolutely not to his liking and, in protest, sometimes refused to eat it. The vet gave him an appetite stimulant to encourage him to reconsider his position. After a day or two, he managed to accept the arrangement — but only when San  mixed it with some of Momo’s biscuits and a bit of wet food. He is very dramatic as you can see from his pose. 

San is also trying to work out the best way to deal with his nails. She has ordered a new set of nail clippers and a swaddle cloth. I do not think this will go smoothly, but I shall be supervising the entire operation very closely. 

San was relieved that Momo was not troubled by any of this and carried on with her usual important activities. I, meanwhile, have been making an effort to be extra nice to San. This morning I even spent some quality time with her and graciously allowed her to take my picture for posting. 

Apart from my brother’s culinary objections, Momo and I have had a perfectly good week

Hopeful New Year

 


We hope the horse brings us good things especially for our brother Manju. He went to the vet again yesterday as he threw up three times. He got crazy mad and didn’t let  the vet help him at all.  San said perhaps his trauma from the stool sample incident made him behave like that as he was always calm before. San had Chris talk to him and he told Chris that he likes female vets as he is used to being around women (us included). So san will bring him to see Dr S, his old vet if things still do not improve for him. Manju now has the reputation of being ‘Just like Bujang but more fierce!’ San doesn’t think this is a good thing but we shall see.

What’s that san?

 

This morning we had a late breakfast as san decided she needed more sleep. She has cleaned all the bins and disinfected all our water bowls and fountains after breakfast san opened the door for us. We heard some strange sounds outside and decided to investigate. There was a big pigeon sitting on the balcony and hidden behind our plants. We just looked and chattered to it but it didn’t reply. How rude!

Friday with Manju

   

San said it was time for a change of diet - something high fibre would  have to do. I had not gotten over what was ailing me and my digestive problems seemed much the same. The vet called and told her the stool test results were unremarkable.  San seemed pleased. The vet recommended an abdominal scan but san told him I needed a rest from such things. I was very pleased with san and decided to show her my happy dance.
