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. 

Manju The Gangsta Boy II

 

Manju had to go to the vet last Friday after his digestive system went completely haywire. At one point, he went three times and left puddles in every bin.

The vet took blood and stool samples. San said he screamed and roared—and managed to draw blood from two nurses. The humans in the waiting area were thoroughly shocked.

Manju then growled at San for daring to take him to the vet and didn’t stop until he was back home and had a very thorough wipe-down. 

The next day, he was more relaxed and sat outside with san and us for a bit. He even showed interest in the corridor garden. The vet had just given him deworming tablet and told san that he didn’t need anything else as his stool was firm with just a little wet tip. He was on the mend when san brought him to the vet. 

But we told san that we were grateful that we live inside and that she was worried enough to send him to the vet just to be safe  

By the way, the vet now calls him Gangsta Boy II after Bujang. 

Sunday Games…zzz

 

San tried to take our Sunday pictures this morning. We showed her our true faces. She had been watching GOT, eight years after it came out (or some such thing) when she was on medical leave. We think she got through Series 3 before she got a little confused with the many houses. It is a good thing we have only ONE house - The House of Cats. 

There was a little commotion along the corridor when the Little People passed by our house. They spoke loudly. Momo tried to stare them into silence to no avail. I, Ser Mizu decided to relax on my watchtower and I pretended  to be alert but I was actually much too sleepy. Ser Skywalker of course didn’t try and she is always true to herself. She continued to nap during the commotion. 

I told san she should just watch plant videos when she is not well and leave GOT alone. She said she would watch until the dragons fly. I sometimes think humans do not know what is good for  them. Hmmm…

SER MIZU

Finally

San had a hard time trying to post this morning. Her iPhone told her that it could not access her Google account. So after much dilly-dallying , she figured she could just copy and paste my picture today. 

I feel much better after a day or two of digestive problems and soft stools. I didn’t have any new food at all so san was and still mystified. She thought I was better but this morning it happened again. So she will give me my probiotics as well as the FORTE. 

But all in all we are feeling fine and san has gotten over her hacking cough. Now she just coughs some of the time  and we are grateful for that . 

Monday news

San came home at noon after going to school. She had gone to the doctors office as well and she got an mc for tomorrow. The doctor told her to ‘wear your mask and rest.’ So she opened up the window for us when she got home. It was cooler eventhough outside was very hot. San told us we were lucky to have our fur short as if not, life would not be so pleasant. 
 

Sunday with san

 San is srill  coughing quite a bit today, so we’ve declared it a quiet day. She told us we’re very good kitties and said she’s glad we’re so thoughtful. We took excellent care of her all day yesterday. Manju slept through the entire shift. San says he’s still a kitten, so clearly he needs just as much rest as she does

Saturday Guard Duty

San told me that I should take care of the family today as she was not feeling too well. She came home yesterday with a cold. She thinks it’s because there was too much to do all at once in the new term after the slow living of last month. Also the gangsta mynah has been acting up and behaving badly at my window. I am well up for it. Bring it on mynah !
 

Mizu Manju

I am now wearing my old tag. San said Mizu is my name although she has yet to call me that. I asked her what it meant. She said it meant water’ as when I was younger I was like water. She also said it was the name that her sister gave me after the animated series ‘Blue Samurai’. But of course I only answer to Manju. San gave me the name as she said it sounded much more comfortable and fun. So Manju is my real name but Mizu is my ‘glamour’ name as we say in Singapore. 

 

Busy not busy

 San waited for me to finish making biscuits for Sunday breakfast. I think I did well. 

Saturday Notes

We went for a haircut yesterday. San was concerned about the little matted fur under our chins. Since they were close to our throats, san sent us to the professionals. It took about 4 hours which wasn’t bad for the both of us together. We didn’t like the way we look now but san said we won’t get too hot and bothered as the hotter months will be here soon enough. 

 This morning san allowed us to sleep in. We will be sleeping more than usual as the spa session usually tires us out. 

Friday Reminders

I was not pleased when san came home from camp at dark time. That was not reasonable. She said there was a campfire so she was late back. Hmmm… This morning, I sat in front of her when she was having breakfast. I told her ‘no more late campfires san. We need you to be home asap’. She was not surprised as last night ai did not sit with her at all to show her I was upset. San said she might be home early today but I should be prepared to take a little trip myself. ‘OH NO!!! GROOMING TIME’.
