Sunday Quiet

 

Momo was angry and fearful yesterday but she still came out from under the couch to stare at some repairmen in the house. She was very cross and didn’t move from her ca seat. Sky on the other hand was very hospitable and curious about the tools in the house. She examined each one carefully and even said hello to the repairmen. Manju was nowhere to be seen as usual. He is afraid of many things even after living here for at least 2 plus years. 

Manju loves his sister Momo and sits with her at the window every morning on the weekends. They wait for birds to sit outside the window and chat at them every chance they get. 

Weekend vibes

Saturday is always a good day when San is home. We had all the windows open, and we felt the cool breeze . San was happy because our brother Manju is doing well, and things finally seem to be settling down.

We each sat at our usual windows, watching the day outside while San did her chores. We’ve learned that if she sees us looking very interested in what’s going on outside, she’s less likely to ask us to help.

It’s been a good week for all three of us. Manju even managed to get some of his old food back. He told Chris the new diet and the wet food tasted funny and that he was completely fine now — so he should really go back to his old food.

He might be a little silly if he thinks San believed that completely. San had a good laugh. 

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. 

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
