Gargoyle in the house


Sometimes I do not understand san's sense of humour. 
Tanaka went to the vet today for his checkup. I was worried that his numbers may be worse as he has more trouble eating these days. But the mirtazapine seems to help him and he does not need it regularly, which is a blessing. His kidney numbers are stable and he is still within stage 2, but at the higher end. It has been about 5 years now. Even so, we are thankful to this.

Saturday Nap


This morning Tanaka and I went to see Dr L for our muscles and bones. We had a new transport service to take us as the old one went out of business. san thinks they were much affected by Corvid 19. san had to rush this morning and so forgot to bring Tanaka's harness. When Dr L was massaging his muscles, he jumped out of his carrier and ran off at the Biopolis. The Biopolis is a very big and strange place and if he gets lost, its would be almost impossible to find him. san was horrified but she managed to keep her cool and called his name gently. san said that Tanaka must have been quite surprised as well as he turned around to wait for san but as he was walking (not running) san managed to catch up with him and caught him. It was such a tiring day that I just needed a nap.

Akira's musings


These days I like sleeping here as the couch is right under the fan so its cool. san sits here everyday as well. I don't really like it when Rez sits here by himself as he disturbs my brother Tanaka alot and I have to discipline him everyday. I think he is more afraid of me than of san and sometimes I rescue san as well. All this tires me out.

Last night san woke me up as she said I was meowing in my sleep. These days san worries about me alot as I just came back from hospital. I decided after that to just sit on her for abit to comfort her. Is it any wonder that I sleep so much?

Monday Walk After Rain


san really regretted updating our blog and using the new blogger interface. It took her many minutes just trying to negotiate an unfamiliar space. I told her she should just go back to the old interface but when she said to me, "Bujang how do I do that?", I told her I am her cat and not her teacher. 

Today san decided to bring us out in the evening. It was right after the rain so it was cool and the air smelled different. Even the sounds were different. We heard more cars and young children running and yelling. Tanaka did not like it much and spent much of the time hiding behind me. So san decided to take just a quick walk. This is our covered walkway and if it should suddenly rain, we have walkways that would allow us to walk to other blocks or buildings under cover. But it will not be so much fun though as the way would usually just be at void decks and we will see a lot of concrete instead of trees.

Easy Peasy Sunday

We were at the park around 7ish this morning. We were glad to be there before the sun got too hot. There were many people running so it was safer for us to be in our stroller. This is my favourite park when san used to bring me for walks but now we only sit in the stroller as san suspects that I got sick from walking about here.  Just as long as I do not walk on the grass, san thinks its ok. 

san made us take a picture here as she liked the way the trees look. She was waiting for the man in red to move away but he suddenly began to walk about in circles so she just took the pic. When I saw the picture I told san the man in red was a good addition. We had a nice morning and we are grateful for that.

san and me

This was san and me 5 years ago. san was looking through her digital album and saw this one of us. Its not often that I let san take a picture like this so its precious to us.

Sunday in the park

We were at the park quite early but the sun was already out. san was very pleased that she managed to trick Rezki into getting in the stroller although he made a fuss throughout our whole walk but we didn't mind. There were only 4 of us - myself Bujang, Tanaka, Rezki and Popps. Akira stayed home as she is a homebody and dislikes being outside . Rezki kept chatting with the other park users much to san's amusement and we saw many runners as well. But it soon became too hot for san and we had to go home.

Just Because Bujang

Just Because it's my turn. 
san says its too hot to go for a walk but I don't think so. If she had woken up at 4 am like I asked her to, we could have gone for our walk. Sometimes I despair of her.
