Adopted _Ms Monday

We are pleased to announce that Ms Monday went to her Furrever Home yesterday. She was adopted by the same kind lady who adopted a calico rescue from us 3 years ago. Good Luck Ms Monday. There is a garden to run about in and a lot of love for you there. 

This is Twinkle, Ms Monday's sisfur. She has grown into a Diva from the little rescue kitty 3 years ago. 

Vet visits for the amigos

Heine welcoming the gang at the vet this morning - Poppy, Tanaka and Akira. The kidney results remained the same with only 1 point better or worse. The vet said it was neither good nor bad. But at least it was only the creatinine values that were problematic and not crea and bun (except for Rezki whose values for both are not so good). The only troubling thing was Akira's increase in calcium and she has no kidney issues at all. So she will go to the vet next week for ultra sound. 

      STOP that! My teeth are fine!

Ho hum! Please hurry up with the blood taking! If you're gonna steal my blood I thank you to be quick about it!

The vet said her teeth were not as good as the others but they do not warrant any repairs. 

Just Because

             Just hanging out 

Sunday News

Rez had his checkup yesterday as well as his first vaccination. The good news is he no longer needs SubQ. I'm sure he is relieved not to be poked with the needle every week. The not so bad news is his creatinine is still high at 2.7 but even this is better than the previous 2.8. The vet said he would be ok if he just eats kidney kibble as he is 5.04 kg and is in very good shape.  HIs BUN has gone up to 38 from the previous normal of 36. 

It has just been 2 months that he has had acupuncture and so I was not expecting a miracle. I will take 2.7 gladly. 

I have posted many entries for his adoption at FB and I am very glad that those posts have been shared many times over by the many kind friends that I have made there. I will still continue to post about him . 

I think he would need more care with Dr Oh, his acupuncturist. I am still trying to persuade Tanaka to be less anxious and to try playing with Rez so we will see about that. 

     His favourite morning pastime. 

Just hanging out watching the goings on in the house. 

The lesson about space, Rez is..

No. You can't sit there Rezki. It's my turn to sit here. We take turns!

Bujang was still scandalized that Rezki was in the cat tree. But he didn't try to intimidate him. Just hissed his warning. 

TGIF

            2 boys just hanging out

His would-be adopter decided not to go through with the trial stay as she said he was too old at 6 years. We were a little sad but we know it would probably take a longer time. Another person who wanted him already had 6 rescued cats. She said she would take him if he didn't mind a multi-cat situation. But we thought being the 7th kitty would not be fair to him nor the other 6 cats. So he is still here with us. 

Last night she chased Rez from the kitchen to the living room and to grandma's bedroom. She yelled a warrior yell and scared him half to death. So she got time-out and we had to rescue Rez from under the bed. She was not allowed to the kitchen for the rest of the time. 

Those 2 need help San. I just need some quiet. 

My favourite things in Georgetown Penang

     

I am glad to be able to see The Blue Mansion for our good friends The Poupounette. It is also called the Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion after the 1st Chinese Consul of Penang. There are tour guides and of course a portion of the mansion is reserved for paying guests. 

I also saw the marvelous Street Art of Georgetown (the capital of Penang). Georgetown is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has art prices dotted around all the streets done by the artists from Penang. 

Wall mural Boy on Chair. The chair is a real one. 

        'Rope Style'. Rope Walk was named after the rope making activities on the street. This is part of the 'voices of the people' series. This is one of the 52 rod iron sculptures that dot the capital. 

As its a World Heritage City, most tourists go about in these 4-seater vehicles although there are cars and motorcycles along the very narrow streets as well. 

The following are my 3 favourite doors along the same street of our hotel. They are very different and have their own voices as well. 

Saturday Easy

Bujang was quite upset when he saw me packing for my weekend in Penang. He sat with me and circled around the bag that I was bringing. I told him that I was going for a short break and would be back on Monday. But I thought it best to tell Fern as well in case he looks for me and gets upset. 

Fern:I talked to Bujang. He was quite nervous for a while when I was communicating. Thus I asked him to help Mummy look after everything in the house while Mummy's away, make sure things are ok, so that when Mummy comes back she'll be very happy and give him more treats that he likes. He became more calm and more relaxed and focused. I reassure him that Mummy comes back soon so no worries. 

Fern's recommendation:

I recommend as soon as you step back in the house, get the treats ready in your handbag and give him right away when he comes over and greets you. That's the image I sent to him while communicating.

The kitties last night were looking very well. 

Ramadan

                     I am 

 

                  Hungry

     I would like another breakfast

             We are cats San

We don't need to fast. But we hope 

YOU have a good Ramadan. We wish everyone who is celebrating Ramadan have a good month. 

But we are cats and we would appreciate a second breakfast. 

Hopeful Sunday

We are pleased to share some hopeful news about Rezki. This morning one of the hairdressers at the place I go to said she wanted to adopt him. YAY!!!

I had asked them last week but she said she would have to ask her mother and her husband first. They both said yes as they used to have a black cat as well who died of old age. 

I am very hopeful as they did not abandoned their old cat and had brought him with them when they moved house. She lives on the 7th floor but her house has grills and she would also mesh. 

I said  Rezki can go for a month trial when I get back from a short break in Penang  and all is settled.  I hope this materializes for Rez. 

Meanwhile Ms Monday

   

Ms Monday was feeling poorly and so she was transferred to another boarding situation to recuperate. She had antibiotics and meds for sneezing. Here she was trying to persuade someone to bring her home. We were very happy that the boarder told us someone was actually interested in her but as their situation was not yet stable, the boarder said they should wait a little until their own cat calms down a bit. We think she should be able to be rehomed quite quickly. However if her last place is not suitable for her, we might just board her here.
