Princess Akira on the job...

Yup. First I need to sharpen my claws...

Then I need to take my well-deserved rest...

I must get my two paws together in a special way...

Ooahhh...this is the life..my personal cushion...even on Saturday

Ms Akira requested my presence in the computer room. She likes sitting on my lap and spending quiet time like this. This has become our ritual everyday, even when I don't have to use the computer so sometimes we sit in the dark together :) It calms her down and I get to spend time with her away from the boys.

Battling Bruffers on Saturday afternoon

Ok. Its time to take pikshurs again...

Squashed in between cool pillows...

The breeze keeps me cool...

Battling bruffers ...not!

The boys are all on grandma's bed as she has got new sheets and the windows are open to the breeze :) Looking at them here, no one would think they battle each night like 2 wrestlers from WWE.

Hello Spencer

Spencer all wrapped up on a rainy day

We decided to put up our friend Spencer's picture in our blog since her mom is very busy fighting the H1N1. We have not seen Spencer for some time but as you can see, she is very well taken care of and very warmly too :)

Hello Monday

Is it Monday already?

Monday came to meet us bright and early. Bujang wanted to get out of the room at 5.30 am and he made sure I heard him. I decided to get up anyway eventhough I didn't have to go to work today and cleaned up house. I gave Megat his dose of polymva and all the boys sat close by. Grandma said it was very sweet of them to be so concerned but I suspect its the salmon treats they all get after the whole operation is over :))

Are you looking at me?

Megat on Monday morning...

Hiding out from the camera..phzewww!!

Megat is well this morning, much better than he was last Saturday where he was a little more sleepy than usual. He is heavier and his fur a little longer than before. Its all that ling zhi he is taking I'm sure. The doc weighed him last Tuesday and he was just a little heavier at 3.56 from 3.5 but every bit of weight is a good sign of good appetite, even with the vincristine. He is in the process of marking the whole house with his scent, much to the disgust of all the boys in the house :)

Goodnight Sunday

Time to go to bed...goodnight...

I had to give Tanaka this cheetah in place of his usual ginger kitty as we had to wash his kitty this morning. It had fallen into his bowl of water and got really wet but Tanaka does not seem to mind :)

Hmmmm...Sunday ...

A strange thing happened...

Bujang did not protest when Megat sat close to him. Megat actually decided that the coast was clear for him to get up on the cat seat and hang out with the rest of the boys. He did not budge when Bujang stared at him and BUjang decided to live and let live . Tanaka of course did not care one way or the other :)

What is that?

Bujang got quite a shock at the sound of the kompang...

Rain notwithstanding Sunday saw many rainbow Malay weddings and intense drumming. The amigos were not pleased and their ears pricked like antaennas with each drum beat. We also heard the kompang singing Arabic songs at the top of their lungs. Bujang captured the amigo reaction best - What's that!?

Rainy Sunday

Ooohhh....is there nothing to do?

Bujang taking over Tanaka's blanket...its warmer on rainy Sunday...

Tanaka taking refuge..away from THE BOSS...

Toro sleeping at the edge of my vanity... and away from THE BOSS

This Sunday was quiet and everyone was just too sleepy for words. We were glad that it was cooler though and after many hot days, the cool air was like a new skin :)

Megat on Sunday

Yes I think I look very well indeed

Megat is looking well today although he is rather sleepy. Sister S also said that his breath does not smell anymore. His eyes also do not water anymore and he has spurts of energy that he uses to chase Bujang out of his space...but not too close. I think its the supplements but we have to still see his ultra sound and blood tests to tell if its doing its work. I am also glad that this week, he seemed to drink a little more by himself although I do still give him syringed water with his supplements and he is 'going' regularly :) My hope is a small one - that his wbc would be more than 2.5 so he can go on with his chemo treatment next Tuesday. I think next week if he gets his vincristine drug (which is more potent than his endoxan) he would have to be syringed everyday as I notice that he would not drink by himself when he is on the chemo drug.

Today he is exceptionally affectionate and demanded many scritches and caresses from me. I do not know if he is being his usual affectionate self or that he just needs more show of affection. He drank his 25 ml of syringed water as he did not drink the whole morning.

Sunday Unveiling

Ok san. You can take my pikshur if you want...

Lets get it going...I'm getting sleepy from all this...

zzz....

Toro is looking very neat and young in his new haircut. I had to tell the groomer to trim him close. We had a small discusion as to what close meant- to shave or not to shave. One of his groomers -Olay (I heard him tell me that that was his name) asked me if I liked the way he looked before. It seemed that this cut is called NO. 5. The only downside is I had told him not to cut the fur on his head but as you can see from the pic, he had an all-over No 5 cut. I was concerned that grandma would be upset with the cut but she didn't say anything about it other than he seemed to be very 'proud' and would not sit with her now that he has had anew haircut :)
