Mama cat is getting better ...

From the desk of Mama Piggy:

... and noisier :)


Mama cat: I look unhappy?! You would too if you're holed up in a cage!

She has been meowing rather loudly quite a bit. I hope the neighbours won't find it a nuisance!

That aside, her sniffles is getting better. She can't wait to get out of the cage and toilet, but that would have to wait until she is in the clear and after we send her to the vet for her jabs.

In the meantime, Milo the scaredy cat has been hiding in our bedroom since Mama cat came home. We had to bring food and water to him =_= But this morning he ventured to the end of the hall (where the litter bin is now located) to pee.

Slowly and surely he will get used to Mama cat's meowing and strange noises from the bathroom! And soon enough, he will get to meet his "maker" :)

Muffy the psycho-kitty is still spooked, but less edgy.

Kootoo is ever ready to meet the newbie, but patience, my boy!

Welcome Mama!

From the desk of Mama Piggy:

Yes, we have an addition in the house :P


Tortie Mama is no longer a community cat :)

Tortie Mama, or affectionately known as Mama, is home with us.

As some of you would know, she is Milo's mommy. We sterilised her two and a half years ago and released her back in the estate.

About a week ago, we brought her to the vet as she was down with cat flu and had breathing difficulty. We had her hospitalised at the vet so that she can get her medicine regularly.

Papa Porky suggested that we adopt her. Well, it wasn't a tough decision, because Mama is really a very sweet girl, and if anything were to happen to her, I think we would be quite heart-broken.

My concerns were that she is down with flu, and of course, the stress of having to introducing the KMM to her. Plus the fact that the KMM have not had their vaccination in the past two years *ahem*

So we thought about this for a week. But when we visited Mama at the vet today, the answer was clear. We have to bring her home. There is no way she could recover from the flu if she is released back in the estate. Not with the year-end monsoon season. As for the KMM, well, they will get their long overdue jabs tomorrow and they just have to deal with a new kitty in the house, no? ;)

Mama, sorry it took us 2.5 years to realise that we care so much for you ...

Mama is now segregated from the rest in the kitchen toilet. The vet prescribed 10 days' dose of VibraVet and antihistamine tablets. When she is better, she will be introduced to the KMM.

So no, no happy reunion for Milo and Mama just yet ... but do watch this space :) Click here to watch Milo and Mama's video when they were catnapped in June 2006.

I hope Mama doesn't mind being "incarcerated" for a while!

And as for the KMM's reaction to Tortie Mama, well, Kootoo the kaypoh is as usual snooping outside the toilet door trying to sniff out the newbie. Muffy is spooked and anxious, while Milo has gone hiding somewhere :D But they will get used to her in no time, I hope ...

The Ultimate Basin Challenge - Part 1

From the desk of Mama Piggy:

I decided to buy a snug-fit basin for the kitties, and threw a challenge to the two tubbies, Milo and Kootoo (Muffin is happy with his cushion, thank you).


Milo the intrepid checking out the new tub.


Will he or will he not fit??


Milo has done it! Never mind the spilling over, will you?


Erm, it doesn't look too comfy, does it?


Look at those squashed paws!


Now, can Kootoo Monster win The Ultimate Basin Challenge?
