Cats who teach me to fly…

I came home a little early today. Finally got some time for myself. Cashie is on my left and Monnie is on my right now. Both lying lazily beside me. Let me take some live photos of them now.

Cashie on my left and…

Monnie on my right…

Don’t know why Cashie has to make so much noise when he is sleeping. I love them to be by my side whether I am doing something or not:).

I have been thinking a lot about my new flat. It’s like a new chapter of my life when I move in. My new home is the place that I have always dream of. Sitting in front of a window glass in a cafe and looking at the pouring rain. Feeling cold and enjoying my hot tea and reading a book which I love or writing a blog. I just love this feeling. This is what I always dream of doing. Well, this is no longer a dream. My home has a better environment. The view is better than the cafe. If it rains, I can sit and watch the rain 24/7 without being asked to leave. I can have many top grade tea without having to pay so much. I have a better couch to lean on. I can write plenty of blogs and read all kinds of books without having to worry if my bag is too heavy. The most important thing is, I have all my cats with me and Mel can sit in any posture she likes. Isn’t it a dream come true to me?

Many may think that this is just an ordinary dream. Yes, an ordinary dream and yet nobody does it. Mel bought a tin of cherry blossom tea from coffee bean for me. I think she wants to feel my dream too.

I have Sunkiss on my bed now.

He is always so sweet, always loving Cashie and Monnie. He is sleeping with Monnie now. Monnie loves his company. Both of them always behave sneakily. I love to watch them in harmony.

I have not felt Tabby coming to me yet and I have not found Puss either. I pray that Tabby is now playing happily with her friends and perhaps Miemi is her new friend now and I also pray that Puss is safe and well-fed by others. My door is open for Puss always and may the angels guide Puss safely back to me.

Oh… Mel bought a small christmas tree. It is going to look real cozy at home this Christmas. What a wonderful birthday I am going to have this year!

I have been so busy with my new flat. The renovation and installations are done except for the window film which will be done this Tuesday. Right now it is all about packing and moving my belongings. Luckily there is Mel to help me pack and my Aunt to help me arrange my things and clean my flat. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have made it.

I will be shifting on the coming Sunday which is 1st of December. I love December. I can celebrate my birthday, Mel’s birthday and Christmas in a new place this year:).

I have tomorrow, Tuesday and Wednesday to move my things and I can’t go up until this Sunday cos it will be auspicious not to enter the flat three days before moving in. I want success, wealth and health to come to me so it is better to listen to what fengshui says:).

I was so busy that I did not update the flower arrangements that I did for Miemi. These were the flowers arrangement I had done for her.

They were all roses. Very simple flower arrangement. I intend to do a special flower arrangement for Miemi on the day I move in and also an arrangement to be displayed on my dinning table. I am holding a house warming buffet lunch on the same day too. Of course Mel has to be there. Our furkids will be around too and of course, Miemi will come along with us too:).

Miemi left a deep paw print in my heart that can never be erased. Loving Miemi always.

Beside getting busy and excited with my new flat, I was also busy taking care of Tabby and Polar. Polar is a deaf kitten that Mel and I brought home from Changi Village. We were at Changi Village because we were hoping to see Puss there. When we saw Polar, we suspected he was badly abused cos we saw a big patch of scalded wound at his back and wounds under his front leg and bind leg and also a cigarette butt fresh scar on both of his front feet. I can’t bear to let him there so I decided to bring him back and apply medication on him.

He was and looked weird to us during that time. Whenever we call him, he didn’t react to us so I have come to the conclusion that he is deaf. I am not sure if he is an albino cat. I will bring him to the vet in Geylang to properly examine her. Meantime, will try to get him strong. Mel is very supportive. This is what I like about her.

At the same time there was Tabby too. I really miss Tabby. I miss Puss too. I wish I could take care of Tabby, even if it means to take care of her forever this way. As for Puss, I am still waiting for her to come back safely to me or I find her safely not far from me.

This is Tabby lying comfortable on the cushion Mel bought for her.

Really miss Tabby!

I saw Bluz about three weeks before sterilisation. His condition was terrible at that time. He looked so skinny and malnourished, dirty and scary. We believe that he was abused and abandoned. However, I was not affected by his appearance. I knew he needed food and supplement. I fed him Kala immunix. That is to boost his immune system. I am still feeding him today. He was not sterilised at that time and I felt unsafe for him. I waited for him to trust me a little and to get stronger before I decided to bring him for sterilisation.

This is Bluz. We named him Bluz because he has beautiful blue eyes.

He still looks skinny. However, his coat and skin are better now. I think he eats only one meal per day. He eats alot when I feed him every time. I hope some kind soul would give him food in the day too.

Mel said that he might be an old cat. I can only recognise a cat when it is young but can’t really tell when a cat is old. I know Puss and Tabby are young cats. Probably not more than two years old. As for Bluz, I think he is more than three-years-old. Can’t really tell.

I am glad that Bluz picked up his health and is getting stronger.

I met Tabby(I named her) below my block. I actually saw her for about a week before I brought her home on 2 Nov. I was feeding the strays and she came by a few times to eat. I think about two to three times. I told Mel that she looked so weird cos she had a very bloated stomach but looked very skinny. I couldn’t bear to see her like this so I decided to bring her to the vet. At first I thought she had worms in her stomach, that was why she looked bloated.

Mel and I picked her on a Sat morning and we brought her to Clinic For Pets at Geylang to examine her. Vet said it was not worms, It was something more than worms and required scanning which the vet’s clinic does not have such facilities. We searched for a few clinics that was opened on that day, which was a Deepavali holiday. We managed to find one around my area which is Balestier. I can’t remember the name of the clinic but I do remember the vet’s name. He was Dr Lee. The clinic has all facilities but the doctor refused to do anything as Tabby was not a home cat and said it would be costly and told us to go back to our regular clinic in the HDB heartlands, which is Island vet.

As it was a holiday, we had to wait till the following Tuesday where the radiologist would be around. We had Tabby scanned and Found that her stomach was bloated with liquid. The vet said it did not look good. Whatever it was, I had decided to bring her home and take care of her. Understanding her condition, I didn’t want to force Tabby to eat things she didn’t want. I cooked and gave her tuna. I am glad that she loves prawns.

For the past three weeks, I tried to give her food that she wanted to eat. I hope she ate what she wanted and felt safe and comfortable at home. As she was so bony, I bought a cushion for her to lay on. She loved it and I was glad.

Last night, I got up at around 3am and found her a little weird. She kept meowing at me as though she had something to say to me. I touched and petted her many times and she purred loudly. I sensed that something was wrong and told Mel that we needed to bring Tabby to the vet immediately in the morning. The reason why I wanted to bring Tabby to the vet was because I want her to feel comfortable. I kissed her forehead last night. Sang her a song that I composed myself and said a few prayers for her.

We brought her to the vet this morning and were prepared to pick her home next Monday morning. I wanted to clean the cage so that Tabby would have a clean place. However, I received a call from our vet in the evening. She told me that Tabby had passed on. I was feeding the community cats at Hougang at that time. Tabby was given a drip and pain killer. I really hoped Tabby passed on comfortably. That moment I asked the Angels to receive her, to guide her to the light and heaven and keep Tabby safe and sound. I also asked Miemi to help Tabby if she can.

I told Tabby that she has a name and her name is Tabby. Yes, she has a home and she has someone who truly loves and takes care of her. Mel was generous to help Tabby.

We arranged a cremation for her tomorrow and Tabby will be picked up at 10.30am. We will not go to the cremation site with Tabby but we will see her before she is cremated. I will get some rose petals for her.

I hope Tabby will come to me and tell and show me that she is fine.

Mummy will always remember Tabby. Mummy will put your photo at the Mummy’s bedside table with the tiny bear you slept with. Tabby will be always loved by Mummy and remembered by the rest. Rest in peace Tabby!

I just got back from looking for Puss. I have completely no idea where she has gone to. I have searched the area thoroughly but there is no sign of her. I pasted the missing notice all over my place and even stretched to the bus stop at Jalan Bahagia today. I do my rounds everyday and night, hoping she would appear. Where else can she go? I am very sure that she did not meet with an accident. She is somewhere and I can’t think of any place she can hide cos there are only three blocks here and our estate is surrounded by the main road. She never goes near to the road and always stays below my block. I have not approached the construction site to really check with the workers there. Tomorrow morning I am going to insist on getting info from the workers at the construction site. I want to make sure this time they really make an effort to ask around if anyone have seen Puss. Beside the construction site, there is nowhere I can think of where Puss can go to.

Puss is a playful cat who loves to explore but doesn’t go far. I firmly believe Puss will come back safe and sound. I will wait for her.

This was Puss when she was injured. She actually enjoyed her stay with me. She will be back, I know.
