in loving memory of mika

cat aunty's pictures of spencer brought back fond memories of my first cat adopted from cws.

that was back in mid 2000, i still remember that day very well. i emailed cws and said i wanted to adopt a kitten, approx 8 weeks old, boy or girl or colour doesnt matter. jean promptly brought 2 carriers to my home.

she opened the doors of the carriers, which i peered into. one was a beautiful tabby kitten. the other was a plain black and white kitten.

the beautiful tabby kitten was very shy, she hid at the back of the carrier refusing human touch (no ah, i didnt force her out hor). the black and white kitten, on the other hand, was not shy at all, she came out the minute the door opened.

she greeted me by meowing and rubbing herself on my hand.

the choice was a natural one.

thus the black and white kitten was named mika.

mika was the sweetest and gentlest cat i have known, even till this day.

she readily gave in to juveniles, often becoming a "toy" for them.

she also let youngsters cuddle up against her, never said no.

when the night became quiet, she would quietly cuddle beside a human, kneading him and purring softly, without fail (even sat on his belly the whole night and kneaded on it)

i hope you have abundance of fish in kitty heaven, mika. till we meet again..

next cat show in april

i hope my belly fur grows back in time for the next cat show. mummy is feeding us with an expensive premium food, whom she heard from a certain uncle jack that it is very good for "beauty and fit", in the hope to register and show me off!

i have been licking my legs and belly bald... i heard the humans call this, "excessive compulsive licking disorder". dont understand why they'd give such a long name for it. it's just that i cant help stop licking when i am nervous, or when i get caught bullying coco. mummy would ignore or chase me with a stick in her hand.

it's a misunderstanding

i was feeling nauseous, shiverish, with a little cold sweat yesterday.

i thought they were withdrawl symptoms.

well, actually i am down with a cold.

ほっと

do keep away

from my other half. he is officially suffering from withdrawal symptoms since 1 Feb.

me too. i mean, i cant be fagging while the other half's trying to stop right? that would be too cruel and torturing.

so, i am suffering from mild withdrawal symptoms too.. (i dont fag as heavily)

do keep away. at least for a while. quite grouchy and sleepy now.

mother cat and kittens

i finally saw pregnant and her 2 kittens today!


i'm going to try and trap her and also the 2 kittens.



dont they look sweet? they are so playful and vibrant. i think they are both males.

i will bring them home, vaccinate them, give them lots of interaction and they are all ready to be adopted.

of course, mummy needs to be spayed.

goodaire revitalisor

can anyone tell me if this works to clean and refresh the air?


my office should be a sick building. dust and aluminium foils fall from the aircon duct outlets.

i want to breathe clean (well, not 100%, but cleaner) air!

it's officially the year of the dog
