Fatboy Smudgey

Smudgey at his new hangout.

Look at this fat cat! He all so cosy. Doesnt look like MamaCat is gonna have a chance to use this post at all.

Smudgey is a really big boy. Weighing almost 10kg, he is too much to carry around… but he is such a pushover for Snoozy.

I am just happy that I have a no.1 fan in this scratching post that I made.. :)

Side effects of Wifi!

We have just installed Wifi in the home last week, and look at what crazy ideas I have now! It must be the Wifi, it causes normal people to have strange abnormal ideas!

Today, I created a Yahoo! email account for each of my cats, with the specific plan to put them on Twitter and facebook! So u see, isnt that crazy!? Guess what..! I discover that I am not alone in this craziness, there are many cats who are on Twitter and FB already! The most popular twitting cat has over 7000 followers!! See! Hence my conclusion, Wifi has side effects. Overexposure damages the sanity of people!

So anyway, watch out for my cats! They are coming to you ONLINE!

Just another weekend project

Simple scratching post for hanging on door knob

Simple scratching post for hanging on door knob

Building a cat scratching post for my kitties. Been wanting to do this for a long time, aint it surprising how long it takes to actually getting around to doing something..? Well, so.. here it is.

This one is meant to be hang from a door knob. Very simple, easy to make. I think Snoozy will like this one. Snoozy has a room to herself.. lucky girl. She is the queen of the house.

Measuring 18″ x 6″ wide. Carpet is tacked in with nails. We did not use any glue, and glue wouldnt hold for very long…

A more plush looking cat scratching post for the living. I think all my cats will love this one. Hope they will share… will they..? Hoping.. fingers crossed. Post is 24″ tall, mounted on a 18″x12″ base. I design this post after many year of observing my kitties and they scratching habits. They love to stretching and give it a go.

Here is a picture of the sacrificial chest of pinewood drawers in the living room. Well used by all 3 kitties.

Just for the fun of it, here are some pictures of us working on the cat furniture.

The carpet material that we use were given to us. They are job excesses that were too small for anything else. I am happy that we could have some good use out of it. If anybody wants a cat scratching post, let me know. We will build it for ya, for just a small fee to cover the plywood and other materials.

Pretty Mama Cat

My pretty girl. Finally a good pose to share, pardon the messy surrounding objects. 

Cats like finding spots around the house and make themselves comfy. This is Mama’s regular hangout spot.

I just love Mama’s gentle pale green eyes.

My kitties

Alright! I am a cat person…. slave ..? Here are my 3 kitties that rule my household. They certainly get the most use out of my house than I do.

SnooZy. Dont be fooled by her appearance.

Queen SnooZy, the sofa is her throne, and so is everywhere else that she demands. It will be given to her instantly.

She was 1st adopted by my sis. According to her, SnooZy’s mum left her unattended for quite awhile when she was a kitten. Concerned that shes not going to be able to feed/fend for herself, sister took her home. Spoilt her ever since.

Life change for sis and Snoozy needs a new home. So here she is, my 1st cat, and she used to sleep at my feet. I quite enjoy that life with a companion that is so attached to me.

Mama Cat, aka Sooty. Its a long story. Mama was a pretty stray cat in my block when I was living at my aunt’s. Sometimes, I leave bits of food and water for kitties around the block during my evening walks, and I would make a “clok clok” sound to let them cats know that dinner is served. It was a daily routine and I would see Mama, my regular. 

I missed her for a week, and I wondered what happen to her. I searched for her in the neighbourhood for 7 days, almost giving up, but hoping that somebody has adopted her. When I did find her again, she was sick, sitting on the steps at the lobby. I brought her home (much to SnooZy’s displeasure), saw the vet the next day, fed her med and food. Let her go when she was well again, and the daily routine repeats. Soon, however, she was finding her way up to my apt and took to waiting outside the door, meowing gently was her way of knocking. Thats okay for me, but SnooZy is not happy at all. Shortly after, I notice Mama was expecting.. and was trying to get into the house as it was a safe place for her kittens. So I took her in, house her in the kitchen as it had a door separating the living room, such that the rest of the house belong to Snoozy. Oct 2001, 2 cute little kittens were born in a box in the kitchen.. :) … One of them died after 2 weeks, which was sad… He was the cuter of them 2.

Anyway, Smudgey the fat boy was a handful since birth. He is a greedy little thing and always had a full round tummy. He has surpirisingly strong genes and was never sick. A pity that he had a deformed tail since birth.. Well, he’s black, just like Mama. Although, Mama has prettier green eyes and nice long tail..

I moved from my aunt’s big apt into my own smaller apt in 2001. The door that separates the kitchen from the rest of the house is gone. And just how do my cats get along without the separation? Hah, they dont. One time, in the middle of the night, Smudge was being naughty, Snoozy pounced on him, Mama to his rescue and I got hurt. 2 trips to the doctor in the 1st yr of housing them. Now they have their routine, they stay out of each others way and I stay out of their fights.. which is not that regular anyway. ..
