Good 'Ol Times

2006-12-08T21:40:00.000+08:00

This is an old pix of Fuji and me sharing a plate of tuna. It was fun to have her tailing me and did stuff together. I wish I could still do this nowadays. But, with the circumstances that I'm in now (remember stupid hat?), I'd be lucky to have her QUIET...

Bad Hair Day

2006-12-08T21:23:00.000+08:00

I got myself into trouble today. I looked like an idiot with my head stuck in the stupid lampshade-hat, but things are going to get better. I just have an ear infection and it is super-itchy....that's all. Nothin serious. What bothers me the most is that, Fuji has not stopped HISSING at me since I got back from the vet! She must have enjoying all these....

-Sir Paws-

Lazy me

2006-12-02T14:11:00.000+08:00

This is just what I need, after every good ball game. O yes, we have all sorts of balls at home. Big, small, rubber, plastic you name it. Fuji likes to stomp at all of them. She has endless tricks with balls too. Okay, now it sounds funny. Nothing more about balls.

Anyway, this is how I spent Sundays...lazying on the cold floor till all became fuzzy.

Post-Natal Yoga

2006-12-02T13:40:00.000+08:00

They say Yoga can make you lean. Fuji is exactly opposite of that - she is one big snowball! Every now and then she would rolled up to her favourite yoga paw-sition (see pix), but since she is fat her heavy legs just dropped. I told her so...but she never listens to me.

I still believe brothers are every little sister's idol.

Bice's Giant Paws

2006-11-19T13:35:00.000+08:00

Bo died a day later...he was too small of a toy to play with.
Was counting on Bice. This is him sulking. He pretty much do nothin else, but that. See how big his paws are?

Who's the Daddy??

2006-11-19T13:20:00.000+08:00

In May, they arrived, Bo & Bice. Very tiny toys! I was so buzy sniffin' that morning until late that I found out they were boys.

This is an old picture of them. Less than a-day old!

Baby Boomer

2006-04-30T10:42:00.000+08:00

Nowadays, Fuji looks more like a balloon with legs..I dont envy her. Mom said she is going to have lotsa babies with tummy so big like that.

Kittens are fun!. I can't wait...more toys will be coming my way :P.

Chilling Moments

2006-04-29T12:53:00.000+08:00

I have no idea why I slept on Fuji's tail like that. We chased each other for some rounds..before retiring into this cuddling moments.

I guess, she does'nt mind either. She never lets anyone bothers her before. So, I'm hoping...this moment would last.

Cat's Collection

2006-04-28T22:47:00.000+08:00

These are my cats collection...Fuji's included :P. Mom had put them all in a row, for this old photoshot. Often times, Fuji would paw the "twin cats" off the table...just for the fun of it. Little cats do that all the time.

The Couch Potato

2006-04-27T23:05:00.001+08:00

I feel lazy today...there is not much action going on in the house. Fuji seemed quiet ever since she became pregnant. Now, that is NOT FUN. I've no one to blame but, myself.

In this picture, I'm sleeping away on top of the sofa...how nice.

Cat Gymnast?

2006-04-12T19:45:00.000+08:00

Can anyone do this paw-sition?. Fuji likes it alot. She does it..all the time! After meals, before bed, between games. It's amazing how she could sit flat on her tummy, with both hind legs spread apart like that ... so comfortably, for as long as she likes it. Been scratchin my head, asking.... WHY??? :O.

For me, warm sofa is the best place to snooze on.

Pick Me Up

2006-04-11T20:35:00.000+08:00

Fuji, in the early days had purr-fected her "pick-me-up-trick". Just look at her poor face in the picture. I don't really need this shit....just to satisfy my ego, I think. Mom would picked me up anyday...easy. But today, it works for her. :P

String Attraction

2006-04-11T16:05:00.000+08:00

I am always amused by ribbons and strings, as long as I could remember. Strings are the funnest trick ever created. Be it moving..or just sitting quiet. Fuji likes them alot. (Bet anyone else, too). In this picture, I'm inspecting one string hanging lose.

Flower Power

2006-04-09T23:59:00.000+08:00

Two new rugs arrived today. The Yellow rug has a blue flower on it and the Blue rug has a yellow flower instead. Both rugs have the same flower design. Why do I care, again ???...Rugs are made to sit on. And we, cats love them.

Interestingly enough, I do appeared to be holding the flower...how possible?

Meet Princess Fuji

2006-04-03T15:43:00.000+08:00

Competition is not always a good thing. I just don't get it. I mean, I must have been a good kitty to get a gal whom I'd wished for months..yet again she is so annoying at times. Don't get me wrong, I DO LOVE her dearly..but she always get a way with things.

Anyways, proudly showing her off to the world...my gal, Princess Fuji. She's a 5 months old Turkish Angora.

Noisy Gizmo

2005-10-08T16:25:00.000+08:00

Today, I'm inspecting Mom's new gadget. It arrived in a big case last week. Only today that I finally get my nose at it. It does not smells like our "stinky goodness"..but the velvet carrier is lovely to sleep in. Mom said something like..."Don't get any idea" when I step my front paws on it. Boy, that thing IS noisy!

Cats Everywhere

2005-10-07T22:31:00.000+08:00

Mom left the Animal Planet ON all afternoon. They were showing the Meerkats Manor, again. Mom had not seen it, so she spent some time watching TV for a change. Seeing such a rare occasion, I decided to sit on it!. Now she could choose either, watching the cats on Tv or THE CAT on the TV.

Okay, so I'm an attention seeker...

Eat All I Want

2005-10-05T18:58:00.000+08:00

Mom starts fasting today. Happy Ramadhan to all cats everywhere. Although we cats, can eat all we want in the daytime..it'd be nice if we could think about the less fortunate cats who may have not eaten for days. And be grateful for all the unconditional love that we get every second. Love you Mom.

Cozy Cove

2005-10-04T18:40:00.000+08:00

Every cat needs a hide out place. And this is my cozy cove. Mom salvaged an old closet and turned it into a magazines rack (top part) cum my seclusion shelter (bottom part). We had it placed nearby the TV. It is not terribly cozy, no fancy cushion or day bed..but the isolation is pleasing. You know, being close to Mom but at the same time away from the annoyingly loud tv? :D

Peek-A-Boo

2005-10-03T19:35:00.000+08:00

I want to be a HANDSOME CAT this Halloween. And Mom could be a Sexy? WITCH (Don't know about that..). Last year, I dressed up as a KITTEN!. The thing is, we don't celebrate Halloween that much here. Thinking of how lucky my buddies are in Alabama (I mean...Muddy, Myst, Rocky et al.). But, I sure appreciate the treats.

Today, we played Hide & Seek. I knew well that she hid under the table...I could outsmart her, anytime.

Quiet Sunday

2005-10-02T11:00:00.000+08:00

Another quiet Sunday. I was up early like usual..but Mom likes to sleep in on Sundays. I kept jumping onto the bed, sat on her pillow and kneaded her ears. She took one look at me, closed her eyes and stroked my head..that was it. She did that everytime I jumped up to her. I liked it alot, so I did that to Mom almost every hour! :P. She finally woke up and saw me guarding the computer room. All I got for being quiet is sloppy kisses from Mom. Sighhh...

Got Balls?

2005-10-01T22:10:00.000+08:00

Mom practises her putting at home today. She hits the ball and let it roll over the ramp and into the hole. I sit next to the hole and have one paw inside it. Mom likes that and occasionally rolls the ball onto my paw instead. Putting turns into hit and chase game. Like usual...I hog the ball. That's the end of it.

Cat 'N' Pepper

2005-09-30T18:05:00.000+08:00

I smell something yummy and rush to the kitchen to investigate. Walla! Mom is making onion rings. She is mixing some powdered stuff with her fingers. How fun! That stuff do smells like catnips. Maybe humans' catnip??? :O. I jump up onto the kitchen counter for better view. She had no idea that I love curry powder and pepper. She let me sniff at the bowl too :D. Then, she wash her hands and let me licked her fingers dry...how thoughtful.

A Room with a View

2005-09-27T20:30:00.000+08:00

Mom briefly opens the windows today. She almost never do that on weekdays. I think she is stressed-out and much needed the oxigen. I took the chance to S-T-R-E-T-C-H myself againts the wooden panels. I feel so good doing that and continue resting my arms on it. In the meantime, I'm looking out for the birds or squirrels. But of course, Mom is 2 steps behind..in case I jump out :P.

Old Fav Port

2005-09-25T09:10:00.000+08:00

I'm sitting on the windowsill in Mom's master bedroom. She lets me in 24/7 as long as I behave :P. And the air condition is on all day! By far, this is the greatest lookout post at home. I've been using it since I was a kitten. Still trying hard to fit in there. You could easily see my hind leg falling off the sill..(I grow fast). I could see birds on the trees and cars passing by the road. Yup, this is where I check out for cool she-cats. Awww...MEOWWW!

Mouse Hogger

2005-09-24T09:05:00.000+08:00

Mom is at the computer again. I felt lonely, so I jumped up onto the computer table and sit next to her. Immediately, I saw a blinding-red-eyed toy under Mom's hand. She was holding it by its head!. Saw Mom wigglling it left, right, back and forth. That was a cool toy she had there. So much fun that I have to put a paw on its tail. I practically took over from then on...:D

Coiled and Poised

2005-09-23T18:00:00.000+08:00

As I grow older and fatter, sitting like this has become so effortless. It can be tricky for kittens with small bums, though. :P Somehow the act has a rather calming effect on me. No wonder, sitting crossed-leg is one of many yoga favourite pose!

OMMMmmmhhhhhhh...

After-Shower Nap

2005-09-22T20:45:00.000+08:00

Mom gave me a bath after work today. I had one last week, just before Mom went on vacation. I don't particularly hate the water but being soaked-wet made me feel naked. After a quick hot shower, shampoo, a blow dry and nail clippings..I began to feel sooooo relax and sleepy. Mom knows how to make me quiet.

Travellin' Cat

2005-09-21T19:40:00.000+08:00

Do I look like running away from home? Naaahh..Mom took me out to the park. I'm geared with my leash on :D. I love travelling. Last year, Mom took me on the bus from Kuala Lumpur to Penang, visiting Mom's aunt. I know, she's crazy. I was 4 months old then. She got me a child ticket, sitting next to her!. Yes, I got my own seat, not on the floor :P. The air was cool and humans were quiet...so I loved it. We reached there 5 hours later. I've been on the ferry, on a bike...but yet to fly.

Lookout Tower

2005-09-20T20:05:00.000+08:00

I am sitting comfortably on my new lookout tower - our fridge! :D. Now that I could jump higher, I keep discovering new places to rest. Just a couple hops away, first onto the kitchen table, then next onto the book cabinet...and I am already up on the tower. I managed to bugde in, despite all Mom's decorations on it. I could tell that Mom looked stunned to see me up there. She approves..:D.

Feathered Foe

2005-09-19T19:55:00.000+08:00

As a kitten, I used to be wary and scared of the feather duster. It has feathers all over the body but headless!. I hissed at it a lot, then. If things got worse, I just run and hide underneath the bed. Tonight, it got stuck behind the door. All I could see was some feathers peeking out between the crack. I was intrigued to come closer and sniff. Yup, still cautious to be around that thing.

Spat-The-Roach

2005-09-18T15:10:00.000+08:00

I was wishing for some flying toys to appear...and today, I saw one! :D. I have not seen the cockroach for ages. It came out crawling from underneath the kitchen cabinet and I was lucky enough to be on the guard. Faster than a blink of an eye, I spat it with my paws. Moments later, it was flat on its back, probably dying :P. I had fun :D.

Monk's Babies

2005-09-17T14:35:00.000+08:00

Behold!. My other half sister (Monk) gave birth to 6 kits at 2.00 A.M last nite. No..no...this is ANOTHER half sister. I think I have 5 sisters..I lost count :P. The kits are too small...can't tell the gender yet. It's unbelievable..my sisters that is. They keep making babies...like REAL bunnies :D. Mom, I want a gal!

Bottom's Up

2005-09-16T20:30:00.000+08:00

I will do this when I feel groovy. Not necessarily when I am sleepy. I like my bushy bottom side up. I know Mom can't resist looking at me in this position. She will stop doing her stuff and come closer to give me a rub. A trick we cats shall master. Actually, in my case it was not magical at all. Mom just love rubbing!. Period :P.

Cat Menu

2005-09-15T18:30:00.000+08:00

Mom got a new book from the flea market. She usually reads them out loud...just to get my attention :P. I'm quite amused to watch her flipping over the pages. A few pages later, I came across pictures of Cat Treats! I have no idea that cat menu has become so fancy, they almost look like the human's food!. I mean...stuff like cooked meat balls with pasta?? :O. I love my plain canned tuna and chicken alright...no complaints Mom :D.

Island Boy

2005-09-14T18:50:00.000+08:00

Mom saw a kitten nearby her challet at the beach. She missed me so much and to have found a local kitten was just amazing. Mom said, he bites and play alot.

Well, he certainly does look skinny and very tiny ( No..no I'm not jealous). He has a dark thin coat...I say, too much sun tan?. Kittens tend to become hyperactive out of nothing. As for me, curling up in the shade is a bliss.

Seashore Seashells

2005-09-13T19:50:00.000+08:00

Mom is back from a beach holiday in Tioman Island. She got a family friend to cat-sit me for a few days. I kind of missed her but..I certainly love the FREEDOM!! :D. Yup. No souveniors. All she brought back was these dead seashells. She cleaned and laid them on the kitchen floor to dry. She knows I could'nt be happier to be on guard all night...waiting patiently for living toys to peek out.

What's Inside?

2005-09-05T19:54:00.000+08:00

We cats love boxes. But I, go bonkers over paper bags!. Or any bags at all.
Why is that??. Mom thinks it's because I am naturally curious. When she leaves home for work, she hides the toys in it. So that I could keep myself busy investigating. Who knows.. I might join the sniffing cat elite squad one day. That'd be neat :D.

Under The Spell

2005-09-04T20:00:00.000+08:00

"Must obey Mommy.......must obey Mommy.......must obey Mommy......."

In the middle of the confusion and calmness, everything makes sense. I am not the King of the house after all!

Joy Ride

2005-09-03T20:26:00.000+08:00

Mom's friend came over and took us out on her new car. The coolest thing was ..I got to go out with them. We just drove around town and enjoyed the late afternoon sun. It was not too hot for me, so I did'nt pant at all. I was busy as ever, looking at moving things outside. Sadly, there were no cats to be seen...bummer! :O.

Is It Poisonous?

2005-09-02T19:10:00.000+08:00

When I was small, we used to have glass bottles filled with fresh cut flowers at home. And Mom kept them up on high shelves for obvious reasons :P. I love watching Mom cleaning the bottles and filled them up with water and decorative stones. The sound of the stones dropping was mesmerizing. She only keeps artificial flowers these days, except this one....being macho and all, I jump up on the cabinet and have a little chew on the plant. EEEWWWW....it's bitter! Mom caught me red handed with her camera. Just purrrfect. I felt stupid. :P

Silent Night

2005-09-01T19:00:00.000+08:00

Mom seems busy tonight. She is glued to the computer since dinner time. And I've got no one to play with. So I jumped up on the table, and chilled out. I could see Mom from here though. That was when she snapped my photo :P. It's nice sometimes..to just do nothing...No no, I am not lonely. It 's the quiet that bothers me. Minutes later, my mind goes blank...zzZzZzzZZZZZZ.

Delayed Celebration

2005-08-31T21:10:00.000+08:00

Mom had planned to celebrate my birthday today..and it is also the country's 48th Independence Day. It's fun watching Mom putting up balloons and ribbons, despite my upset tummy. I love to chase the ribbons on the floor but frankly, balloons do scare me a bit :P. My younger sister who lives with another family came to the party. Wow..she IS pretty, since I last saw her. (I did wish for a girlfriend this birthday, is she the one? :P).

Yoga For Cats

2005-08-30T19:50:00.000+08:00

Mom is always amazed when I sit on my back like this. No brainer... In this position, it is easy for me to reach my ab and tail. But Mom thought I was doing some yoga tricks, being flexible like that. I saw her reading Yoga For Cats book, once. I have no idea :O.

We cats, are engineered to do all sorts of stretches. We almost never have to work out :P.

The Life Outside

2005-08-28T18:00:00.000+08:00

It's bright and windy today. I'm relief that the hazy days are finally over. Another beautiful Sunday. So Mom decided to bring me out for a walk around the neighbourhood. It's really cool to see the birds from down here. I had fun until .... I saw another tomcat and naturally we both started growling at each other. Mom was panicked and she picked me up. Within minutes, I'm back in the house. It could have been disasterous..that guy means business!. Boy, life is tough out there. I'm way Ok... just watching the birds by the windows, really. :D

New Kits In Town

2005-08-28T11:25:00.000+08:00

My half sister who lives with another family, had gave birth to 5 kittens last week....again!?! Man.. she has a good appetite. She gave birth to Paris, Brune and Pesky some four months back. The new ones do not have names yet. They all look gray and smell funny too. She has to be put in the "ward" (a big cage specially made for cat moms) so that no one bothers the kittens. The scary reality is that, my little cousins and I share the same Persian dad !!. And that makes us brothers?? :O.

I Messed Up

2005-08-27T18:45:00.000+08:00

Mom does her bookscrapping today. She likes to cut all sort of pictures from the magazines. And I love to watch her (more like messing up the junk). Once in a while, she would throw crump paper balls and I'd be crazy chasing after them. I like to kick and "bend it like Beckham" :P. Mom said it was funny when I skidded and hit the table. After a few mid-air jumps and odd acrobats, I get tired. This is me, snoozing under the cool shade of a box.

Meet Leon-Nardo

2005-08-26T18:21:00.000+08:00

This is my half brother, Leon. He is a mixed Norwegian Forest and Burmese. He's 8 months young. He lives with another family. When he first came to visit, I thought he was a girl! He looked quite "pretty" to me, I just can't tell. After some meticulous sniffing, I knew he is one of us. It'd be cool if you stay, we can do stuff together, like real brothers. I'll behave, Mom (......with an evil smile).

Tickle Me

2005-08-25T19:45:00.000+08:00

Mom gets home early today. So we play the "Tickle Me" game like we used to, when I was a kitten. She ties a straw to one end of a rope and make me chase it. She would run too, which makes it funner than the fetch game. I love the rattling sound it makes. I run and roll over then she rubs my bushy belly and kiss me. Mom doesn't like to rub me that much anymore...since I'm quick to snap and scratch these days. Long gone baby bites and tiny claws.

Chicken Run

2005-08-24T18:45:00.000+08:00

Mom decided to cook dinner. She usually buys dinner on her way home. I followed her to the kitchen and just sit there "guarding". What for, again? Nothing....since I don't cook or clean. But, I must sit around her..Mom being mom, she would not let me in whenever she fries something.
I ran my ass out of the kitchen once....when a simple chicken-frying turned into a bullet-frenzy chaos! Where was Mom? She followed :P.

It's Shower Time

2005-08-23T18:20:00.000+08:00

I meowed and meowed so loud when Mom was in the shower. Usually I would just sit quietly by the door, waiting for her to come out. The trick works this time :D. That must have startled her and she let me in!. She puts me in the sink so that my coat won't get wet. It is fun looking at the shampoo bubbles running down the drain. Was I thrilled to watch her?? YOU BET!:P.

Puss in Boots

2005-08-22T20:00:00.000+08:00

Confession; I love shoes..but don't get me wrong. I don't wear them, unlike our canine friends..(or that Puss in the movie Shrek2). It's just that I love to curl up in human's shoes, especially Mom's. This picture showing me getting comfy in Mom's heels. At times, I drive her crazy when I shed on her snickers...but most of the time, she would just smile it off. She thinks I am cute doing that :P.

I Have A Dream

2005-08-21T19:25:00.000+08:00

Mom caught me having a good time dreaming. I have'nt had it since last month, I think. Usually, it happens on Sundays..and tonight I was lucky to have one. In the middle of it all, I knew Mom was close by checking me out. :P. She would call it "Sweat Dreams" or rather "Wet Dreams"?. What the heck..I need my space. Aarrghhh!!

Coughing Furball

2005-08-21T14:25:00.000+08:00

I felt sick. I had a bad cough for a couple of days and my throat hurts. It might just be the hairball but this time it is a lot worse. Mom brought me to the vet yesterday morning. True enough, I got a jab for the inflamed throat. Had to take the ugly antibiotic pills and some sticky sugar solution for my gut...the only solace for my misery was that Mom stayed home the whole day! (She works 9-5 and leaves me home alone).
