Boring drolls about my kittehs

Tuesday, May 11, 2010 Posted by Dils
In my own blog, sometimes I rambled on about my kittehs.

So for the readers here, who don't know my kittehs, one is called Fasha a tabby cat. The other one is tortoiseshell cat, we called Kurap.

 Ini Fasha masa mula-mula kena kidnap dari bawah batu. 

Now, Fasha is more of my husband cat. He found her when she was stuck under a rock and basically he looked after her then. And she came to live with us. But she only tolerated us like you might expect a petulant teenager would be in treating their elders, angrily, wanting for us to keep on giving them freedom while at the same time give them delicious food.



 Fasha now. Like to give her owners haughty glances.


Of course if she was sick or afraid or cold or even wants something, the first thing she did was come to my side. Like I said, a petulant teenager. 



 Masa mula-mula Kurap came to our house. Hence, the name. And ok, at first she is kinda yucky. But also very pathetic.

Now Kurap, is more like a lost puppy. Even my family mentioned that she is like an obedient little dog. She will follow me wherever I go, even waiting outside of the bathroom and she will come or sit where I asked her too. Sometimes. She came to our home right after I had my miscarriage and I considered her my little blessing. While sometimes she exasperated me, but I would get really worried if she is not at home at the usual time.

And she had also now become very fluffy. The bulu kucing in our house is a constant rage point for my husband.

After Kurap had come into our life, Fasha seems to be peeing everywhere. At first we attribute it to behavioral issues. Being territorial of her ground. So we try to train her to the litterbox again and again without avail. We tried treats, punishment, shouting, and then basically resignation in considering in buying diapers for her. Then after I noticed some blood in her pee, then I took her to vet and found that she have some infection in her urinary tract which caused her some discomfort. Dekat sini la die kena masuk fluid and baru la nak menceceh cari tuan die to snuggle against from the pain. She is also being given pills for her infection.



Seems like the infection was caused because she likes to go out so much. And I really can't prevent her because she will find every possible way out. And as for cage, I hate seeing animals caged up. Its fine for a while, but I can't imagine an animal especially a cat who in their very nature like to prowl and move and play, being caged up 24 hours a day. And Fasha shared my sentiment. Whenever she are brought to the cage she will hiss and spat like the thing is some torture device. So we let her out, but at the same time, try to tempt her to stay more in the house.



At the same time since she did not like sharing litterbox with Kurap, we try to solve it by placing more litterboxes. Also it seems cats hate smelly litterbox, especially Fasha so she will usually try to avoid a litterbox that had been used or too smelly. My husband called her 'mengada'. So even though the instruction said if you used clumping litter (the litter sands will clump together when the cat peed or shat on the litter sands, so easy removal and more cheaper to the owners) you only need to clean it like once in 2 or 3 days, I don't think the cats like that very much. So at least once a day, you need to scoop em out. Disgusting. Dan selalunye my husband does it, hehe.


And as for Kurap, there is no problem so far. Which is why I don't mention her much. Except for the fleas problems she kept on getting. Geram aku. My husband had sprayed the anti-flea spray, and loads of kutus come off, but the next week, we found there is still some. We think the source might be from Fasha, and this time try to bath or spray them both with anti-flea spray / shampoo.



And a useful tips to cat owners which we recently found out: If you combined the crystal litter and the clay litter, there will be minimal smell and the pee will less likely to stick at the bottom of the litterbox, so you would not be rendered to gagging / passing out from the ammonia fumes and stinky poo whenever you are scooping their waste out.





Dils loves all animals really, but she can barely manage to keep these 2 hellions in her house. All other history about Fasha and Kurap is found at her other blog. She may mentioned them again if she run out of ideas to blog.

  1. Dila, ko pernah miscarriage ke? alamak, ni yg aku seram ni... any tips bagitau yer... xpe dila, berusahalah lagi! yoshhh~!! err tapi nanti nak ada baby, kucing kene duk luar kot? ke? macam bulu kucing tak elok utk baby kan? eh yeke? -aku berckp tanpa mengetahui fakta sebenar dan hanya mendengar cakap2 orang-

    tapi kucing adalah comel kan? malangnye aku adalah seorang yg takut binatang. huhu

  2. No need to worry lor Nia. It was an early miscarriage at 2 months, something the doctor said was not meant to be.


    Heh, well, actually the feces or the cats tu dangerous for pregnant ladies, tapi kena handle with care and also bulu-bulu tu takut allergic. So what you do usually is, separate the cats and the baby and after a while introduce them gradually to each other.

    Huhu.. aku memang suke kucing, lagi2 banyak je anak kucing terbiar kat luar rumah tu. Husband takut je bile balik tengok bilangan kucing bertambah.

  3. macam mak mentua aku (sori rozie) yg suka bela kucing... kt rumah kt s'wak nun ada laa bebelas ekor hahaha...

    aku dok flat tingkat 12... susah nk bela... sebab rasenye kucing ni suka jalan2... kang tetiba ilang 12 tingkat bai nak kena cari

    last week jumpa sekor kucing itam yg still kecik lepak kt tempat parking moto... aku belikan whiskas ikan pek kecik tu kasi makan... bagi nama Bella sempena Twilight lolz... balik dr Kedah tgk2 dh ilang... baru jek aku beli sekotak Whiskas

  4. huhuhu.. aku pon kenkadang duk beli cat food kalo nampak stray kitten . kalo cat bole tahan lagi. kalo kitten kesian betul.


    yang takut nak bela kucing kat apartment ni.. bukak balkoni or tingkap, maw die org vroom melompat terus tak igt dunia.

  5. i loveeeeee cats!
    walaupun i'm actually alergic dengan bulu kucing but who cares anyway. HAHA..

    i used to be like that.
    dulu mase kecik2 kalau kuar pegi kedai ngan mak, pastu nampak kucing terbiar, especially kittens la, mesti mintak mak bawak balik.
    kesian.
    dan dari situ lah jumlah kucing2 ku bertambah. ehe.

    then, mesti ade seekor yang paling special. biasanye yang special tu lah yang akan di bawak tido bersama. sampai penah en.tunang (mase tu bf lagi) jeles kot sbb tido dgn kucing kesayangan? :P

    nanti bila saya sudah kaya, mau bukak satu pusat jagaan kucing2 terbiar. jage dorang and bila dah sihat comel, kasi adopt kat orang.
    ngeee~~

    oh..dan semalam bawak balik sekor anak kucing dari tempat keje. tak sampai hati tgk die kena buang. :P

  6. *mak aih..baru pasan komen panjang lebar. :P

    p/s: kuceng2 anda sumpah COMELLLLL! grrrrrrr! *geram tgk

  7. saye adelah allergic kucing. Tapi, sukeeee diorg gak....

    my mom used to have berbelas2 ekor kucing at home but none of them are allowed into the house because of me. Sedey tengok diorg sejuk2 tido kat balkoni time hujan, but tak boleh buat apa.

    my allergies to them are very bad... belum sempat sentuh, if dekat2 je pon mesti dah bersin2 sampai kuar air mata dn terus flu lepas tu. I can even tell if a house ade kucing ke tidak because if there was a cat, konfem i will sneeze non stop for a few hours..

    the only way i can pat them is by stop breathing when i was near them... and cepat2 cuci tangan lepas tu -_-"

  8. Kucing Kertas
    Wahhh cat lover!

    Hehe. Memang die orang comel, tapi kalau malam-malam rase nak campak keluar sebab suke bergaduh atas katil. Terasa macam kalau ade duit lebih untuk menderma, instead of people, I am choosing to derma to animal instead.

    And what happened to the anak kucing you brought back?

    Sue

    Teruk tu allergy. Nampak gaya kalau buat makan-makan di my house Sue kena duduk luar! LOL!

  9. haha.. tuhlah, konfem aku masuk je terus bersin. nak kene pakai mask kot nanti :P

  10. betul! derma kat animals pun charity jugak. they're living creature. needs love and care. hee.

    kuceng tu i dah bagi makan, dah mandi.
    tapi she's still not used to being and living with humans. so i guess it'll take time untuk dia jadi manja la. hehe..
    asek nyorok kat hujung dapur je.
    once die dah ok sket, nk bwk pegi cocok kat vet. :P
