Meow Meow Ku Notty~!

Ramai yg komplen....antaranya:

  • Kitten saya ni kecik lagi, sgt comel tp mulut bising mcm bertih goreng..mcm mana ye??? Masalahnya kadang2 kita sampai x tahan..mana tidaknya...pagi meowww....ptg...meowww...dah bg mkn minum tdo cukup semua pun meow lagi...mcm mana ni??
  • Kitten saya ni mkn 3x sehari...tp bila mkn tu demand nak makan wetfood sajer..kalau tidak dia mogok lapar..takpun pergi gaduh dgn kucing yg lain utk lepas geram..apa perlu saya buat??
  • Kitten yg saya baru adopt ni kejenya memanjat sajer...abis semua langsir dan alas meja rabak..mcm mana yea??

Aha..kucing anda kuat 'berborak' dan buat 'bising'??
Kucing ada demand dan berani tunjuk perangai besar kepala??

Hmmm...memang ler...itu la cara nya kucing tu nak mendptkan perhatian drpd tuannya, sama ada bila nak meminta makan/minum atau saja2 minta utk dimanja  Dan tidak dinafikan sesetengah kucing mmg ada sifat lebih vokal berbanding jenis yang lain. Sudahla jadual tidur manusia dan kucing tidak sama, bila waktu malam kita tidur time tu la si comel2 ni nak buat orkestra sambil bermain ala2 sarkis..kan...

Ignore saje sememangnya tidak akan menyelesaikan masalah dan dikhuatiri nanti kurang perhatian pula..jd ada beberapa perkara yang boleh dicuba untuk selesaikan masalah ni.


Perlu untuk menyediakan pelbagai toy yg boleh memberi interaksi dan stimulasi pada kitten nie...almaklum budak kecik ni tenaganya banyak..main je kejenya x reti duduk diam..adventurous katanya...so kita boleh tinggalkan beberapa toys ditempat yang selalu sicomel ni lepak2..Permainan yang berjuntai2...yang bergerak2, berlampu2, ada bau2 catnip atau silvervine mmglah sgt disukai...disamping membizikan si comel, kita pon boleh la buat keje lain..takde la dia mengekor kita 24 jam..kan.. tak perlu mainan mahal2...DIY pon boleh...ikat string atau apa2 tali pada batang penyapu lidi pon boleh...atau ikat tali di tombol pintu pon boleh...runyuk2 dan kepal2 kertas jadi boleh pon layan...ikut la kreativiti sendiri..

Atau boleh juga letakkan small treats atau sedikit mknn utk si comel ni ‘discover’ masa tgh sibuk2 main tu...pendek cerita..we try to keep the kitten busy dengan cara create satu environment yang interesting untuk dia bermain sendiri.  Jadi takde la dia hanya bergantung pada tuannya saje bila nak bermain atau minta makan. faktor bosan turut boleh menyumbang kenapa kucing kita hyperactive sgt...almaklum takde kawan nak main..sunyi..


Kalau kitten  ni bersikap demanding, kita sebagai tuannya yg berakal boleh memilih mana yg lebih baik utk si manja ni. Kalau diikutkan sgt perangai nak makan wetfood sahaja mana boleh sbb nanti dikhuatiri boleh merosakkan gusi dan gigi, kalau nak ikut sajer pe’el asyik nak minum susu esp susu yg bukan khas utk kucing, dikuatiri nanti dpt sakit perut dan cirit birit kerana kucing mmg tidak boleh menghadam susu yang mempunyai laktos seperti susu lembu.

Kucing ni haiwan yg bijak, bila kita nak train dia..dia pon mula lah tukar taktik..sbb dia dah tau dengan hanya mengiowww x jadi apa...jadinya...apabila kita nak train dia...mesti pastikan ahli keluarga juga turut take part sama2..berkat kesabaran dan kerajinan..kita boleh ubah sikap anak kucing kita ni..


Kalau x jalan jugak...maybe it's a bout time utk kita beri new companian padanya...carikkan kawan...iyer...kawan...bukan jodoh!! Adoption boleh dibuat dimana2 shelter...ada yg beri FOC ada yg beserta dgn adoption fee..sbb ada yg dah siap deworm deflea dan neuter semua kan...nak beri kawan baru pon ada caranya..nanti kami kongsikan dlm penulisan yang akan dtg ok..daa...


P/S: Jangan lupa utk upah kucing kita ni dgn treats kegemaran atau catnip apabila dia menunjukkan sikap yg kita ingini..ohh...kata2 peransang juga perlu..apa la sgt kita puji dia ‘Good boy/girl’ kan...positive reinforcement tu....selamat mencuba!

Very vocal, muscular and lay back. He likes to rub his head to my leg or hands and it is very firm – once I almost trip. He loves to climb onto my body if he sees the chance to.
7         How my cat/dog got his/her name
Macam mana  kucing/anjing mendapat namanya?
I am a movie buff – and mudah terpengaruh. Loooves the movie “life of pi”..so I named him after the tiger. In the movie, the tiger survived a ship wreck and stayed on the life boat for weeks. In real life RP came to our front porch, I believe from hitch hiking my dad’s car. Like most cases, kittens seek the warmness of car engines during cold / raining seasons. Nasib baik he ends up to my house.

Keadaan kucing/anjing semasa diselamatkan
Malnourished to the point she did not even have energy to stand and eat. Punctured lung filled with puss at one side as a result of being bitten by other bigger cat. According to the vet, she was just about 3 months old that time and was underweight to undergo surgery to drain the puss.

Initially I just wanted to foster her and find an adopter. Seeing she has grown to be so attached to me, I decided to keep her J
6         Cat/Dog’s Character
Sifat Kucing/Anjing
She would wait by the door everyday for me to come home to greet me. She is not a lap cat but she likes to chill by my side and she follows me everywhere. She is also a very clean cat not to mention playful, sometimes quite vocal and a high jumper!
7         How my cat/dog got his/her name
Macam mana  kucing/anjing mendapat namanya?
I actually call cats anyau in general so when I found her I called her anyau initially while thinking for a name. So now her official name is Anya but she response the most when being called Anyau.

8         My cat/dog condition now is….
Keadaan kucing/anjing saya sekarang… .
She is a pretty cat and almost 1 year old now. Healthy, happy and spayed although she is still coughing daily due to the punctured lung as her lung will not be at its full capacity ever. I just need to monitor her cough to make sure she is still okay and not experiencing any serious complication.


9         Why I chose to spay/neuter my cat/dog
Mengapa saya memilih untuk memandulkan Kucing/anjing saya

I believe in spaying/neutering cats to avoid contributing to stray problems. That happens when you don’t have enough ability to handle cats breeding exponentially. It is also for the best interest of both us human and the cat considering the space we have and also her health. She is happier after being neutered believe me! She was in heat at 4 months old and I had to endure her nightly “calls” and her “crazy” behavior wanting to dash out the door everytime.

Malnourished but overall she was healthy. She was rescued by an independent rescuer named Stuart Tan. He asked me to foster MiHo before he could find an adopter. Well MiHo found her forever home that is by my side. 
6         Cat/Dog’s Character
Sifat Kucing/Anjing
Extremely clingy when she was young. Now she likes to accompany me while I am doing my homework and assignments. The most loyal cat I ever had and I thank God for letting MiHo came into my life .
7         How my cat/dog got his/her name
Macam mana  kucing/anjing mendapat namanya?
Gu Mi-Ho is the legendary nine-tailed fox which was sealed in a painting by the fairy godmother. The fox was cheeky and cunning but behaved like a deity whenever necessary. Same goes to my MiHo. When she was young, she used to turn my room upside down and whenever I came back from work she never failed to give me a tsunami-like scenery to the room. When she grew a bit older, she grew to be a goddess in my life. 
8         My cat/dog condition now is….
Keadaan kucing/anjing saya sekarang… .
She is now almost 2 years old, a well fed cat and she is now like my own child. She was never fat to me in fact she is forever having a 'Just Nice' model like figure to me and  to some of my friends.  
She never had a litter but she is a good surrogate mother! She nursed new kittens I fostered and she is indeed good at doing it without even having her own baby. Cats, most of the time surpass human intelligence!
9         Why I chose to spay/neuter my cat/dog
Mengapa saya memilih untuk memandulkan Kucing/anjing saya
I chose to spay my MiHo because I do not want her to undergo unnecessary labor pains. I do not want her to have any litters which soon will multiply exponentially. She was a stray cat before I met her and she should have a good quality of life now, which means, she has the choice to eat, groom and play at her own sweet time.

Keadaan kucing/anjing semasa diselamatkan
Half of his body was covered in mange. His eyes were practically covered with mange. He pooped some tied up plastic so I decided that he had lived the hard straying life for too long and decided to adopt him.
6         Cat/Dog’s Character
Sifat Kucing/Anjing
Mild-mannered and always be doing cute poses when I ignore him.
7         How my cat/dog got his/her name
Macam mana  kucing/anjing mendapat namanya?
I have a system where I named all the cats I rescue/regularly feed/neuter/spay using the alphabets. He was originally Kucing K and after the first visit to the vet, the vet told me he was most likely 8 years or older, officially a senior cat. Hence the name Datuk K. No relation to Kurap or some infamous husband ye.
8         My cat/dog condition now is….
Keadaan kucing/anjing saya sekarang… .
He changed from ‘Along Kawasan’ who has the loudest meows and stinkiest pee into my house official lap cat. It took a while for him to change his straying ways, spraying his pee and meows loudly, but after he was neutered he can be his true self.  I love you Datuk K!
9         Why I chose to spay/neuter my cat/dog
Mengapa saya memilih untuk memandulkan Kucing/anjing saya
I am doing my part as a concerned human. I will continue to spay and neuter my cats, my community cats/dogs & rescued cats/dogs until all strays are adopted and no strays living in the streets.  I choose to spay and neuter them for their health, mental and physical.
