Smiling Nap

Tiptoeing to check on Winnie napping, our human noticed that there was a smile on Winnie's face.
Was Winnie really smiling or was it our human's imagination?

Warm Dreams!

Our human found Winnie sleeping in a sunbeam spot at her usual place in the MeowYard.

Her twitching whiskers indicated she was dreaming. Perhaps sleeping in that sunbeam spot gave her nice dreams.

May you all have nice happy dreams!

Propping Paw

Our human found Winnie sleeping in a rather cute position with one paw propping her chin.

It is definitely a plus that Winnie could not hear well when our human made a mad dash for the handphone and then back snapping away before Winnie's feline built-in survival instinct kicked in to awake.

Leak Exhibited!

No necessity for words to describe.

She definitely leaks; see arrow.

Psst, our human sometimes is wickedly mischievous!

Stranger in My Water Bowl !

Few days ago our human awoke startled to Winnie's meowing. It was loud and sounded urgent! Immediately jumped out of bed, our human checked Winnie's food dish; there were still some food.

Our human then went to the MeowYard, switched on the light (still dark as it was early morning) and saw this.

Wide awake now, that critter was quickly disposed, bowl cleaned and filled up; all this while with Winnie's scrutinising supervision.

She then went to drink. She was thirsty!

PS: The almost daily long torrential rain forced many crawlies to emerge.

MeowHole also a SpyHole?

Our human wondered why Winnie always rest on a certain spot on the MeowYard.

Few days ago our human walked past and from the corner of the eye noticed Winnie looking through the MeowHole.

When trying to snap photos, Winnie got up to walk in the MeowRoom. Our human wanted to title this 'Looking Through the MeowHole' but  remembered Winnie is not the first kitty who did this and looked up which kitty did it first.

Cooler Tiled Floor

When it did not rain, the days are extremely hot with scorching sun.

Winnie prefers the cooler tiled floor of her MeowYard after her human slave had mopped the floor.

This unforgiving weather can change suddenly. Strong winds can bring sudden heavy downpour with lightning and thunder. We even had hailstones.

With her hearing-impairment, Winnie was unperturbed and slept through the noise and ruckus!

I am Deaf?

Our human slave has been behaving, doing something funny lately and communicated with brother who resides in another country through whatsapp. Below is the conversation that turned out rather funny.

Slave: Think my 18-year-old kitty is deaf!

Bro: Did the vet do a test or you tested it yourself?

Slave: I tested myself for a few days. This morning I knocked on glass pane above her head till my knuckles were sore; no response! Knocked on wood behind her; no response! No wonder she had absolutely no problem with loud thunders and lightning that caused electrical trips in the house!

Bro: Old cat lah. Too tired to respond to knocking on glass pane. Heard that a thousand times before. As to thunders, same lah. Used to it already loh...

Slave: Thunders were so loud that sometimes even I jump up!

Bro: Only human jump when they hear loud noises.  Animals don't jump, they crouch. The cat is old and already couching; cannot crouch any lower lah...aiya!!!

PS: Suffixes 'lah', 'loh'and 'aiya' are local slang that give emphasis, affirmation, exasperation, or exclamation.

Vampire Look No More!

Few days ago, our human found a 'fang' on the lower level of the hardwood podium in the MeowYard and quickly checked on Winnie.

Indeed she lost her 'menacing-looking' fang! That particular fang was at an odd angle for a while.

Thinking back, our human thought Winnie was extra whiny and clingy prior to losing it.

PS: Couldn't blog last week due to long, heavy thunderstorm.

Rainy Days

It has been rainy a lot daily these days. There's not much to do except to rest.
Our human's ancient monitor is getting more blur and will get a new replacement only when absolutely necessary. For now wordings and pictures are still visible.

Cleaning Up

Winnie tries very hard to clean herself but there are many places which she now cannot reach.

Her slave cleans her up with a damp cloth on a daily basis. Winnie enjoys this moment as she purrs continuously.

Snoopervisor Winnie

She hollered early this morning waking her slave up demanding breakfast.

Bleary eyed, the slave doled out wet food from the packet and then tottered to the MeowYard.

Winnie gobbled down a few mouthfuls and rushed out to snoopervise the MeowYard cleaning.

This time the slave remembered; phone in pocket!

Quick Change!

A leisurely day, our human sauntered into the MeowYard and saw Winnie ridiculously comical on her back with her two hind legs propped up on her scratchboard!

Naturally our human rushed into the house to grab the phone and came back to this.

Winnie did a 'quick change'!

A little reminder to human; always have the phone with you!

Side-Eyed!

Wanting to snap her resting, our human crept into the MeowYard at Winnie's favourite spot. She opened her eyes when our human tip-toed alongside and then gave the side-eye!

Our human quickly moved off after snapping this!

Food Bits?

Winnie called, ate and left those food bits for her 'slave' to clean up. Well, what can her 'slave' do except to stop eating lunch to give Winnie a full body damp wipe down, combing and more food before continuing lunch (slave's lunch that is).

PS: Actually there were more bits of food which our human had removed some but mid-way realised that this makes a good picture for posterity. It wasn't easy snapping these photos as Winnie kept moving and head-butting.

Clenched Fist?

Our human did not snap any photos of Winnie this week and decided walk in to the MeowYard where Winnie was having an afternoon siesta.

While the handphone was clicking away, Winnie opened her eyes and our human saw this.

Was that a clenched fist? 

Was Winnie trying to show how she felt when her rest was disturbed by that soft clicking noise?

Clean Pads a Must

Winnie is not fussy but utterly fastidious! She will call non-stop if there were drools or patches of leaks on it.

So demanding loud she is that our human had to drop everything to give priority in changing the soiled pad.

Here she is having her afternoon siesta on her newly changed spanking clean pads.
