Caged

About once every 3-4 weeks, the maid will come to my house to do some major cleaning. During this 4 hours, the Spice Cats are caged to prevent them from going outside.

Mummy, when are you letting us out?

Is the maid done yet? Are you here to let us out?


I'm taking a nap while waiting.


*Kiss * *Kiss*


Oppss...mummy caught us kissing *blush*


I'm gonna take a nap too.

She's not done yet? *Yawn* Wake me up when she's done.

Its not that crowded. Look! There is actually space for another cat!

A man and a cat

Took these photos on the 31st of December. A guy, who does not particularly fancy cat, with Sesame. I think both of them make very good models.

Sesame : Head-scratch is the best.

Sesame : Its just 2 of us, man-to-man.

Sesame : Don't think you know how to carry a cat, boy. We shall just stick with head-scratching.

Sesame : Mmmm...that's more like it...heaven...

How to avoid being sit on

Sesame : I love being in mummy's room, especially when its hot and she blast the air-con. If it gets too cold, I'll just hide under the covers. The problem is, sometimes mummy didnt see me and sat on me! So I figured out a way to prevent being sit on.....

I just leave my paw for mummy to see and know I am there!

Sometimes to be safe, I leave 2 paws! Smart huh?

Catnip Ball

As I was doing some cleaning for the coming Chinese New Year, I found some old catnip.

So I decided to make a catnip ball for the Spice Cats using some old rag.

Sesame came to check out the new toy, cautiously at first.

Then he fell in love with the smell.....Mmmm....

Sesame : This smells and feels so good.....

Sesame : I need to get it all over my body! Its just too good!

Sesame : What? Its mine! Its mine! No one is taking it away from me!


After realizing that no one is gonna steal the toy away, he took a rest, after playing with it for more than 30 minutes.....


Sharlene and the Spice Cats wishes everyone a Happy Chinese New Year! Gong Xi Fat Cai!

The funny hole....

Sesame has always been fascinated by the human toilet. Whenever you are in the toilet, if you do not close the door, he'll go into the toilet with you, curious at what you are doing inside. And if you close the door, he'll be waiting outside. Some of my friends who are not used to Sesame's habits nearly stepped on him when they come out from the toilet.


Then one day...he take he decide to check out what is so great with the toilet bowl.....

I wonder what the humans do on this thing.... it makes the funniest sound with the humans press something on top...

Mmmm....the hole looks funny....water is too deep for me to drink...

Its Curtains Day Again!

Every year, before Chinese New Year, I will remove ALL the curtains and wash them all at once. This is one of the favorite days of the Spice Cats.

I expected Garlic or Sesame to come bouncing on the curtains, but this year, it was the gals that were taking advantage of the soft clean fluffy curtains.

Especially Ginger....

She absolutely loved the curtains.....

Took a nap with her face burried in the curtains....

Twisting and turning....

Then opened her eyes when she realized I am just above her, snapping photos...

Yawn....But who cares.....as long as I don't hang the curtains up, they are happy...

Bad Scratches

Radcliff, Allie, Luna & Ozzie suggested that I try to ask around to see whether there is anyone who is interested in adopting the Night Visitor. Actually, that was my initial thought. I planned to bring the Night Visitor to the vet for a check-up after a few weeks when he is used to being around me. If there is no major illness, I can then try to put him up for adoption.

On Sunday, I changed my mind. I was coming back from an early breakfast with my parents. The cat was waiting for me at my front door. When I opened my door, he tried to rush inside the house. I do not want him near the Spice Cats yet as he is not vaccinated and I am not sure whether he carry any diseases. So, on impulse, I used my right leg to block his entry. I must have startled him as he grabbed hold of my leg and started scratching and biting me!

The wounds, that Sunday afternoon. It looked pretty OK, so i sorta ignored if after I put some anti-septic.

But slowly, the wound started to hurt and my leg slowly started to get swollen. On Sunday night, my friend brought me to the clinic. The doctor cleaned my wound, gave me an injection and some medication.

This is how it looks on Monday. The foot was slightly swollen and it was even painful to walk.

There are also some scratches underneath my foot.

This is taken on Tuesday night, still a bit swollen, but not as painful.


By Wednesday, it was not painful to walk anymore, although the foot was still a bit swollen.

I am quite annoyed that my training at the gym is interrupted. The doctor said that I must keep the wound dry at all times to prevent infection. So, I had to put a plastic bag over my right foot when I shower. Gym is allowed as sweat will wet the wound.

This is a good reminder to myself. I should be more careful around stray cats. I am so used to being around the Spice Cats who will never hurt me on purpose that I was careless. I will be much more careful next time.

Why cant I go out?

I have to explain to Ginger that she is a house cat. Outdoors are dangerous, she may get ran over by a car, catnap by some stranger, chased by some stray dogs or catch some fleas or diseases.

Night Visitor

There is a night visitor that comes to the Spice Cats house about once or twice a week. It is easy to know when he is there as he will poke his head at the door and meow for my attention, asking for food. I, of course, will happily oblige by providing him some food or whatever leftovers that the pampered Spice Cats refused to eat.

The visitor gulping down the Whiskers Seasfood canfood, which the Spice Cats refused to eat.

He finished the whole canfood Yummy!

Pepper came to the door to check out the visitor. I am kinda surprised they didn't hiss at each other.

Even Ginger, the timid one, came to check out the visitor.

Visitor : Mmmm....I wonder if there is more food.....
