Our Manja Cats

From left: Missy, Tigger, Harmony & Ve Ching

This picture may seem a strange way to introduce you, the reader, to my four cats. But sadly, it is the only one that I have of all four of them together. Maybe one day, I'll try placing their food bowls in a row on the floor and take a picture of their front. But it is no easy feat placing them side by side, as it is, cos Missy is very likely to thump Tigger and Ve Ching to menace Missy.

All four cats were adopted, either directly off the streets of Singapore, from an acquaintance or from the SPCA. The adoptions started with Tigger in 2000, followed by Ve Ching in 2001, Harmony in 2002 and Missy in 2003. We also had another kitten and a dog, but both have since passed away. The kitten, Biscuit, passed away after only 10 days with us. She was Tigger's sister. Both had a very bad start to life, but Tigger surprised us by pulling through. Our dog, Loy Loy, whom we adopted in 2002, passed way in November 2004, at the ripe old age of 13.

More about all of them in future posts!
