Happy is putting it midly
Cos i am so happy it's like words can't fully describe it.
But still i wanna remember.
Pops was sitting next to me on the bench while i surfed the net.
And i paused to stroke his head.
He got up and sat closer to me, push his fuzzy head against my right hip and stayed like that, while i stroked his head a couple of times, looking down at him.
And then i said : "Mummy loves u so much Poppy. U love mummy or not?"
In which, the brown fuzzy lifted his head, looked at me and meowed.
Like on cue.
It was like he just replied me "Yes mummy!"
AUW.......ISN'T THAT FREAKING CUTE???
One could just die from all that cuteness.
I didn't make this up.
It seriously happened!!!!!
Shitz!
Poppy understands English! English speaking cat!

Miss Naughty touched stray cat
This was one of the 2 orange teenage cats that grew up at my apartment's car park.
So swaku, right? But i love to touch any cat.
I want cats who sleep on top of each other!
Cheap thrill is when u get to touch other cats.

The round ball sleeping pose with a little tongue sticking out.

My pussy.
The "I can't stand u but i want to sleep on this pillow too."...

The "Oh no, I am at the vet" look
The "I worship mummy" pose

One big happy family. Me and the boys.

The many pictures of the boys



The kaki tempang.


The constant grooming.


I have so many pictures of Meowz and Pops yet it never bores me. I could have 1 million pictures of them in the same pose but i will still love each and every picture.
My boys are my #1.
I must have been a cat in my previous life.
How could u love something(s) so much?
Like when i saw MeowMeow sitting outside the pet shop, this dirty yet adorable looking stray looking up at me with this pitiful eyes, I knew i couldn't leave him behind. I would have fought tooth and nail to bring him home if i had too.
I meowed at him and he meowed back.
I fell in love immediately.
Or like when i saw Poppy in another pet shop, all crammed up in this tiny cat cage. I couldn't take my eyes off the fuzzy cos he looked like a miniature fox. But someone had paid deposit for him and i had to say goodbye.
But weeks and weeks later, in the same pet shop, Poppy was still there. The person had not come and collect him, despite putting a deposit. And i left to go to Ikea with daddy meow but halfway there, i had to call the pet shop owner and asked him if I could still have Poppy. And he said, yes.
That was the happiest moment.
If someone paid deposit but didn't collect him for that long, it means that someone wouldn't have wanted Poppy that badly, right? I wanted Poppy badly. I think I have provided Poppy with more love than that person ever could.
The boys are well loved.

Bangkok and all of it's glory
Hmmm...
This is why i should always write things down immediately, not wait till later...
Old already.
Blind also can see.
So happened that it's his 80th year of rulership and everywhere u go, u will see his face. Quite a handsome fella also. If u draw nonsense on his poster, like give him a moustache or mole or worse, draw obscenities like kotek and vagina on it, u can be hung to death.
Som tam (papaya salad) and thab tim krop (red ruby) is much nicer in Malaysia.


Photography trick habis.
They show u sticks and sticks of meat balls, prawn balls, fish balls, balls everywhere, looking tantalising and savoury...
The actual thing looks yucky.
Those sold in pasar malam here looks more appetising.

Coconuts everywhere.
Point #7
It is known as the land of rip off. The first rip off is in the airport. Never get airport taxi, thinking it's convenient and the right thing to do. It costs 1,300 bahts (RM130) to get to our hotel. It only costed us 325 bahts from hotel to airport with regular cab.
Point #8
There is hardly any tong sampah around. The Thais spent so much on making collosal malls like Centraworld (biggest mall in Southeast Asia) but they don't spend on basic necessities like tong sampah.
So, after all that coconut, where to throw? Daddy meow was walking with coconut, trying to find a bin but no bins. Until he walked into Gaysorn mall, he realised he was walking into a posh mall like Starhill.
Daddy meow : "Oh shit, i am walking in Starhill with a coconut"
Me : "They just scanned my bag....did they scan your coconut?? HAHAHAH!!"
Daddy meow : "No la..."
Me : "But what if u are a maniac with a bomb in the coconut? They not smart leh...scan bags only"
Makes sense, what i said right??? Anyway, seeing him holding that coconut, walking past posh boutiques like Gucci, Givenchy, Aigner, Chanel, just made me laugh so hard, i couldn't breathe for a few seconds. And the laughing fit went on forever. Daddy meow was no amused.
So, dustbins are sacred. If u find one, it's your lucky day. So, think twice before u buy something from the street. This photo of tong sampah i took when at Bangkok airport. Cos it was there....a dustbin!!!
Point #9
Don't go to tiger shows cos they cheat u kau kau. No, we didn't go cos daddy meow says it's not sexy. Cos the girls look ugly. Kotek also cannot get hard. Most of them are ugly. The pretty ones are not pure women. In Patong, we passed by rows and rows of these seedy bars, where from the front entrance, u will see lotsa these girls dancing on the long catwalk like podiums, dressed in bikini. And guys outside will entice u to go in by shoving laminated paper in your face that says :
Pussy smoke ping pong
Pussy smoke cigarrettes
Pussy smoke razor
Point #10
Chatucak market is too hyped up. It's not THAT great.
It is a place where u get really cheap, sorry looking clothes.
I didn't buy anything there...except for PORK RIBS.
These was the ONLY nice street food i had seen by far.
Pork is good. Of course, Mr. Pork got all excited with char siew ribs. More excited than seeing girls in bikini, jiggling away on bar tops.
Don't go to Chatucak market. Seriously. It's lame. Just big but so what? Hot like hell, nothing nice to buy. Seriously, i never go to Petaling Street to buy, why am i going to Chatucak??
So, i hardly bought anything in all the markets i went to. The only markets that are nicer and for girls are : Pratunam market and Suan Lum night bazaar.
But even then, i didn't buy much of anything. Nicer clothes in Malaysia. All that money went to taxi, food and coconuts.
Point #11
Jim Thompson.
My favourite.
I only go to Bangkok for Jim Thompson, really.
But taxi and tuk tuk drivers for some reason don't fancy taking u to Jim Thompson shops.
"I bring u to Thai Silk, cheaper"
And they will bluff u by saying Jim Thompson is closed for the holidays.
One taxi driver said i will bring u to Jim Thompson factory outlet and so we said yes. But it wasn't. It was a generic Thai Silk outlet. Bugger.
These people don't understand - branding. It has to be Jim Thompson silk. I don't want any generic Thai silk! Daddy meow knows my habits well enough. It's just like - i don't want cheap perfume when i can buy a Gucci perfume!??
Daddy meow : "Ya lor...take an ugly piece of silk thing and put Jim Thompson brand on it and u will buy..."
By the time we actually got to Jim Thompson's shop, we had to take a picture of it cos it felt like the forces out there DID NOT WANT US TO GO TO JIM THOMPSON'S SHOPS.

Naturally, i looked like i cleared the store with all the bags i bought. I love their fuss free bags which are not that expensive at all.
Consider this, a RM130 - RM240 Jim Thompson bag vs a RM3000- RM10,000 Gucci bag.
Or the other way....Rm130 - RM240 Jim Thompson bag vs a cheap generic bag which could also cost about RM90 - RM150, depending on design.
But i didn't buy the bags all for myself. 3 bags for the 3 girls, 1 for my mom, 1 for my mom-law, 2 for me. I looked like a bag lady.
Daddy meow : "Are u mad? How many bags u wanna buy lar? Do the 3 girls deserve such a gift? Wah lan ne.....?"
We had so many JT plastic bags when we walked out, i told daddy meow :
"Ok, i got what i came to Bangkok for. My mission is done. I am ready to go home!"
Ok, so all my money went to Jim Thompson, taxi, food and coconuts.
Doppy is...
a SHE. HAHAHA.
Doppy, Poppy, Bobby.
Tiga sekawan.

Wake up Cat
We amused ourselves with cat videos downloaded to daddy meow's phone throughout the flight to Bangkok. Cat videos and also the morbid Happy Tree Friends. This is one of my favourite cat video by far. Bestest....the person who drew this must surely have a cat cos he captured all the cat's charateristics - kneading, the pawing on face, the 360 degree turn....SO FREAKASS CUTE.

Home is where the heart is
And daddy meow is also so glad....that I am home.I think my constant whining about my boys and missing home made him mental.
At the eleventh hour before we depart to Bangkok, i was still trying to convince daddy meow to let me stuff Meowz and Pops inside the luggage.
New version of me explaining to the security during the scan :
Security : Apa ni!?? (peering closely at the tv monitor)
Me : Oh, ini.......ini kucing boneka (with my biggest bambi eyes)
Security : Kenapa macam betul betul punya kucing?
Me : Ini special edition punya kucing boneka. Macam betul punya kucing. Ada tulang tulang punya. Boleh mengiaw, boleh lari, lompat, makan...ini Beyond 2000 punya special prototaip...But seriously...
Because I was whingeing so much, daddy meow hooked up his second laptop with camera to monitor the cats live, from Bangkok.
Heeeeeeheee.....
Miss Bossy wanted to check everyday to make sure that there are 2 cats in view.
In case if mom in law decides to bring them back to her house to play with devil Doppy.
Or, if Poppy became mischievious again and jumped out of the window.
This is how attached I am to my cats.
All the way to airport i was saying i miss the cats.
In the airport i said i miss the cats.
In the airplane i said i miss the cats.
First thing in the hotel room, log into the net to see the cats.
Second day in Bangkok and i said i was ready to go home.
I miss the cats.
I guess i miss the boys more this round because usually, when i travel, daddy meow's at home taking care of them.
But this time, neither one of us will be there.
Just the perpectual fear of something happening to them and we are not there to help drove me to paranoia land.
Or the thought of my cats feeling lonely for 3 whole days.
No one to stroke them.
The camera shows everything.
Poppy on the dining table almost everynight.
Naughty!!!
The dining table is forbidden, they know that.
Yet, the brown naughty derived such great pleasure from sleeping on it in our absence.
Our flight was at 7pm Monday but i made daddy meow change to an earlier flight at 5pm.
So that we could get home earlier.
And celebrate New Year's with Meowz and Pops.
Cos i don't know what to do also in the airport for so long.
My feet, my legs, my shoulders, my neck - all pain. PAIN!!!
Pain from the excessive walking.
I have never walked so much in my life.
But we had to pay RM200 for the earlier flight.
I feel bad...so am gonna pay daddy meow back.
So tired we were everynight that the moment daddy meow's head hits the pillow, he was in zzzz land already. No need for sheep counting.
So much for rekindling whatever romance. Some friends just don't get it when i tell them - to daddy meow, sleep means sleep. Don't wake up the sleeping tiger, very fierce when woken at ungodly hour.
And he drags me out of bed at an unholy 9.30am every morning when i am still trying to count the last sheep. Miss Dracula doesn't wake up so early. Naturally, i was grumpy.
He calls me Miss Grumpazoid. Grumpy at the breakfast table, grumpy all the way till lunch. Grumpy when tired.
After the first day, i told him, i was gonna wake up at 11.30am - go breakfast on your own and eat my share.
Second day he made me walk thru this park to the market i wanted to go to...he said it was very near.
But we walked for like ages till i was gonna bitch slap him from the crazy heat and unbearable pain in the soles of my feet. We never got to the market. Cos halfway i threw a girly tantrum and he shoved me in the cab and we went to the shopping mall instead. Air conditioning is wonderful at times when u need it. I was a royal pain in the butt.
I was so tired, i wanted to say "Pigs fly south" but it came out as "Pligs fleeth slouth"
I was slurring everywhere....tongue also tired.
I saw....a lot of legs and a lot of boobs.
Boobs everywhere.
It's like boobs galore. And the shorter the skirt, the better. Heck some girls even wore oversized men's shirt with no skirt or pants below.
But more of Bangkok later....it's time to pick up on my work.

All Poppy wants is his mummy
Pops is really manja these few days. I bathed him yesterday and normally, after bathing, he would be really manja.

Cat worries....
My bro in law agreed to baby sit the boys when we are away.
Sigh of relief turns to a nagging worry when my mom in law asked "Why don u bring the cats to our house??"
Errr...no way!!!
Put them with Doppy, the evil devil?
Wait, devils are evil, it's redundant to say that.
This shows how EVIL Doppy is.
3 new scratches today, courtesy of Doppy.
I looked at daddy meow in horror.
Cats are terribly territorial.
They do not like to move from one spot to another.
Sounds a lot like me.
When we first moved to this apartment, Meowz had the blues.
First night both fuzzies piled into the bed with us.
They wanted to be near something they knew, admist the unfamiliar surroundings, smells, different nooks and crannies.
I remember daddy meow had said, turn left, got one cat. Turn right, got another cat. Cats everywhere....sleeping, purring...in his face....
I am particulary worried cos they won't know how to take care of my boys in their house.
What happens if Poppy runs out into the garden and onto the street?
He's not street smart, coming straight from his mother's belly to the pet shop and to my house.
He won't know what a car is or the damage it can render.
Splat!
Once, daddy meow stupidly left the front door of our apartment ajar and the tyke ran out!
When he realised it, Poppy was already mid way down the long corridor.
Upon seeing daddy meow running towards him, Pops started to run as well, meowing so loudly that even the deaf can hear.
When he reached the stairs, he jumped thru the railing.
But got caught mid air by daddy meow who managed to grab the fuzzy's back legs JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME.
If not, poor Pops would be in heaven now.
And daddy meow in hell.
Grrrrrrr.....
I think, daddy meow knew how i could chop him up and make soup out of him if he didn't catch Poppy, so he used his super human strength to run and catch up with the naughty.
Think about it - can anyone outrun a small cat?
Nope.
But daddy meow did.
Never trust older people to look after your cat.
Especially the in-laws and my dad.
Once, in Athens, my dad let Meowz outside the garden, despite me telling him for the billionth time not to let the orange one out, especially after his horrible accident.
But stubborn as usual, my dad let him out to the garden.
The orange one jumped across the wall into the neighbour's garden and then the next wall and the next.
Went missing for the whole day until my dad started to panic.
No amount of calling brought Meowz back.
So, the moment daddy meow got home, he told my dear husband to SHUSH!
And the two conspirators when searching for Meowz in the night.
Finally saw the naughty one in the garden of a house down the road.
My dad had to use the ladder to climb into people's garden to grab the orange one and bring him home.
Then only did daddy meow call me and asked me -
1. how was my day, and
2. MeowMeow is fine and still alive
3. Nothing out of the ordinary happened
4. NO, my dad did not let him out
It was only when i came back daddy meow cracked and the whole truth came out.
Bad bad men.
I was whingeing to daddy meow - what IF his mom decides to BRING both boys back to their house despite telling her not to???? I know she can be just as stubborn....
After rolling his eyes for the umpteenth time, he told me to post a BIG BIG signage that says :
My cat rules :
1. Do not bring home the cats to your house
2. Do not bring Doppy into our house (Doppy still has ticks - and ticks love Poppy's marshmallow fur)
3. Do not leave the door ajar
This is terrible. While i may still joke a bit about it, i am petrified at the thought of leaving my cats in the hands of his parents. I didn't mind his brother, but Mr. Dumbass here had to also tell his mom and now, it has become more of his mom's job than his brother's.
I know i can't trust my dad.
He'll probably let Poppy out!
And of course, i can't ask my mom - she will probably faint at the sight of my badly scratched up couch.
Or worse, mop my floor and disinfect everything everyday till i come back.
"Aiya, u don't go la....I go with my girlfriend!"
"FINE BY ME....go la!"
Somebody angry already ready.
Better not come back home with a funny looking orange cat and a weird looking brown mainecoon persian.
These boys are priceless - if lost, daddy meow must find back the same orange cat with white chest with tempang kaki and, brown marble cat with gigi taring senget and a terribly naughty, worried face.
Would i be such a good mummy if i had my own daughter?
Perhaps not.

What to bring to Bangkok?
It's always the same lament.
"Sure, u try and see...."
This is how i imagined it to be. Drug the fuzzies and stuff them inside my luggage. And when it goes thru the scanner, the security would see two mini skeletal frame in the stupidest pose.
"APA NI?"
"Oh, itu.....itu soft toy la"
"Kenapa soft toy ada tulang tulang?"
"Ah, ni soft toy special punya. Macam betul punya haiwan. Special technology..."
U think they will believe me??? U think? Hey, if Kenny Sia could stuff his hamsters into his backpack and it went thru the scanner successfully, why not my boys?
Merry XMas.

Washing the cat toilet

Which is more fun - cleaning vomit or scooping poop???

Animals are therapeutic
--------------------------------------------------------------------
My cutie pie.
Light as a cloud. Soft as cotton.All the girls like Pops.

Meow was actually sitting facing me when Pops hopped onto the bed, clumsily ambled in front of the orange one's face. Orange one didn't like one bit. I saw Meowz trying to bite Poppy's furry feet as the brown fuzzy brushes by Meowz' face irreverently. I guess they will never be BFF. But somehow, they tolerate each other well. I think despite some animosity and jealousy, they both appreciate each other's presence. Especially when i am not at home. They sure chase each other a lot, playing tag.
Pops eventually sat down on the bed right smack in front of the orange one's face.
Meowz' immediately turned his back to face Pops.
Don't like. He's probably thinking "Niama, i climb onto bed with mommy, this small one also copy. No peace. Show my backside to the spoilt brat"
And Poppy's like "Big brother in bed, I also follow. What big brother do, i also must do"
Youngest child syndrome.
Sometimes if i let only Meowz into the room, the small one would be squeaking in dismay outside the door.
After a while, Pops got up, went up to Meowz' backside and sat down on it, touching the orange one. They look like twins, conjoined to the backside in this photo. How adorable. I don't think Meowz' likes it one bit but Poppy's like la li la li la....i am sitting here with big brother...
Pops' purrs sound like pigeons cooing. It's really very unique.

Poppy is up to naughtiness again
Poppy almost burnt down the apartment!!!
Naughty devil!
The first thing Daddy meow said when i came home was "POPPY IS NAUGHTY!"
He had gone home first and went to the kitchen area and felt that it was really warm.
Like hot.
Like the stove was on.
He looked.
And it WAS on.
One of the 4 switches was turned on.
Probably the whole day.
My stove is the flat type that uses electricity.
Imagine the bill that's gonna come later....
Ugh. But that's besides the point.
The naughty one actually jumped up to the stove area, somehow managed to paw at a switch and turn it on.
It takes a bit of strength to turn it on and i wonder how he did it.
It's Pops.
It can't be MeowMeow.
The orange angel would not do that.
(pinsam, pinsam)
No seriously, I have seen Pops pulling, tugging at things with his paw.
Like sometimes, when he wants to drink water.
And felt that the bowl was too far away from him.
So, instead of moving closer to the bowl, he PAWS at the bowl to bring it closer to his mouth.
Naughty!
Sometimes, he paws too roughly, the bowl tips over, water everywhere!
Mommy to clean up!
Pet shop cats. Naughty naughty naughty!!
What's the brown naughty doing now?
Sleeping nearby me, looking terribly naughty but adorable at the same time.
Adorably naughty.
What am i gonna do with Pops?

Doppy is incorrigible
(feeling sorry for myself)
The minion of evil - Doppy.
She/He (still don't know) is so hyper that she flies and jumps at the same time.
And never start eye contact. I stupidly looked right into her eyes and meowed at her to come to me...the next thing i know, she crouched down low low on the floor, body, head low....spring legs loaded...in an instant combustion of power, she LUNGED across the room, right towards...ME.
I screamed. Throughout the night, u can just hear me screaming.
Very painful, i shit u not.
Cos everytime she lunged at me, she would dig her claws right into my body, leg or hands and bite hard. Ouch. Drew some blood on my hands.
Meowz and Pops are angels, Doppy is the devil.
Sometimes, even when i was just sitting there minding my own business, patting Bobby, the minion of evil would attack me by springing onto my body out of nowhere.
Thank god i was wearing jeans. Cos i wore leggings and daddy meow said "U are wearing this? Is that Doppy proof???" Yes, as always, the brain was right. If i had worn leggings, i would have more scratches then.
Eeee...don't want this type of cat.
While Doppy's bigger and fatter now, I don't see the connection she has with people. It's like when u look into her eyes, u see a black pool of blankness. She doesn't manja anyone. She just treat people as preys. It's weird. I have never seen a cat like that.
Perhaps, after going to cut cut, then she may be more docile.
Let's wait mid Dec and see.....bwahahaha.
