Congrats

The time I went to her place it was only his 2nd day in there.
So he was still quite shy and not use to the new environment yet.
but now almost a week my gf said he is running all over the house already. the first pic was yesterday's, he is starting to play hide n seek with her

btw for a bsh this kitty is quite noisy. make sound all the time. more like an attention seeker, meowing every time being left alone. before poop oso meow, after poop oso meow. lol

would like to share a picture of one of my furry babies here

How much did your gf get it for?
And lol, there is no such thing as "For a BSH, this kitten is considered noisy". Every cat got their own personality and being vocal or not does not depends on breed most of the time. UNLESS you're talking about Siamese, they are pretty well known as the most vocal cat. Siamese membebel all day long =__=

Kittens have the tendency to meow a lot, especially if they feel unsecured. People says that it takes 6 months for a cat to completely settle down in a place/owner. But as for my experience, it takes about 3-4 months for the cat to be absolutely comfortable with everything around it.

Most cats goes crazy after pooping, Japanese calls it "toilet high". As in they meow/run/jump all around before/after they go to toilet. Unexplainable why they does that though. xDD

Peko > Nico > Kagehiko

yeah i do know every cat has their own char, but normally BSH can be considered a quiet cat.
Hence, I wrote it that way.

My GF got the cat for SGD$2k. The breeder is the VP of local CFA. Thomas Low. Nice fellow.

How do you get it transported here? I'm curious about how is the procedure for cats to be import/export from sg-msia XD

Actually we are both working and staying in Sg, so yeah no import/export involved.
although iirc getting from singapore to malaysia no need to quarantine
but from malaysia to sg need to quarantine 30days.

We were thinking of getting a kitty from malaysia and import it into Sg.
but boarding fee per day at the quarantine centre is like $18 a day, which is gonna cost about $540 total
and we dont want the kitty to be stressed and alone for 30 days, thats gonna effect
its temperament.

I've just asked my breeder friends about importing pets to m'sia. Generally it's not much of a big hassle as long as you follow the rules and regulation. Quarantine is only up to 7 days.
But if in Sabah /Sarawak, quarantine is min 6months. O___________O

Yes, I have recently changed from woody cat litter to OKO plus and I love it.
Its so cost saving and most important NO SMELL.
I can help you get 40 litres for RM130.00
Outside I think selling RM160 and above.

very nice cat..... im sure she/he manja a lot

hi all..i'm currently kinda worried bout my DLH kitten Lilo...she's being infected with fungus on her right paw n currently on her 1st week treatment that needed me to feed her the medicine everyday....already started since monday but there is no improvement...all i can see her paw becomes worst...juz feel sad coz i can't let her out n she can't also play with my other cat.

still dunno what's the cause for the infections as i clean the cats' litter box everytime i saw pee or poo...i also wiped their playpen's and room's floor everyday after work..sumtimes with dettol sumore...

currently i also apply some antifungus cream to her paws and it seems the fungus already infected her left elbow area too....everytime i come to her room, she will give this sad look as saying to let her go out n play but i don want other area to get infected too...other than that she eats, drinks, pee n poo as usual..

thinkin of going to the vet again but she's already on 1 week treatment so mayb i'll juz have to be patient..juz hoping that she can be healthy again after dis..

ady send to vet ? if got melarat . maybe lose the foot

Hi all, i heard there's a cat shelter in Nilai, anyone know its name or address?
Or at least some clues for me to start from...Thanks a bunch

Why dont you try bathing her with Malaseb?
Malaseb is very good in treating fungus in cats and kittens.
I usually bathe my cats with this shampoo and dont even need to bring them to the vet.
For chronic cases, you will need to bathe your cat at least 3 times in a week.
For mild cases, once a week will be enough.
Do this until you see small little hairs growing. This usually happens very fast.
You will also need to disinfect your house and the sleeping area of the cat so that other cats in the house will not get infected. For your information fungal spores is spread by air so does not mean you quarantine your cat with fungal the other cats will not get it.

Already sent to vet n the dr gave me medicine for 1 week treatment 1st..after that only use shampoo if needed...my lilo is only 4 months old...really can loose the foot?...thinking of bringing her again rite after this..

Added on January 6, 2012, 5:28 pmMay i know where to get this malaseb...i quarantine her in a room in a playpen all by herself...but i still let the other cat go into the room...so she only seperated by the playpen...for now i only wipe the floor everyday with dettol...really frightened when sum1 said can loose her foot..
