I wonder, some time ago I brought my cat to the vet for the yearly booster, after the injection the spot where it was injected had some sort of bulge there... you can see the slight bulge but when I pat my cat there and rub it the cat doesn't seem to be in pain. Is the bulge suppsed to be there like human BCG jabs? It's been a week already and I can feel it's not as big as before... just want to know if this is normal.

errrk yearly booster? did u actually ask the vet what is the medicine for? is it vaccine? i never see any bulge after vaccine on my cat skin, cant really see though.

eikk a bulge? never happen to my cat before..
what's a booster,btw?
is it vaccination or deworm..etc?or supplement for appetite? sori no clue what booster is
maybe u can share with us.what is for and how much does it cost for a shot?

thats why i was surprise too.. was wondering what booster heehe if it is cheap and good i also want. but see what booster first lah, energy booster, botox booster ehehe or maybe hormone booster.. if hormone i dont lah, cos no used, my cat no need hormone anymore

hahaha ya true!mine oso lah.
i heard they got booster for making the cat fat and it costs only RM15.

i think that one is some sort like supplement to increase appetite.

Err the yearly vaccination I guess... anyway today I checked again, the bulge is almost nonexistant. She seems happy so I guess she's okay.

ya i also think it is the vaccine.. not booster the bulge maybe happen because of painful injection. just like when the mosquitoes bite our skin. i dont think it will bring any sensitivity to your cat. vaccine should be good stuff for the cats. send my flying kiss to your kitty cat

Yeap, like fatso Oren!

Fat and lonely = More sleep!





Hi yitjuan,

I've been wanting to ask this question but keep forgetting

You're not staying in Malaysia izit?

Cuz judging by the outdoor photos with Muffin before, the mention of the weather and a heater indoors and look at the grass in the above pix... Doesn't look like local to me

Update on Mia (previously known as Ming Ming...)

Can't seem to think of any other name for her unless I agree with my husband to call her "Violet" So I think Mia is way better

Picked her up on Saturday afternoon.

Upon arriving home, to my surprise Oren is actually very charming towards her

He was trying to be very-very-very friendly with her while all Mia could do was hiss and growl with all her might(siap saliva dropping tu... )

I find her tone and all very different, my husband keep thinking she's some sort of "kucing hutan" Her 'meow' is veryyy different

Anyway, all the while Oren is being sweet and nice to her, trying to talk to her with meowing softly, but the response he gets is "HISSSSS"...

1st night still the same, Oren kept his cool until I think he also got "bengang" and hissed back at her... Not the "Lets Fight" hiss, but more like "You think only you can hiss ka" hiss

All I need to do is stroke Oren gentle and tell him to calm down and he's back to his soft wuzzy fuzzy self

2nd night without fail Oren tries to approach Mia. She hisses, and he'll just move back and sit infront of the cage... Very calm and funny...

This morning Mia seems restless in the cage, so I let her out with close supervision, she even brushed close with Oren but did not hiss at him(perhaps tired the whole night hissing while Oren sat infront of the cage...)

So Oren thot she dah OK and lightly tap her from the back to play, then she turned and hiss... Bwahahaha, so funny... I think Oren seriously cannot wait to ajak her play-play... So I had to tell Oren to wait summore, she still hasn't warmed up yet

Anyhow, seems things are going good!

Will post some pixs in a bit


KP

sound so cute when they hissing each other on first meeting thats happen when a cat meet each other right, greetings eheheeh

I don't think hissing and growling is a good greeting, more like "get the hell away from me" greeting...

Pix time...



***Mia*** (Hard to take her face, cuz she will move...)



Mia mad at Oren and hide in litter box while Oren faithfully looks at her...



"Oren... Look here..." *click*


KP

ya hissing means warning. its normal in feline behavior. but then, most cat will have that hissing when meeting other cat for the first time. i always like to say it as greetings rather that "come fight with me - this is my warning" = that sound so bad isnt it.

owh glad to her that ur cat is fine now

last time my fluffy and fuzzy hissing to each other when they 1st time met.. 1st day i just separate them.. 2nd day i put them in one big cage. then 3rd day i put at carrier.. they really hissing a lot.. then next day i see they already sit quietly.. i still put in the carrier for few days then they already become friend.. run there run here.. i got headache already.. i sleep they play jump2 on top of me..

put the food and the water far from the litter.. too near lo.. later the sand go into the food/water..

oh man... he is obviously fat... how old is he now..?

btw... here are my 'oren' photos... i call him danish... he is now 5-month plus...








i brought him home when he was 6-week old due to health reason at the previous owner's house... this is him when he was 4-week old...

Ooo, Danish a smaller version of Oren

Hello for all cats lover....I have problem...My beloved cat dead yesterday...My wife is very sad...Now I'm looking for kitten or cats age < 1 year to replace my cat. Anybody who want to sell or looking for adoption parent.My location in Kedah but I can reach Penang or KL to see ur cat..Just inform to me.

Hope I can get White-Persian kitten/cat..thx everybody.

i really think within this coming few months he'll get fatter... since i give him RC + Blackwood... 2-3 times boiled chicken breast a week... and boiled beef once in a while...

Then he surely will be bigger!

I heard that beef(red meat) is not so good for cats?


KP

its good for bengal. but need frequent deworm. maybe beef bring more worms. some give raw meet. some give half cook meet. but i still prefer giving chicken.

but if i have extra cash i sure do give beef sometimes. but then beef is kinda expensive, me myself can't afford to buy beef every week so i just by chicken and share it with my kitty cats.
