barbar554 has a good point of whiskas and other supermarket food. but you need to remember, it may not kill them now, but slowly it will. and trust me, when they eat this food, they easily get addicted to it, and will reject all other food. like us also lah, keropok/junk food will always be number 1 first because of the sweet taste

if u have fussy or cerewet cat, so hard to pujuk them to eat other food if they got addicted with junk food.
since your cat like to escape to go outdoor, it will have high possibility to get mites from outside.
if you going to have indoor and outdoor cat both at the same time, better get the equipment to clean the ears by yourself. its more convenient than going to the vet every week.
vaccine you need once a year. but if your cat never vaccine, they will do it 2 times for the first shot, one after another.
deworm u cat do atleast every 3 or 4 months a year.
ear cleaning week or every time u groom them or maybe every time u see they get itchy and wax.
vaccine normally rm30-rm40 depends on the vet.
neuter normally will do after 4 months.. u must vaccine your cat before neuter. so let say if u vaccine him in September, the second shot will be october (since he's first time with vaccine right), and in november you can neuter him.
i found some people neuter without vaccine, yes u can, but its your responsible lah if anything going wrong. since its going to be a cut on the body, so germs and virus easily get into your cat.
p/s i think u can check the thread on vets list in Petswonderland. maybe they have list of vet in bangsar.
Yes yes. My Happy SUKA sangat tu whiskas dan friskies..cepat makan and can eat a lot! I hope I have been
lucky to have stop feeding him after 2 months. So far I think I have fed him 3pkt X 1.5kg Whiskas
and 1pkt X 1.4kg Friskies plus other wet food. Hopefully no serious damage done to him...Kesian...but he
looks fine and very active & nakal..
He is very playful...anything that moves is sort of toy for them! And they like to bite all the time! Macam everything
that moves boleh main aje! Is biting part of playing? I wonder? He really likes to bite....maybe coz they kecik lagi still
teething like baby

its alwiz a sad moment wen we intend to loose some one or thing we love and care soo much, but tat is part and parcel of this life lah katakan...
but thank god till now the only time i lost my pets are due to death by old age...

and not due to my negligence...i dont think i can bare the fact tat my pet is lost somewer out there and i dont know and cant do anything bout it...
animal abuse its soo common in our country...we just dont have the proper laws to take action unlike countries like US and so on...
i remember wen i was 8 a penjual sayur & ikan at my housing area actually found a dead dog skinned and mutated and was chucked by the road side...out of curiosity i went to check it out with my friends...i still cant get the image out of my head... and i think tat incident actually mengajar me to be more loving and better still be more caucious bout my pets.
tapi sometimes...kalo benda nak menjadi, nuttin we can do...

YEs...what a pity

We don't have that canggih law to punish those animal abuser here in Msia
Perhaps we should bring up this issue to our MP in our area
Another thing that always make me bengang

is those dog owners who brng their dogs to
jalan2. They allow their stinking dogs to poo in ppls garden atau mana2 tempat. We shoud have
a law like in the States that you must bring your own plastic bag to pick your dog poo after their pet has
done their business when out walking. Even Mat Salleh does the same here although back home they have
to stick to the law. Hiiiii...Bengang betul
