2017 is a year of mixed feelings

Though 2017 marks a new beginning for our family, to continue life anew. I am truly grateful with the Lord's blessings, that all of us were able to walk hand in hand out of our grievances and continue life afresh. Family members have learnt to be more forthcoming and caring as life is totally unpredictable.
 
The 3 children continue with their lazy go easy lifestyle:
 
- We are truly thankful, that Goldie's open wound in her left paw finally got healed. She is now taking Chinese medicine with the hope to cure those lumps in her ears and chin. Though it is too early to see whether Chinese medicine could help, but Goldie is really a very understanding child. She takes those smelly, bitter liquid Chinese medicine without a grain of salt. Goldie dear, I really hope your efforts will pay off handsomely. Lord, please answer our prayer.
 
- Betty has matured this year and remains the elegant lady. She seems to have assumed the role of PR cat. Becoming more friendly with human, though at times, she teases baby brother Felix.
 
- Felix not only grew in weight and size, he also showed us that he is a quick learner and adapts well to pressure. By coincidence, I found out that laser pointer is his favorite toy, making him dash around like a Ferrari.......
 



 
 
 
 

 
 
In less than 6 hours, 2017 will be soon be history.  
 
We want to wish our friends a Happy, Healthy & Joyous 2018!
 

December is a challenging but rewarding month

The children were pretty successful in their Christmas Charitable drive. A big Thank You to all who have LIKED their picture. They came in second and won a total of 10 kg of dry cat food and 1 bag of cat litter, all of which have been donated to Connie Wong, a reputable cat volunteer.
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Felix also went had his luck in his second cat show in mid-December. He is a quick learner and adopts well. Though unplaced in 2 of the 5 rings. He came in 2nd (a total surprise to us), 7th and 8th in the other 3 rings and came in 8th out of 21 competitors in the Household Pet Category. The most rewarding thing is we learn more on how to make our children a more adorable and happy kid.

October again!

October... a month of mixed feelings... On October 6th, Kitty dear, you will become a 4 year old angel. I'm sure you have a lot of friends, enjoying the freedom, healthiness and peacefulness. We all am proud to have you in our family. Though we miss your presence, but love never fades.



Yesterday, both of your sisters Goldie and Betty, and brother Felix went to church for St. Francis Xavier service. Apart from receiving the blessings from the Lord, we learn't from the sermon, that its true that we shall meet someday.

So Kitty, have you met our daddy yet? He went to heaven in December last year while in his sleep. I'm sure both of you must have a lot of catching up to do. Keep the conversation going.... We miss you both. God bless you all!

 
 
As an aside, is Betty really so attentive during the service?

A special experience


Sunday, 13th August was a special day for Felix and us. Felix made his maiden debut at the Summer Cat Show Red Hot Heat Competition.

He started the day looking timid and shy, guessing what he needs to do and whether we would pick him up. For most of the morning, when he had the chance, he preferred to show his buttock rather than his face.  He responded to the judge’s examinations, though in the first ring, he wanted to walk out of the stage by himself.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
After a short afternoon nap, he seemed to have recharged and ready to go on. He appeared more interested in the surrounding, enabling us to see more of his face. He even looked up at the judges when they tried to muster his response.
 

 
All of Felix’s hard work and courage paid off handsomely. He didn’t go home empty handed!!  Instead, he carried with him a beautiful rosette - 7th place in Ring 4! This sure had exceeded our expectations!




We as parent learnt more on how to bring up our children. Apart from hygiene, proper grooming, physical and psychological health, self discipline are equally important. Ideally, the child will also have to be outgoing, as some competitors aggressively extend their greetings to the judges by saying “Choose Me, I’m your star!”

Through this exercise, we come to know Felix better. He is actually pretty intelligent, a quick learner and adapt fast. Felix, we believe your are a special child from God. Over time, we hope you will grow to like human interactions and would enjoy serving the less privilege.

We would like to extend our gratitude to Auntie Z and Auntie M for taking good care of Felix. Above all to Mandy Tang for loving and caring about her grandson Felix.  The other cat (son of Mandy Tang) in the photo is Tiger Baby - a highly intelligent and gifted actor who is well licked by the judges.

Betty's 3 years old Birthday Party

Time flies, Betty is 3 years old today!

During the past 3 years, she has developed from a "Hong Kong Girl" into now a bright, understanding and caring sister. Whenever she knows Felix wants a share of her pie, she would quietly move to the sideline. Unfortunately, Felix the Rascal is formed. Betty remains energetic and loves to play catch and wrestling with Felix. However, she has not ignored Goldie. Instead, she would occasionally goes over and give Goldie a gentle kiss!!

Betty, mummy thank you for making the efforts to grow into a better child. May you continue to remain in good health and have lots of joy and happiness with this family. God bless you, dear!
