Hurray Hurray MiTao is now 7kg....finally after months after trying to keep her weight down to below 7kg mark, she is now at 7kg exactly.

MiTao is small in stature and in length, and she is most likely a senior dog of around 6-8 years old - hence for her health, it is better to keep her in the lower range of 6kg...

Problem is MiTao is an abused dog and she loves her food n lives to eat too -- to deprive this angelic gal of her primary enjoyment in life is cruel but I have no wish to save her from heartworm then let her die from chronic lifestyle disease/illness...so me have to be cruel

Have not met with much success making her lose weight thot she eats little -- 1/4 barf with her veg puree and supplements in the morning cos my mom is feeding her in my absence...until recently when she saw MiTao grasping for breath n I told her bluntly cos MT is too fat n cannot breathe --- surprisely this shock tactics work and from 2nd week of Nov, she has not sabotage MT's diet

Hence MT is able to shed 0.4kg to 7kg now..yippee

MT jia yu cos you are going to be my pal for many more years to come soo please be healthy for my sake okie....

Maid's leave from 27 Nov - 6 Dec 09

MeiMei, MiTao, Mocca, Olive, Patchy n Brownie, Milo n Coco, Hazel, Lovely and Lotus, Skippy and Bazhang, Happy, Zhai Zhai and Xiao Bao would be without maid to take care of their need for the duration...

Me would be working and coming home to take care of family...the babes would nid to eat lesser so that there is less wastes to clear for the 10 days...

My pets dun nid me ...sob

I was away at BKK for vacation from 11-14 Nov 09..missed my pets esp my MM and MT dearly and called back nightly...

MM was up to her monkey stints as it was rainy season -- she kept lifting the handset -- maybe trying to call me long distance...lol

But overall they managed well--- too well in fact without me -- so much so that both gals put on weight as my mom gleefully remarked = MM, the picky eater ate her BARF quickly n effortlessly every morning and she was agreeable to another fed in the evening....evidence of their contentment = both gained 0.2 kg by the time of my return....

MM now 6.4 from 6.15kg while MT was 7.4 from 7.2 kg last week

MeiMei on 15 Nov 05 - pic taken when she was in my house for 9 months. At that time, I was still a novice in dog care - evidence seen in MeiMei's messy looks despite monthly grooming and her maintaining a puppy cut -situation not helped by fact that MeiMei was already an obstinate gal then - she grolwed and struggled during grooming and ran for cover when she saw the slicker brush...those were the days

MeiMei's pics in her first few days at my house on 25 Feb 05. She was so young, small, dark and sotong then. Have loved her on sight and since then the feeling has grown and intensified. Her every joy is my joy and her every whine tugs at my heart strings. Because of this bundle of mischief, I had not been on trip or anywhere overnight until 2008 - curfew imposed on me by her was 10.30pm must be home as she would ask my mom for me.

Did I mention before my piggies are also hay terminators beside being wheatminator.....well they devoured on average 1 kg of hay per week so 5 g of hay would be gone in a month so needless to say I desperately need to find places which offer me cheap hay...but then hor, fussy me and my pampered piggies -- we all cannot accept hay that are not green, tender and juicy ones....there would be a lot of rejects if the hay is too tough....

Just went to cart home 17.5kg of hay --- thanks goodness for my neighbour who is a cabbie and he drove me tp pick up hay, wait for me downstairs and sent me home all for $20...this huge bundle of hay means that no one hay shortage for the next 3 months or so....

My next order is 25 kg of hay....gosh how am i going to store them!!!!! Headache....
