Brushes and Tangles
Filed Under Dear Diary | Leave a Comment
These days, Mummy gets really aggressive while brushing me. By aggressive I mean she pulls and pulls and pulls (I don’t mean to paint a bad picture of Mummy but the whole pulling thing is bad!) until the brush gets through my hair. To make things worse, the brushing process now takes longer than ever.

Bed Issues
Filed Under Dear Diary | Leave a Comment
Have you seen those adorable little beds made especially for furries? They are (physically) approximately ten times smaller than a non furry’s bed but the price, not ten times less. In fact, you will be surprised to know that they can sometimes cost even more than a non furry’s bed.
When Mummy wanted to buy me […]

Post Supper Walk
Filed Under Dear Diary | Leave a Comment
Most of you should know that Grandpa has his supper at 9.50pm each night. If you do not, it is either because you have not been paying attention to my sweet ramblings or you do not frequent my sweet ramblings often enough. They are both equally bad.
Anyway, Grandpa normally finishes his supper at 10.10pm and […]

Today is the day when the Chinese community will come together in celebration of the final day of the Chinese New Year, also known as Chap Goh Meh. It is actually a Hokkien (which is a Chinese dialect) word which simply carries the meaning “the fifteenth night” of the Chinese New Year.
Chap Goh Meh is […]

Happy Valentine’s Day to all furries and non furries!
Mummy told me that Valentine’s Day is a day of love and well, scam. It is a day of love because on this very day, 14 February, people (couples, families, friends) celebrate their love for one another. It is a day of scam because everything (flowers, gifts, […]

Eating Season
Filed Under Dear Diary | Leave a Comment
After going through six whole days (which is equivalent to almost one week) of Chinese New Year, I have finally arrived at a conclusion. Chinese New Year is the super peak eating season for all Chinese non furries.
Ever since the first day of Chinese New Year, everyone in my forever home feasted like there was […]

My Folks’ Tale
Filed Under Dear Diary | Leave a Comment
As Mummy and I were enjoying the last piece of her birthday cake, she related a story to me about Papa and herself from many birthdays ago. Initially, I was more interested in the cake but as the story progressed, I thought it sounded rather interesting. Of course, if I had to choose, the cake […]

I Am One

The day has finally arrived, the 7 January 2008 – my birthday! I turn one today and I have been waiting for this day like forever, probably since the last half a year. Theoretically, this should not be the most anticipated day of my life. It should be Mummy’s birthday that I most look forward […]

Today is my dearest Mummy’s birthday so here I would like to take the opportunity to wish her a very happy birthday and may she have many more furry happy years to come. I tried to ask Mummy how old she turned but all she kept saying was, “Yes Joo Joo dear, how may I […]
