One people one nation hmmm not true for cats

Yesterday was the day where every Singaporean come together as one to celebrate our Nation's 43rd birthday. It is also the day to remind ourselves to stay united as one nation irregardless of race, language or religious. So much for harmony for humankind.. too bad the cats weren't feeling so patriotic.

I went to my mum's house to watch the NDP on television with them. Guess who I saw?

Yup its Pingpong!! He was sitting in the middle of the lift landing as usual. I went over to give him a good head rub then he walked over to the front of the lift and patiently wait for it like the rest. The rest of the crowd who were also waiting for the lift were amused by his action and a kid begin to giggle saying "cat take lift".
True enough, the lift came and Pingpong was the 1st to walked in and stood by one corner in a cat-porcelain position. Too bad there was too many people in the lift and I couldn't take a picture but it was so cute.

The lift landed on my floor and to my delight, Pingpong walked out of the lift with me!!

Pingpong walked over to a plastic bag in the corner of the lift landing and make himself comfortable...
Again, I sneaked some of Ah sky's dry food for Pingpong to eat. Ah sky was sleeping... I was careful not to make any sound as I scooped the biscuit out onto a tissue all the time praying ah sky won't be awake by the scent of it... I guess yesterday's weather was simply too good for sleeping
Biscuit gone in a flash.. Hey did u see that clipped ear.. Pingpong's been sterilized!
A good body clean up after a hearty meal..

Cheers to Mr Lim, squatting patiently with the umbrella waiting for me and rewarded with a friendly snuggle from Pingpong.
Oh goody I finally captured a shot of Pingpong's stunning blue eyes!! Isn't he handsome...
Satisfied seeing him and capturing a front view of him, Mr Lim and I head over my mum's house to watch the NDP. A while later, my father got all excited and carried Ah Sky to the front gate... To my surprise, Pingpong was walking past our common corridor...
Sensing a stranger of its kind, Ah sky leaped up onto the front gate with his front paw in a bid to see. Standing by his side is my father stroking Ah Sky's head and telling him "see friend friend ah"

Ping pong stood still with blue eyes watching Ah sky intensely

And they just stood there frozen in time just watching one another...

Then they start having a growling competition.

Fearing that they would start to fight, I decided to carry Ah sky away while my father start to shoo Pingpong away..

But Ping pong seems to have other idea. Not at all bothered by the hostility shown by Ah sky. He choose to settle himself comfortably underneath our flowerpots.

Then Ah sky came over and start the staring business again...


After some shooing, Ping pong finally retaliated and sit further away from our house

While Ah sky sit on his comfy couch and looked at the door cautiously...

The scaredy cats

Last saturday, two two-legged strangers came over our house in the morning to do air-con maintainance. And the little rascals suddenly vanished. I called out for them name to no avail (nah.. doesn't work most of the time!) I went to the kitchen and found Orange without much effort...
He was hiding under the metal rack in the kitchen. Actually come to think of it. That was one of first spot he hid when he came into the household the very first time.
Suddenly our Oragne don't look so confident and aloof anymore. He looks at me wearily refusing to come out from his "safe" spot.
Next, I start looking for Lala.. now that can be quite tricky as there's quite a few places she can squeeze herself into.. given her slender figure...
Believe me.. She used to be able to squeeze herself into this tiny slot between the fridge and the cabinet... Well, there was of course in the past.. nowadays she has since abandon this hiding spot as it's been getting a bit of challange... if you know what i mean..
I even looked underneath the sofa, in the wardrobe, even the toilet and I still can't find her...
Then Mr Lim suggested to checked the washing machine... She can't have open up the lid and hid herself in right?
Then again, anything is possible right? There she is hiding not inside the washing machine but somehow she has found a new hiding spot... the space behind the washing machine. haha look at the things that had been dropped there and forgotten... now I know where are my scoops keke..
When the strangers are gone, Orange then cautiously crawled out from his hiding spot and stooped low staring towards the living room...

Are you sure they're gone?

Better check it for myself...

hmmm... can't seems to detect anything threatening.. hehe I bet im better at hiding myself than orange.. so not orginial to hiding oneself under the kitchen rack...
