Can you see Minna?

Minna: I want to play.
Minna: Let's play hide and seek.

Minna: No one can find me here, I can't even see myself.

Neko chigura

Minna and I watched Japanese TV show PochiTama last May and wrote about the Japanese cat house, it is called neko chigura and Modern Cat had a post about it several weeks ago (Neko Chigura: Traditional Japanese Cat Bed). According to Modern Cat, a similar pet basket is available from Design Within Reach (Woven Pet Basket Available in the US).

Afternoon nap

I saw Minna was sleeping with her eyes open when I got home yesterday.

How we communicate...

Minna: It's feeding time.
Minna: Keep hand-feeding me when I lift my paw.

Minna: You can stop when I look the other way.

Minna is doing fine

I had been taking a break updating this blog because I wanted to think of something new to write about, such as how Minna and I communicate...
Anyway, Minna just had a surgery on Tuesday at SPCA Hong Kong, the tip of her dewclaw was infected again (I forgot to ask Dr. West why she got infected in the first place, I was way too stressed out). The picture was taken in the afternoon after the surgery, she looked very crankly because I was too slow hand feeding her. Too much food or water right after surgery might induce vomiting. The bandage will be removed two days after the surgery, she needs to wear buster collar & take antibotics for a week, and appointment is already scheduled on the 29th to remove stitches.
