New kitty in the house

Lazy Saturdays are for taking top view photos of Nuggie

We were still having our photo session when my mom walked in with a very precious package

"Who's that?"  "Is that meowing I hear?"

"I want to see!"

It's a tiny white fur ball!  We still haven't named him :)  Hopefully, white kitty and Nugget will get along well.

Don't worry Nuggie pie!  You'll always be my big baby :)

Baguio cats

I missed Nugget so much during our weekend in Baguio that I spent a lot of time looking for cats.  Well actually I am ALWAYS on the look out for cats!  Yes, I know... I'm totally cat crazy.  Anyway, here are a few photos of the cuties I spotted up north.

White kitty busy sneaking around Tam-Awan Village

Found 2 of his furry friends nearby.  They all look like strays but I think some folks take time to feed them since I saw food bowls under the hut :)

This friendly tortoiseshell kitty was enjoying the cool air at Minesview park

So many cute cats but I'm glad to be home to this dusty old cat!

Binondo Cats

I noticed that a lot of shops in Binondo and Divisoria keep cats as pets (yes, pets and NOT for siopao!) Sometimes I would go inside the store to ask about the cat and not the merchandise :) I particularly love this school supplies store because they have the biggest cat I have ever seen!

Anyway, here are some cat pics from my trip to Binondo a few weeks back.

Hardware cat guarding his spot

He barely moved when a few customers went inside. So funny!

Whoops! Black cat is busy. No time to stop and pose for a pic.

This man owns a big orange cat that looks like my Nugget!

I noticed that he has a chipped ear. The vendor said that it a mark (from the veterinarian) that means that the cat is already neutered. Interesting. (UPDATE from my friend who works in a shelter: "tipping an ear is the universal sign of a cat being fixed. This way, if a person is trapping to spay or neuter a cat, they can let the ear tipped ones go and only bring in the full eared ones to the vet. The tip is cut off by using a hemostat and a surgical blade while they are still under anesthetic. It heals fast and the ear barely bleeds." Thanks, Cindy!)

We saw three cats in Po-Heng Lumpia House. This one just watched me from afar.

While the other two were super friendly! This pale orange one is my favorite because she kept following me. I noticed that her right ear was also chipped.

and this cat's ear too! Good to know that they are neutering outdoor cats there.
