Update: Maomao (or Nana)

So very sorry. I have been so extraordinary busy the moment I came back from Copenhagen. Phew. Now that a major business event is over, I have a little more breathing moments.

Let's start with Maomao or more affectionately known as Nana these days.

Since her discharge from the vet (where she stayed for a good 1 month) on 22 Oct (the same day I departed Singapore), she has been adjusting to her "old self" gradually. Initially, she was so frightened. She dared not emerge from the carrier and when she did, she rushed upstairs and defecate on the 4th floor (unusual of her to do so, she usually defecate on the grasses). No amount of coaxing would make her come down. When we tried to carry her downastairs, she ran up and hid behind the pipe - this happened about 4 times before she decided to seek solace inside the deep drains. We waited for an hour but she stubbornly refused to come out. I had to leave first as I had a flight to catch. Determined Uncle Y waited longer, I think was about 3 hours and to no avail. We even enlisted the help of M, my kindly malay neighbour who love her as much as we do.

Am happy to inform that as at to-date, Maomao is back to normal as the Queen of my area. FYI, Tubbs is the king. Hehe. They are a good-looking couple.
