Fudge has been a handful of late and just extremely relentless. On top of being vocal, she can’t seem to keep her paws to herself. She entertains herself a lot and will somehow get up to some mischiefs that last throughout the night! She climbs everywhere and anywhere her claws will take her. She doesn’t seem to tire, but I feel exhausted just by looking at her runnning and climbing around the house like flashes of lightning. It gets worse when she’s joined by the other 2 cats whom she’ll gleefully disturb. Andy doesn’t take her nonsense too kindly and gets aggresive. She hisses and spit with agitation and sheer hatred with daggers in her eyes. If looks could kill.
Recently, she’s been caught red handed climbing up the screen doors and going up as high as possible while meowing as loud as possible. Spurts of water sprayed on her seems to work well. The 4th picture is Fudge acting sorry right after getting a spray, a flick on her forehead and a scolding.
Fudge really does drive the entire household crazy with her ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder). She gets scolded all the time, but you just can’t get angry with a cat for too long. Especially not with Fudge since she seems to know that she can tug at your heart-strings by snuggling up with you and settle on your lap moments after being scolded.

Tosay, tosai, dosa, dosai, thosai, dhosa…? There seems to be many variation of its spelling, although I’m more familiar with “tosay”.
Had a home-delivery tosay recently which
costed us 350 baht (SGD 15) for a pathetic plain one and one with chicken masala. Can’t believe they are so expensive here. Almost not worth it I’d say, especially when the taste is nothing to shout about.
One of the best tasting ones I’ve had was strangely in Laos more than 2 years back. The Masala Tosay there was just amazing – in fact Indian food in Laos were actually pretty good and not too expensive either. Which reminds me of the frequent after-school Tosays meal I used to relish with Anakinsoon and a few other friends at one of the small Indian stalls along Bugis street. It was one of the best around then and costed us like 50 cents (..?). Well…that was at least 12 years ago, but it was one of my fondest memory of Tosays! Some things you just don’t forget.
