rainy season is killing Mimi (and my floors)
The rains started properly at the end of May and since then our condo on Rama 9 smells like a wet towel every single morning. Mimi is ten now and her legs are not what they were. On the tiles she slides like she is on ice, and last week she fell halfway down the corridor and just lay there looking at me.
I got her a non slip mat for the kitchen and two for the bedroom, the cheap ones from the 7-Eleven shopping area are useless, I bought better ones on Lazada. The juristic office sent a notice about mold in the lift lobby, so the whole building is damp. Mimi keeps licking her paws after walks because of the puddles, and her ears always smell a bit sour in the mornings.
The vet said keep her dry after walks and check the paws for cuts, and wipe her belly with a towel. She is not a fan of towels. We do a little ritual now: walk, sit on the mat by the door, towel, treat, done. It takes ten minutes and she behaves better than most people.
I moved from Berlin two years ago and I thought I knew about grey weather. This is different. The heat in the afternoon makes everything sticky and then it rains for twenty minutes and it is cool, and then it is hot again. Mimi sleeps in the aircon at least fourteen hours a day.
I am trying to be patient. She gets a lot of love and a lot of cuddles, and I keep thinking about how many rainy seasons she has got left.

Which part of Rama 9? I am near Huai Khwang and my floor is the same, tile gets slippery. Did the non-slip mat help?
