Some Brats

Copied from my facebook's status.

how immature, stupid and narrow-minded kids nowadays can be!!

after i fed the puppy, like always she wanted to have some play time with me. she was just jumping, standing on her feet and wanted me to walk her. then came this one group of 5 kids. aged around 14-16. they said things to me. like 'anjing tu gigit boleh mati', 'wang atau nyawa'. i said la the puppy do no harm. when me and the puppy were walking, one of the kids, threw a mercun right between us (me and the puppy) it shocks the puppy. she ran away. so i came back to her, soothe her up and walk back to my car. while i was walking, the kids say things to me 'muka akak macam anjing', 'harap je pakai tudung'. i said to them learn more before saying things they don't know about. later they walked towards the puppy. i was seriously afraid they'll do harm to her, i walk near the puppy and just stood there. looking how stupid those kids were trying to make themselves looks even more stupid. they threw the mercun to me, but i know it won't hit me. well, if you learn basic science or physics, you can know how to estimate the thing you/someone throw will landed. they said 'aish main kasar pulak dia'. seriously i did nothing. i was just standing and looking at them. another boy, pull down his pants, showing his butt and tapping it. like saying kiss my ass. but, hello!! seriously you guys looks even more stupid than before. after throwing few mercun, did stupid acts, they leave. down the road, they were trying to do pranks to the passer by. they spread a piece of rope along the road, they split into two groups, one waiting on the left side and the rest on the other side. 


based on what i read. these kids having problem with their family. either they didn't get enough love, attention or been abused by the family members. that's why they try to hurt people and other creature to satisfy their needs. they cannot fight back with their family members. that's why they do to other human being/creatures. how come parents can let their 14-16 years old kids walking around doing nothing by themselves at 10.30 pm? aren't they worried? or they just don't care? i do worried and pity with kids living in dot dot dot places.

Feeding

Last Friday I went to my parents'. After we went to Ramadhan Bazaar, my mum wanted to buy something at the pekan. There were about 2 strays trying to mate. So I bother them a bit by giving the male kibbles. While the male cat eat the kibbles, I gave some to the female. She was frightening. Pitty her. Then came another stray, I gave him/her some. While my mum went to buy some stuff, I took the opportunity to feed the stray. Not many stray I saw that day compared to usual. This time I walked beside the market and I saw a little kitty waiting outside the building. She looks like 1 month I think. S/he was meowing. I only can feed her/him. But s/he didn't eat them. Few of the cats saw I was giving kibbles, so they came out from their hiding places and eat the kibbles. They were quite hungry I can say. But as for the number of stray at the market, I can say it is very little compared to how people will describe that there are too many cats at the market. Maybe they were sleeping. I don't know. Hopefully all of them are fine.

Who are they? They are adult female dog and puppy. Yayyy!! They have a name. Hopefully they like the name.

Ticks and Fleas

Last week on Thursday morning when I was feeding the puppy, I saw something on the adult female dog's back. I thought it was just some kibbles tuck on her fur or something stuck there. When I was about to remove it. Shockingly it were ticks. OMG!! I was totally shock. I don't know what to do. I was afraid that she might get tick fever. I never ever encounter a dog with ticks ever in my life. So I text my vet. She said if the eye looks good, she'll can go with tick collar first. 

So that afternoon after class, I bought a collar for her and also plastic cover to cover my car's back seat. I've set up everything. I tried to put the collar on her. She refuse. I tried to pick her up, she's too heavy for me. When I manage to put the collar and harness on her, she refuse to get inside the car. Stressful situation for me and her. She just don't want to get into the car. After few fail attempts, I gave up for that day. I don't want to stress her even more. Plus the vet will be closed for iftar soon. So I opened her collar and she ran happily without it. OK my bad. She's not used wearing a collar. Like my cats, they will try their best to remove the collar that I put on them.

Then I went to feed the puppy. The adult female dog followed me while wagging her tail. Seriously I was confused. Is she ok? I don't know. As long as she's happy. Later that night I did ask my friends in my volunteer group about this lady. One of them said to get a type of medicine from the vet and can be spray to the dog. Within few application, the ticks will fall off. Another one said that she can help me to carry the dog inside my car. Walawei!! Such a stubborn dog. Maybe she's just not use to get into the car I guess. I asked advise from my vet what can I do in the mean time. She said buy a Killtix or Frontline Spot On for her to prevent her from keep on scratching.

The next day, Friday. I went to Nilufar, a pet shop at Jalan Klang Lama to buy my cats litter sand. I asked them do they have Kiltix. They do. But Kiltix is in collar shape. No I don't want the dog to wear a collar. Cause someone new to that area might say that she is a lost dog or something. I also don't want to use Frontline because if ever Frontline been applied to a dog or a cat, the dog or cat shouldn't get her/his bath 2 days prior and 2 days after the medication been applied. Well, she's a stray dog. So she have high tendency to get wet. Thus the sales girl showed me a product named Biospotix, made from France. I've read somewhere about this Biospotix thing. It is a natural product, no chemical were added and it will not harm the animal nor human when get in contact with the liquid. So I decided to buy the spray bottle of 500ml. I paid that for RM76 after 5% discount. I went straight to my parents after that.


Kiltix. Varies in size


Frontline spot on for dogs.


Biospotix spray for dogs.

On Sunday I came back and I spray it onto her. She didn't like it. Maybe she thought I was trying to abuse her. No sayang, I was trying to treat you. I spray on the ticks and also on the place where there's a lot of fleas crawling. Seriously I saw may fleas crawling back and front of her body. She did walk a bit funny after I spray onto her. She don't want me to get near to her. So I just leave her and came back in the evening to see how she's doing. Everything went well. 

Yesterday, when I took a walk with her, she scratch less and less compared before I sprayed Biospotix onto her. I guess it did work. So I'm going to spray onto her again in the mean time before going to the vet.

She Wanted To Follow Me Back

Just now, I went to feed the two stray dogs. When the female adult dog heard the sound of my car's engine, she woke up from her sleep and greet me with her wagging tail. She wanted me to pat her like always. I placed the kibbles and went of to feed the puppies. It's late already so I need to hurry back home. When I saw the puppy, she was biting a paper bag. Maybe she's too hungry I guess. When I called her, she quickly run towards me and did his normal gila-gila act. So cute. I fed the puppy quite far from the place I usually fed him. Like 5-6 shop lots away but still in the same block. After I placed the kibbles, she was like running away. Ahaa~ The adult female dog were there, I think. I was correct! She want to spend more time with me. I'm so sorry I can't although I really want. The puppy and the adult female dog were surrounding my car. How la I can move the car. Thus I need to shush them. The adult female dog followed my car until the junction to the main road :'( But there was a motorcycle passing by so she went away. I pressed the gas as hard as I can to prevent the dog from following me.

Will meet you two lovelies in the morning ( hopefully ).

Tender Loving Care

These past few days, out neighbour's cat keep coming to our house. He has been coming to our house for the past 5 years. It just for the couples of days he came here almost everyday! He don't eat much when we offer him food. Just want to be cuddle, pat and manja-manja. Maybe he didn't get all of the intention he sohuld get from his owner. I don't know. But he seems really happy when we manja-manja him. He's a very handsome cat. He has not been neutered, thus there's like oil that was produced by his testicle ( if I'm not mistake ) thus making his tail full with oil on the skin. You can see by yourself from the pictures below. What makes me weird, all of my cats are not afraid of him. They don't even hiss.




Why?

Yesterday, when I fed the stray dog that I always fed nearby my house in PJ. The adult dog was walking with me to the place where puppy 'live'. Then I stumble on a piece of paper on the floor. Someone wrote 'Do not feed stray animals here!'. Then I looked up, the same thing was posted on another 3 columns; the column where I usually place the kibbles. I was shocked. But not really shock. Since I do have this feeling that this day will come. Cause not everyone love animals, especially strays. I do want to post things back like 'menjawab'. But I don't want the puppy be the victim. Sigh. Seriously I never ever put the kibbles for the puppy in front of the shop lot that is occupied. The 3 columns that I place the kibbles are in front of an empty shop lot. Pretty sad. I cried tho. Cause I was shocked, I don't know what will happen to the puppy. Next time I will place the kibbles few shop lots away. They placed the sign only at that 3 columns. Not at any other column. She's just a puppy. I cannot be like this. I must find a home for her. I need to find a home for her.

Run Baby Run!

I did a post regarding stray that I fed in Tanjong Malim before. Here's the link. Now I'm goin to share their photo. Well, I borrowed my mom's camera. I don't have one yet.

 
 I thought this was the cat that lost her kitten, but actually not. They look the same. See picture below.

This poor mummy cat. Someone took her kitten. Very beautiful cat


Ahh~ So blurr. But they were hiding at the back alley during the day. When I called them, one by one coming out from their hiding place.


I mix Friskies, Kis-kis and any other brand of kibble that I have. My cats are fussy. Instead of throwing them, I gave the kibbles to the strays.


 S/he was scared to come for food. But when I left the food, she quickly ran to eat


This cat was with the orange cat at the garbage area. S/he ran quickly to eat.


She will deliver anytime soon! Very big tummy she have.


The same mummy cat.

It's Meal Time For the Woof Woof!!

I've been feeding two stray dogs for quite some time now; a female puppy and a female adult dog. Both of them lived in two different block which located side by side near by my house. The adult dog is so friendly and so lovely. While the puppy, she was trying to play with me but then when I look at her and wanted to get to her, she will run.

Sometimes I fed them once, sometimes twice a day. It depends on my availability and also timing. If it's too late, I won't be giving them kibbles. Things will happen and I don't want anything to happen. I gave them once boiled chicken. Both of them finish it. The adult female dogs started to trust me and she let me pat her. Sometimes we run and walk together. Normally I will place the kibbles for the adult dog and later for puppy. The adult dog will walk with me to the place where the puppy 'live'. Later we'll walk back to her place.

That day when I fed the adult dog, an uncle tegur me. He was shocked when he saw me touching and 'sayang-sayang' the dog. I told him that a Muslim and a dog can touch each other only when both of them are dry. I didn't explain about sertu just to make it short. But actually I need to tell him. He said that the adult dog has been there for quite some time. One of the worker at the nearby book store also keep an eye on her. He also said that the dog has been adopted unofficially by the people there. The dog used to have puppies. But people took away all of her puppies, leaving her being alone there. 
 
Adult female dog, yet to be named.

Day by day the puppy getting used to my presence. When she saw me, she will looks a bit gila. Woofing here and there, trying to get me play with her. But seriously I don't know how to play with a dog. Need to learn more about that. What makes me worry about the puppy is that she love to walk here and there crossing the road and stuff. Seriously she made me worried. 

The puppy, yet to be named.
 
There was a time that I fed both of them boiled chicken breast. They love it!! The adult female dog is love to eat human food rather than eating kibbles. Well she already get used to it tho. I bought them something like bone that they can chew and eat. The puppy love it. But the adult female dog just lick it and leave it there. Few days after that, the bone went missing. 

Will update more about them.



Dentist Time

No, it's not about my kitty went to check their teeth. I accompanied Taufiq for his dental check up. Guess what I saw on the entrance. A mummy to be kitty was sleeping peacefully on the floor. It was quiet noisy plus people walking nearby. But she didn't care. She just sleep. After 2 hours, she still sleep there peacefully.

I want to feed her but I don't want to disturb her beautiful sleep. But I manage to fed two kitties. The first kitty I fed was at the restaurant nearby when we had our lunch. I gave him/her half of the fish that I ate since I can't finish it. S/he was so hungry. Pitty kitty. S/he was about one and a half month I think. Very small and very skinny. When we were about to pay, I saw his/her sibling ( maybe ) on the floor helplessly. Like s/he was about to die. I'm sorry kitty. After we went to the dentist and about to go back, I saw a kitty near our car and fed her with kibbles.


I want to help all the animals that I see. But there are things that restricted me to do. What I can do for now is feed them and pray the best for them. I can't foster any kitty for the time being due to my apartment's notice. Very sad.

Pet Carnavale Is Here!


Pet Carnavale is here everyone! Sadly I cannot go that day since I two event to attend on 14th of July. I bet there's many interesting things to do. You also can bring along you small furry kids here! Enjoy your time there!!

Feeding Strays

Last Monday I came back to my parents' place at Tanjong Malim, Perak. While Mama went to buy some food, I went to one road at the Pekan. The road where there's Watson and CIMB Bank. I went there to feed the strays. I fed the strays there twice. During the day and night time. There are a lot of stray there I can tell you. Either it's dog or cat. There's a lot!

I went there and took out the tupperware that I placed kibbles for cats and dogs. One by one stray came out from their hiding place. I even saw two kittens about one month old. Then there's this mother cat and her kitten. They looks like just been thrown by their owner cause they are so effing fluffy and cute!! There's many puppy, dog, cat and kitten that I fed that night. Some of them want to follow me back. Then there's this 'Russian Blue' cat relaxing in the middle of the road!! Luckily there were no car crossing that area at that time. I called him/her Russian Blue well technically some of the people here in Malaysia would sell/named any blue coloured short haired cat as Russian Blue. 

When I want to pick up Mama, there's a couple of dog doing something in the middle of the road. Funny tho. Both of their back were touching each other's. Never seen one before. So the car there need to take turn to use the other lane of the road. 

That was the story last Monday. So today I went to the same spot again, around 7 pm. Took out the kibbles and wondering around looking for strays. Not many were out just now. Well there's many people and cars everywhere. I;m sure they were hiding somewhere. But I manage to feed some of them that I saw. The cat which have kitten that I saw last Monday, weren't with her kitten. I hope someone took home the kitten and give lotsa TLC to him/her. *thinking positive* Then there's this one puppy, s/he wanted to follow me back. tehee~ 

Every new/existing stray that I feed have their own characteristics which I really enjoy seeing. They really made my day.

I Tried. Did You?

If anyone asking help from me regarding their pets, the stray they found or even anything about the animal, I did my best to help them. But somehow, maybe they don't like me, the animal become the victim. Or they just let me hanging like that wondering what happen to the animal.

Case 1

A friend of mine, told me that her friend's girlfriend want to put few kittens for adoption. So I asked my friend to tell her friend's girlfriend to email the picture and detail to me. She did send the pictures of the kittens without the description. I did ask for some description, but there's no reply. I asked my friend for her friend's girlfriend contact number so that I can help advertise the cat for potential adopter. She said she will tell her friend to tell his girlfriend to contact me. Up until now, there's no update about the kittens.

Case 2

A friend of mine ( A ) just adopt a kitten. A don't have much experience in having fully indoor cat. The kitten just vomit worm . I told him to bring the kitten to the vet asap. Cause I was afraid that there's too many worm inside the kitten stomach until s/he cannot absorb any nutrient from the food s/he eat. Another friend of mine ( B ) volunteer to send the kitten to the vet the next day. The next day, I called B whether I can follow them to the vet or not since our house ( mine and A's ) is not that far away. He said he'll inform me later. When I called him back, he said, they don't want to go to the vet any more. I called A, no answer.

Case 3

Someone posted on FB that his sister rescued two kittens and cannot foster them any more due to their parents didn't let them foster the kittens and their neighbour blackmail them to throw the kitten somewhere if the didn't take the kittens out by themselves. This guy ( C ), said that he will throw the kittens himself if he can't get any fosterer/adopter any time soon. He's willing to throw the kittens himself rather than his neighbour throw them somewhere. He already have the intention in the first place. I help him advertise the kittens for adoption. Few days later, he said that his neighbour already took the kittens away. Err I did wonder, how come his neighbour can reach the kittens? Isn't that considered as trespassing?

I do understand that I'm just a newbie in this world and don't have much experience compared to others. But, I was just trying to help. That's all.

Pet World 2012

So~ it has been 2 weeks since the event but I didn't post anything about it yet. Been doing things lately. To be short, I love the event so much. First, because I can get samples. Second, because the price is cheaper compare to normal price and also I can get even more sample when buying any stuff. Third, because I can meet the rest of the VoRT members.

Mickey Mouse's exhibition in front of Mid Valley Exhibition Centre ( MVEC ) 


On the first day, which is Friday the 15th. I came around lunch time. I was looking all around for KTAJ/SCRATCH's booth. While searching for the booth, I manage to grab few samples. When I saw our booth, I was like, err~ this small? I was expecting a bigger and proper booth since we'll be putting cats for adoption too during this event. We don't have any merchandise to sell yet since Kak Rina and Abg Fad will only be there after the Friday Prayer. But Kak Zetty did brought the banner to be signed. The banner was for us to bring to the court on the day the verdict of the Petknode pet 'hell' hotel will be out. I manage to meet many animal lovers. Many stories were shared. There were also some animals there brought by the their owners. Most of them were dogs and puppies. I need to go back early since I'm going to meet my cats at my parent's. But manage to buy litter sand and cat food at the event. My plan on Sunday was to come early in the morning to help them.


BEWARE! Catculla is here.


Looks like a mop. Very cute!

But suddenly I received a notification that I need to go to college on Sunday afternoon. After I settled everything at college I rushed to Mid Valley. It was so packed that I can't even move inside the hall. There were many SCRATHer's who came that day. It was a fun experience. The best part was the booth beside us, they have something like 'mascot'. They rescued a Siberian Husky. I love Siberian Husky so much like I want to take that dog home. A very beautiful dog indeed. Many cats have been adopted on Saturday and earlier that day.

I came home after we had our dinner after a very long day.
