STRAY

Stray? Straggle? Strategy?

(Hmm... Still thinking how to go with this..)
Let us just start with.....
STRAY  (strae)intr.v. strayed, stray·ing, strays
1.
    a. To move away from a group, deviate from the correct course, or go beyond established limits.
    b. To become lost.
2. To wander about without a destination or purpose; roam.
3. To follow a winding course; meander.
4. To deviate from a moral, proper, or right course; err.
5. To become diverted from a subject or train of thought; digress

When we thought bout strays, we often think of dogs, cats, SPCAs, etc. How they STRAGGLE in big cities? Feed on rubbish and take shelter under a tree. But the only thing I think of when I saw this

 is CRUELTY !!
 
This is the only tiny bits that is exposed. Behind bars, we don't know what happen. 
 
 
These people?
They might do it for their jobs?
Where's law?
I also don't know
Where's justice?
Long forgotten
 
I fully aware that that is their job. But to tell you, their STRATEGY to catch the dogs, SUCKS like banana. They should think of a better way which benefits both parties and this is clearly not the method.

For they, who can't speak for themselves, can only stare, hopping for a justice
 
It feels like the dog there, in the picture, is trying to tell us something. LOOK! His eyes. Red. Pierce into your soul. 
 
 
 And this?
Is left to be rotten there
How hard is it to bury a dog?
Answer me!
 
To add everything up, here's a video that I'll post but I shall not press the button 'play'. 
 
Say whatever you want.
I'm not brave to see what they did to the dogs
 
An article of the news. Well written. Touche. Animal Handlers Cruelty
 
As far as I recalled, few years back, there's a girl that was sued for bitten up kittens. You might think she was caught to jail or something. Nahh.. She was only required to pay fine of RM 500 or something. Just like that. And this people, they are obviously torturing the animals. In public! And why is there no action taken? Becoz they were instructed? 
 
The best prove is from seeing. Seeing is believing. So see for yourself and judge.
 
And if there's a kind person here, please sign this petition. Thanks for the effort to click and type in few things to make a big difference in the lives of the strays.

Headache

I still think why I so 'ke-poh' go let the dogs out. At first, I just want to let all the dog out so they can finally have a good run in the evening. My dogs are let out only at night at our backyard except Xiao Ai which we put him at the car porch. Xiao Ai is left freely to roam the entire house except upstairs and bedrooms.

I figured since tomorrow Kiko is going for her spaying early in the morning, so I better let her out running and take in all the positive energy. Everything turns out well at the first 10 minutes. Chaos started when Jacky, an old Labrador start to push the temporary asbestos that is used to close space for the back door to the beach. Soon then, Lucky, a 7 y/o Golden Retriever followed. I push him away from the asbestos using my feet when suddenly Tiger started to attack him.

I was terrified thou it happen numerous of time already. Quickly, my maid came to help me and soon followed by my mother who was currently watching her Taiwanese drama at that time. Pulling them both apart and splashing water no longer works. Things got pretty bad when Tiger started to bite the maid that was trying to pull them apart at that time.

Lucky is badly injured right now, mostly at the ear area. I don't know why Tiger keep attacking the ear part. Can't seem to have an answer right now. Tiger, on the other hand has no injury at all. I'm starting to worry as the maid and Xiao Ai were bitten in the process.

Lucky's body are all purple due to the spraying
 
It happens few times already and I think I know why. They kinda fighting for my attention. Before this, I remember I was patting Tiger when Lucky started to make growling sound. Seconds later, Tiger's teeth is at Lucky's throat.

It all started to be this violent when Kiko is in her heat last month. Back then, my maid went back her home town so I'm in charge of the feeding. It always happen when Lucky is trying to smell Kiko's butt. Stupid boy! What is there to smell at someone butt? They often fight at night. Since it's blurr and I check there's no injury, I don't bother to look any further. That is where everything goes wrong. Lucky started to have maggots. After almost 3 weeks of continuous mediation, he finally recover. So I take extra precaution after that.

Back to today, Mum started saying that Tiger is out of control and I should think of a way to settle it as we do not want him to kill people in future. It may happen right? The other option I was left with is EUTHANASIA! And there's no way I would kill him.

I meant thou I'm not as close to Tiger as I am with Xiao Ai but I still love him dearly. Xiao Ai, Kiko and Tiger are like my child. I was the one that bring them to the family and be with them even thou a while for Tiger and Kiko case. Still, I love them. I'm like their mummy.

When Tiger first came.
Such a cutie.
 
What should I do now?? At this point, Mum is really afraid that Tiger would kill people one day based on how he react today. It would be sad to euthanatize him. He's only one plus not an old sick dog. Hey, I'm not saying you should euthanatize old, sick dog. Make that clear! I'm just saying that he's fit and healthy so why should I kill a healthy dog.

Maybe I should Google out to see if others have the same problem and if it has any solution to this kind of situation. Euthanasia would be the very very last option. I still love him and want to have him with me for many many more years to come. As for now, the only solution I can think of is to have him spayed to reduce him possessiveness. As for how it works on his hormone and behavior later on, I'm not sure.

Is the name 'Tiger' that bring out all the possessiveness?
 
Any of dog owners here that have the similar problem? Share some thoughts with me please?

Thanks for hearing this fat girl complaining her day! =(

The cute,fluffy and adroable lil' creatures

Besides dogs, there's also a spot in my heart dedicated to RABBITS! Yup. The cute fluffy lil' creatures! God really put all his effort and time in creating this adorable creatures.

It started few years back when I was around 14 years old during December school holidays! I had wanted a pet rabbit since small. Being the pampered child among all, of course my uncles bought me rabbits a few times. But then it was always either the rabbit runs away or get bitten by our dog.

So it was that month when my sister said her friend's uncle rear rabbits and the rabbits gave birth a lot. So I was asking whether can her friend give us a pair? Joy came when my sister's friend agreed!

There's always bad news after good news. Le Mum doesn't not allow us to have the rabbits. The biggest myths behinds rabbits is their poop and urine smell. Being the lil' devil, I tried to persuade Mum in every way I can. I'm the master of PERSUASION! Finally Mum agreed!

I can still remember clearly that it was almost night when we arrived my sister friend's house. She approached us with a shoe box. Can you imagine? In the lil shoe box, there's two cute fluffy lil' rabbits in there. My heart melts! I guess this is what they called as "Love at First Sight".

This is one of the pair, named Angelina. Of course with Anglina, we had Brad but then it seems that I don't have a picture of Brad as Brad only lives with us a few days before escaping. When we found Brad, he can barely survive the night due to the rain!
 
We then went back to my sister's friend and get another rabbit for Angelina which is then named Joe. We kinda avoid to use the same name twice as each rabbit bring different memories back!
 
Hi, Joe!
 
After that, the passion for rabbit expand. Over the past 5 years, there had been good and bad memories in between with each rabbit come and go. One thing for sure is that, each left memories in me. I do learn a lot from them. Love is universal!
 
This is just some of it
 
There's just lots of rabbits over the years. One of the best memories is with Ah Boon. The name "Ah Boon" actually comes from a friend who have two toys that are named "Ah Boon & Ah Beng". So it kinda match. Ah Beng would be the one on the on the upper left from the picture above.
 
Here's Ah Boon
 
He's a very active bunny. He often sneaked out of his cage and went to the kitchen begging for carrots. It's a loss for us here when he's dead due to my careless for not locking the garden cage properly. Dogs sneaked in at night and 3 lives gone. For his cheerfulness, I shall remember him forever....
 
A lop called Ah Lian
 
 
Picture taken a few days after we have her
 
She's my first lop ear bunny, bought at a pet shop with RM 60. Her cuteness is often mistaken for her to be as cute as a puppy. She left us due to mites. That is a lesson learnt to never delay a vet visit.
 
 
Lily is her name!
 
 
 

Last picture of her
 
This was taken few days before we loss her due to flood last December after a year with her. Miss her terribly.
 
 There's always rainbow after rain. Here's all my grandchildren by Ah Beng, the best mommy!
 
 
 

 
 
My very first of survival litter
 
 
 
 


The smallest in this second litter
 
 
There's always a mischievous one
 
 
A New Year bunnies
 
 
Last litter in the year 2012- December
 
The last litter for now.
 
There's four in the litter. Unfortunately, we lost 2 due to the haze and heat earlier this year. So we were only left with two. However, I only have this one with me. One given away. ='(
 
I would honestly say that many object this hobby of mine and one of the most objection comes from Mum herself. As we go on, she finally learnt to accept and love them as well. Believe it or not, my first litters ( does not survive) was noticed by Mum herself.
 
Deep down, I want to thanked every one of them for being there in my life!

It's squeaky clean !!

I've used to have 6 bunnies at home but recently I had to give them all away as I'm studying abroad and do not have much time for them.

I kept all the bunnies in separate cages. One bunny in one cages. As bunnies poop and urine, it stains the plastic board beneath the cage.

In the past, I find it hard enough to scrub the stain off and it frustrates me. But then there's a friend sharing his magic on the internet and recently I decided to test it.

All you need is a very dirty plastic board, a bottle of vinegar and a washing dish scrub. Just pour a little amount of the vinegar on the board and start scrubbing. After a while, you'll notice that the magic works and the stain is removed. Rinse the board with water and there you go, a brand new sparkling plastic board!

 
Tadaa!!
 
It's that easy!!
