good dogs, bad owners
Mood:  irritated

there's no such thing as 'BAD' dogs...there's only BAD owners! why are the innocent ones that are being punished?
any domestic pets can be dangerous, due to irresponsible ownership, or improper training. domestic pets are like kids: they are always over-excited, playful, and sometimes, very noisy. all they want is to have fun. they don't have much social etiquette, because kids' & animals' I.Q/ E.Q aren't as developed yet. don't measure domestic pets with your yardstick. pets are family. please don't assume that dogs are just animals, tho' i know some people may not comprehend it. if our family pet is lost, we grieve like our child is lost too. it's the same pain.
not ALL strays attack people or other animals.
i've seen more strays being victims of physical abuse. the cats were being splashed with boiling water by adults; kids using bamboo poles to whack bigger dogs (and their parents were laughing approvingly); dogs & cats/ kittens being kicked in the stomach by human beings; giving pigeons/ black birds with poison feeds... AND THESE PEOPLE GOT AWAY WITH IT. IS IT FAIR?
the SPCA has put in alot of effort for so many years to educate the public. i hope we will not stay ignorant any longer. its the deed, not the breed!
most of the dogs that were euthanized hasn't done any wrongs.

hmmm...it's wierd...that puppy suddenly surfaces again! gosh, it's scary....you know, no identity, no response, no feeling....eeeks, and she bought a friend along...
but i swear i didn't hurt her before. she was transpassing into my territory, and it's my prerogative to defend my house...
thankfully, mummy's @ home & i whine for help...er...i mean, ask for help...

and just as suddenly she appears, she suddenly disappears.... freaky!

mummy is having a sore throat, flu & is down with a fever. granny went out with my grand-aunt, for some shopping spree. grand-dad? he's still sitting there in his corner, smoking his pipe...uncle jeff & aunt ruth are still @ work in their factory. uncle james went to the central library.
so the only person left is my buddy to clean up after me....*giggle*

insurance
Mood:  cool
Topic: lazy thoughts
it's actually nothing new about pet insurance. but mummy says that with the increasing veterinarian costs & medical costs in singapore, she recently bought medical policies for everybody in the family...*scratch head*
so, mummy just simply loves me or she thinks i'm her liability? *frowning in thoughts* hmmmmm....
anyway, with immediately effect of my veterinarian pet insurance, i figure i'll seeing dr. soh VERY often *huff* mummy has already been booking appointments for my scaling, annual check-up, blood/ urine tests , claiming my heartworm medication, blah blah blah....
my,oh,my....

on nov. 22, 2005, sam, the thrice undefeated winner of the world's 'ugliest dog' , was euthanized as his heart is failing. he was 14.

as far as i'm concerned, he's not ugly. he is so lucky to have a owner who loves him, despite his failing health.
bye, sam!

ouch! mummy's words really hurts...
when i asked for some treats, mummy blamed the H5N1 avian flu for the lack of stocks in the pet stores; as if it's not disappointing enough, she further elaborate about my weight issues! *huff*

they don't call this cone: elizabethan collar, for nothing!
Mood:  irritated
Topic: lazy thoughts
*huff* ever since i shaved my fur few days ago, i seem to have rashes & i keep scratching myself....
to reduce inflammation, mummy made me wear this wierd cone around my neck, so that she can apply medication on my skin...
i remember i used to wear it when i had a minor operation (spaying procedures)....i don't exactly know what was that but i remembered being angry with mummy for a week!
*roll eyes* how 16th century can i get?!!! exactly, do i look like a tudor queen, or a court jester?

irresponsible pet owners...
Mood:  blue
Topic: lazy thoughts
SINGAPORE :the Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority plans to extend micro-chipping to all newly licensed dogs, including locally bred ones; this measure is already in place for imported dogs (i'm micro-chipped!). With this, the AVA hopes to deter pet abandonment as irresponsible owners can then be traced and enforcement action taken against them.
Each year, some 6,000 dogs and 12,000 cats have to be put to sleep *sob sob*

as far as i know, there are many good-hearted indidviduals who tried to adopt/ feed/ spayed as many stray cats & dogs as possible, with their own money. however, their resources are often limited, and sometimes, unlawful (HDB apartments are allowed only 1 dog of a toy breed or its cross), since 80% of singaporeans stayed in 'pigeon holes' (apartment blocks). and, most strays are not of the 'toy' category.
if only, we can set up a no- kill shelter!

i auditioned for '12th night' earlier in the afternoon today.
i had been memorizing my lines for the past few days, and i thought i will not fumbled through the famous literature play... *sigh* how wrong i was!
i was so nervous prior to the audition, that i started to have panic attack as soon as i started with the 1st few lines!
i felt so silly as i was speechless, and i stared blankly @ the crowd....my face was so red with embarrassment.
i guess, if i ever wanted to act, i'll act as a dumb blonde. i'm throwing away all my shakepeare text books later...i feel so stupid....
