Introducing Spotty

 

As promised, this is my rescued dog, Spotty! He has unique characters which I still have to discover every day. He loves eating fish compare to chicken. So I can describe him as a pescatarian. 

A pescatarian is someone who doesn't eat meat but does eat fish. The term pescatarian was coined in the early 1990s and is a combination of the Italian word for fish, “pesce,” and the word “vegetarian.” Sometimes it's spelt “pescetarian,” but this means the same thing.

He was rescued from a coffee shop. According to the coffee shop owner and people around the area, he was abandoned by its previous owner. The owner moved from their rented house at the housing behind the coffee shop. Since then, he roaming around the area to get shelter and food. 

Am I happy having him around? Well, I admit it was a challenge to keep him stay put for the first two weeks. The insecurity and trauma from being abandon are still with him. He requires special attention and affection from me which I failed to do so sometime due to my work. 

This is our fourth months together and I can see he is now a happy dog. He knows how to play but for sure he is one obedient dog. 

Spotty the Stray Dog

In mid-August, I adopted a dog from the Kopitiam. Or I should say, we rescued him from a Kopitiam? With help from one of the S.O.S Kuching, we managed to lure him into the cage and bring him straight to the vet clinic at Jalan Tabuan. He is still a puppy almost a year old. It took me about two weeks to get him familiar with me. I will visit him at the Kopitiam after work trying to feed him and pat him. The amazing thing is he connects with me straight away. When he starts to show submissive behaviour at the end of the second week, my friend decides to try to catch him. So, our rescue was successful. 

Honestly, my experience since the day he enters my house is full of drama. It still going on until today. He is a drama king! I create an Instagram profile for him so that I can share his development. If you are interested to know how my furry buddy looks like, visit his IG @stray_story.

I will share more of his story in future post.

New Member in The House

Still remember that i have a little furry friend i name her JOY before? I did share some stories about her in this blog. When i was away for 18 days training in Japan, my friend took care of her and now JOY is at her new home in Tenom. She live her life very well there. I still did not find a time to pick her up from my friend's house. Since she is doing very well and now begin to live in the community, i think she is doing great because she is so lonely when we are in Sipitang.

Okay, now i am moving to Kota Marudu, a new place for me. So i need a companion. About one week ago, i saw a pregnant cat at the coffee shop. A stray cat. I told her if she gave birth i will take care of it's kitten. So, five days ago, she deliver her youngs under the stairs inside a box. Lucky that a few shop owners, gave her some food to survive. Two days ago, i took her home.

#Day 1: Arrive home at 8.30pm. She is so protective to the youngs.
I name her ANGEL. With hope that she can be the Guardian Angel for her youngs
and also our home. Welcome to your new home ANGEL.

#Day 2: She aware that now she is at the new place. Only came out from
the box. 

#Day 2: The kitten looks healthy. Still not open the eyes.. Hey! it's just
about 3 or 5 days. Not even a week. Got two names from my BFF,
CHARM & HYENA but i still don't know which one male and which
one female.

It's Palm Sunday!

New in A Family

The title sounds interesting right? I get two new born kittens on 7th of September, morning. But today, one of it died. My little hairy friend, Joy deliver two babies that morning. I am super excited that morning when i woke up but when i saw the babies, i am a little bit worried about one of the kitten. Why? Because the hands and feet seems to be not normal. It looks like cripple babies. Yai! I am curious a little bit why this happen? Hmmmph... i am not sure though!

Joy, the morning she deliver her babies (2). 

She did not know how to feed her babies. Pity with my cat. I thought it is a natural things for a mother to nurture her babies but seems to be i am wrong. This little friend don't know how to feed its own babies.

On the 8th Afternoon, the little one seems to be restless and waiting for its time..

One of the baby born with some abnormalities. Both hands and legs is not strong and looks like it is cripple. It is a female (i think so). Only feed once in the evening of 7th.

She was dead when i get back from work today. 

I didn't given them any name yet. But this little one already left me. But if she survive with this condition, she will not living well. So, it is also a good thing she died. Only hoping for another one to survive.

Only this one left with mommy. 

I am still not checking if this one is female or male. Joy still need me to help her feeding her baby. Odoi... how to left her alone at home this weekend? I need to go for some event tomorrow til Sunday. I am worried now.

Anyway, i hope she will survive with her baby. Will give this lil one names if she survive till Monday. Finger cross!

Update on 14th Sept 2011:
Both of my lil kittens dead already. Joy, the mum did not know how to take care of its own youngs. So, both dead by now. Pity lil kittens.

Joy - Kucing Kecilku Keguguran

Sebenarnya rasa macam tak nak buat entri ni tapi tetap juga rasa nak buat sikit perkongsian pengalaman. Dua hari yang lalu iaitu pada hari Selasa, semasa balik dari kerja saya nampak si Joy macam ada restless sikit. Dia macam tak selesa. I hold her and trying to comfort her. Then, i realize that there is something with her stomach. Joy is still very small in size, she only grow a little bit from the day that i took her home. I am very curious with her stomach so, i did try to figure it out and i feel a little bit movement in her stomach. I didn't push or squeeze her stomach just a gentle touch and i feel the movements. With that i thought she had a baby inside her stomach and i was guessing it will be three of them. Only that Tuesday night my friend and i agreed that she had a baby. We did not notice it because she is still so small and the stomach didn't show at all. It is just because when i touch her stomach, i feel something hard. Even i thought she infected by worms again. I was wrong, she is pregnant.

Only about half and hour later, my friend call me from the living room and told me something is wrong with my Joy. She looks like wanted to delivered. She really makes us confused because, i observed my cat (when i was a child, i did saw my cat deliver it's young) deliver but not with the position and action that Joy shows. That night was really horrible and bad experienced for us because we keep an eye on Joy finishing her delivery session for all three of her fetuses. It is complete with every features, the only thing is not yet there is the fur and some other but i can not look at it for long because it was really sad moments for me. All three is still alive but still they are not surviving because it is actually not the time yet. Joy was not ready for the baby or she was sick/ fever. It's only me that not aware of her condition.

After the miscarriage she seems to be fine. No bleeding and she just recover from the incident. She is fine now, she eat well and back to normal. The only thing that i realize today is that, Joy is sharing her male with Muna, the cat next door. Only today i have seen Muna face to face again and be able to hold her for a while. And you know what? Muna is also pregnant now. Muna having a very big stomach and it really obvious if compared to my little Joy. Joy can not face Muna, and same goes to Muna. Both of them is very territorial now. They are no longer friends, they are enemy because actually both of them were pregnant. It is only that my Joy miscarriage two days ago. Pity for my little hairy friend, Joy.   

That's all for my very sad story. Hope my dear joy will be fine and recover well soon. Till then!

With Love,
Little Rose 

Morning With Joy

As i woke up, i heard my "miao" sounds so loud in the living room. I really can't stand her voice because she keep on making sounds. Never stop even i already gave her food, water and clean her litter box. I played with her and she will still moving around actively, for sure never stop meowing. I can't understand what else she wants. I look at her eyes, and she looks back at me with the sad face because i scold her for her bad behaviour. My house is a mess because of her.

Hmmm... This morning, when i ready to go to work, i told her that i am leaving for work. She insists to go outside the house and she make it while i am busy taking my shoes. The main door is open and she just slipped out . I am looking for her under my car and there she is hiding next to my car engine. Really scare me but lucky that i am aware of it and check my car engine before i start my car. I have to push her to ask her to get out from there. Scold her a fe times but i know that she will not understand what am i saying. What else can i do to prevent her from making this silly action? Her action will harm herself.

Anyway, i off to work after that. While she keep on meowing in the house when i lock her inside. I need to finish her cage @ home that i suppose to get it ready before Christmas. Not sure what will her actions and behaviour if i put her in a cage as her new house.

Till then, that i the story of my morning with Joy. Hope you guys have a very good start and wonderful morning. God bless our day and let there be peace in this world!

Having Pets

I thought it will be easy taking care of pets. No matter if it is a fish or a dog or a cats.. Hmmm... When the first time i bought ANGEL (Angel Fish), there are two of them but they fight for a space and one dead after one week. Still i doesn't feel anything because it is just a fish.. (Kejam kan?). Now only one left and i ask my friend, Amy to help me to take of him (nda tau pa jantina dia tapi hensem sudah..agak2 ja, lama sudah sya nda melawat dia..). Almost one years old, i bought him Jan 3rd this year.

My Angel

After that, i bought LUCKY (Gold Fish - small one). She is almost 9 months now. I bought her March 3rd this year too. I keep her in a glass round aquarium. Not so big and not so small (sedang-sedang la bah tu..) without oxygen and most of my friends surprised because i can keep a gold fish without oxygen. Hmm.. she still survive now. Since having JOY, i have to keep LUCKY in my room and prohibited JOY to enter my room. They will not become a good buddy. I still can take care of Lucky because to look after her is very easy. I need to clean her 'room' once in two weeks and feed her twice a day. Easy fella. She will react with my voice, i think she heard me.. he he he... (perasaan ku saja bah itu...)..

My Lucky 

Then, on 14th November i brought home JOY (a domestic cat) from one of logging camp at Tenom. Having problem with her because after a few days she falls sick. Lost appetite and always feeling uncomfortable. Vomiting roundworm thrice within two days. She really makes me worried and when i don't understand what she wants i lost my temper (sya telah memdera Joy beberapa kali... memang ibu tiri yang kejam..huhuhu)... I have to bring her to vet and having vaccination for internal and external parasites (cacing, kutu dan ....... lupa pula satu lagi tu). Yesterday i have to call Vet and ask him to check on JOY again because she lost her appetite and don't want to swallow anything. Adoi.... pening terus kepala sya oo... Then, have to gave her another injection, vitamin and antibiotics. Really afraid that she can not stand those injections and drugs entering her skinny body. Huhuhu.. She became so thin now. Pity JOY.... 

This experienced really test my patience. She makes so much noise but i don't know what she wants. I clean up her litter box, i gave her clean food and water, i clean up her 'bed' (bakul tempat tidur dialah bah tu...) and put her 'bed' in front of my room. Still she wondering around and looking at my face. Huhuhuhu... At last i makes my own assumption that she is telling me that she is sick and she feel uncomfortable. Asking for me to make her feel better. But, how??? I am not your mother la miaw.... Anyway, i do hope she will recover soon. She is really cute and active kitten but her attitude change because of her sickness. Kesian.. This is her latest photos taken yesterday... 

My Joy
Keep on 'meow meow meow' but i don't know what she wants... 

In her new 'bed'... with colouful ball and she loves playing that.

JOY - My Little Hairy Friend

I was away for about three days. Doing outstation works. The great things was, i get my new little friend from logging camp this weekend. While we were visiting sites, we stop by at one of the logging camp. While we having coffee at the canteen, there were three kittens attracts us. Asking the ladies in the canteen and they asks us to take all the kittens back with us. They already have too many cats at the camp. There are more than 30 cats. They always give away kittens to villagers nearby or other visitors that stop by their camp. So, this time is our time. We took all three of them. I took one with me and another two was taken by my other friend.

I called her JOY. Why? Because she will brings joy to my life since i always stayed alone at home every weekend. My housemates went back home very weekend. Besides, Christmas is coming and Joy is my precious Christmas gift to myself. Yay! Okay, here is some of Joy faces on the first day she enter her new home (my home and will become our home).

Love,
Little Rose
