Cats who teach me to fly…

Mel has gone to Kuantan on an educational trip and she will be back next Monday. It is 8.50pm now. Weather is cool after a bout of heavy rain. Cashie and Monnie are lying lazily.

These siblings are six months old tomorrow. How time flies and Miemi had gone for three months. Her physical body may no longer be around but her spirit is still alive and playful. Perhaps she is lying next to me now:).

This fresh chrysanthemum arrangement is made for her today.

Once again and again and again… Hope she likes it!

This is the latest wallpaper displayed on my ipad now.

Fur kids must be hungry now. Going to prepare food for them. They will be having fish and chicken. How 幸福 they are!

I volunteered myself to drive the cats to the vet today for sterilisation. I picked the cats, nine cats, to the vet at Jalan Kayu. Although they were all caged for the moment, they are still the fortunate ones. At least they are allowed to live. Cats that are not spay and when they are caught by AVA( Agri-Food And Veterinary Authority), the chances of them surviving are slim as majority of them are put to sleep.

Singapore spent 8 million Singapore dollars on a polar bear in zoo and yet Singapore did not even bother to save our stray cats and dogs. I am against the inhumane way that AVA handles the cats and dogs. They use a rope to hang puppies till they die and use wire to capture dogs. Dogs that were captured by them bleeds terribly. Yes, I am angry. These are such cruel act.

Our government has always ask us to be gracious towards foreigners. Yes, foreigners who bring and spend money in Singapore. Polar bear that helps Singapore to boost the economy. Yes, the strays worth nothing and therefore, they have to be treated inhumanly.

A life is a life, it does not matter whether it is a man or animal. All life are precious. If we believe that God created all living things including animals, then we should love all God’s creation. If we can’t love all God’s creation, how are we going to love God. If we want to show God that we love Him, then we must first love all his creation including ourselves.

I sent the cats to the vet at around 8.30am and picked them up at 6.30pm. I am happy to see them being spayed. CWS(Cats Welfare Society) has really made great effort on saving cats. CWS is a private organisation. I hope I can help them again.

Look what I have baked!

Chocolate Chips Muffin

The chocolate chips muffin was baked yesterday. Mel and her family said that it was nice but just a little sweet. So today I baked cranberry muffin, sugar reduced. See what Mel and family have to say when they eat tonight.

Cranberry Muffin

I am going to bake some for my aunt over the weekend since I will be passing by her place. Thinking of baking some chocolate swirl cake for myself. Usually when I bake, I don’t really eat them. I just taste some and give all to friends and relatives.

I want to bake different types of muffins and decorate cupcakes. I intent to do cupcakes for parties so decoration is very important but the cake must taste fantastic at least to me.

I know nowadays bakeries use cupcake decoration to attract customers and the quality of the cupcake taste horrible. I find that even the icing sugar that bakeries use for decoration tasted awful. I guess these are to attract children.

After preparing, baking and cleaning up, I feel rather tired. The fur kids just had their lunch and now they went separate ways to go to sleep. One sleeps under the bed and another sleeps right on top of my printer.

This fur kids(including Miemi always) really make me happy.

I had this little crysanthemun arranged it into a dome shape. I always love something that is fat and round:).

I like the colours and I hope Miemi loves it.

I went to Bugis Junction today to look for a stall that does photo engraving. I wanted to engrave Miemi’s photo on a pendant. I forgot to bring my wallet, therefore, I could not buy it. I actually intended to go back again but when I got back home, I was just too comfortable to move again.

I found an online store that does photo engraving and I bought it online. I requested for a 3D heart-shaped pendant, however, the sales person advised that it will look better in a rectangle shape pendant and I heed his advise.

I had some wording to be engraved at the back of the pendant too. Once I receive it, I will take a picture. Hopefully, the outcome is what I want.

I see Cashie and Monnie as an art. Look at them!

They are so adorable and I love everything about them.

When Mel and I first brought them in, they were only 9 weeks. When I woke up in the morning, no matter how sleepy they were, they both would get up from under my bed and stand at the bedroom door and stare at me. Both looking sleepy.

Now I hardly see them waking up in a blur face and staring at me. Both would walk to me in a different timing and location. They are six months in a week’s time. See how much they have changed.

They are growing bigger and bigger each and every day.

Lets take a look at them when they first came in.

No matter how old they are, they remain adorable and loving in my heart. Just like what I feel for Miemi, she is being loved and missed by me every day, always and forever…

I would start from school, learning and studying hard. Even if my parents could not afford to let me further my studies, I would work as a part timer and study real hard for myself. I would treat every sentient being with love, kindness and compassion right on the day when i was born. I would still choose to move out when I am able to support myself. I want a vehicle too, a small and a simple one, preferably, a mini van. I would volunteer myself in an animal shelter regularly. Love cats, love dogs and all animals. I might not be able to buy a flat for myself as flats in Singapore is still expensive twenty years back. Renting a place is my only solution. I would love to adopt a small animal when I reach twenty-one and when I am also financially independent and continue adopting until my time is up. I might not be able to fulfil my parents’ and siblings’ needs but I would give my love to them. I would still love to take up part time courses, to keep learning new skill and new things, to venture to more areas like what I am doing now. I still would want to be a freelancer and have my own time to be with my loved ones. I want to be financially independent. When I retired I would still like to work a little, perhaps three to four hours a day to keep my mind healthy and stay healthy. I would still play badminton and read alot.

I cannot redo my past but I can still achieve what I wish to change. I may not have a university degree like anyone here in Singapore but I still can have a life that I wish for.
What I can do is:
1) To start volunteer myself fortnightly in an animal shelter.
2) Miemi taught me how to love animals and I honour her by adopting Cashie and Monnie. I will continue loving animals till my time is up. I may not start at the age of twenty-one, however, twenty-seven was never late. Miemi came to me when I was twenty-seven. Thank you Miemi, i have learnt valuable lessons from you.
3) I need to be independent as I have purchased a flat and it will be ready next year. I will work very hard on this without scarifying too much of my time.
4) Yes, I will, Infact already loving all sentient being. I will keep working hard in this area too till my time is up.

The life I want is very simple. Though I am not very far from redoing my life, however, the price of not getting a proper education during my younger days obstructed me in all ways in my career path even till now.

By not showing love and compassion since the day i was born towards all sentient being could result in a lot of guilt and regrets and cultivate bad seeds.

Based on what I have written on top, I have a clearer picture of how I want my life to be. Action has to be taken.
