Adopt me!

Assalaamualaikum...

Alhamdulillah, with the help of Allah always, I've a kitten up for adoption. She was left on my doorstep about a week ago and she had puke all over her. It was obvious she wasn't well. Took her to the vet and the vet said she's about one month old and unfortunately she had worms, parasite, lice and something wrong with her bladder. During check up, terus bagi ubat for her worms and parasite. Medication for lice and indigestion was for me to give her at home. The first night she pooped blood (all over me! blueky! tapi takpe) and I was really worried for this little kittens' survival.



But with the Grace of Allah the All-Mighty, after a week of medication, she is really healthy =) I managed to poopie train her and her indigestion problem is no longer (though her poopie still busuk semacam XD, but thats just normal i guess). She also has an appetite of an elephant! She eats like there's no tomorrow and she'll gorge down the kitty food. Since she's still small, memang dia tak pandai control kot. So I have to ration her food for her, kalau tak nanti kembung (which happened on the 2nd day and she farted so many times, tambah lah lagi aroma2 di rumah saya ni, hahaha.) I've also treated her lice problem and things are looking really good for her.

gaya dia nak tidur, hehe.


 cute blue eyes! 
(sorry the pic is blurry. she won't keep still!)


Now that she is getting better, her personality is showing and she has somewhat of an anxiety separation problem, but understandable though since she doesn't have a mother and she's been through a lot in her short life of a month. But when she's full and happy, she'll play around like any normal kitty would nibbling on peoples feet, chasing whoever passes her, play with bells, etc.



I would keep her but chobeng is not so friendly, haha. Chobeng was really jealous cause I was busy with the new kitten and she actually merajuk for two whole days where she didn't eat anything at all and didn't do anything too!


She just slept and even when she was awake she would just stare. And she wouldn't let me touch her! I would stroke her and she'll walk away. I would hold her in my arms and she'll wriggle free. Banyak perangai budak kecik ni, hehe. Alhamdulillah, Chobeng is eating again and is beginning to be normal again.

budak nakal!

teramat sangat2 comel >_<


Haha, tapi I understand jugak la perasaan Chobeng, she was also a stray kitten that I picked up from the streets. Though she was two months old when I took her in. She was much weaker condition than the new kitten but she didn't have much complication with her health, all praise be to Allah. She is a part of the family now and dah jalan jauh sampai ke kedah utntuk raya hari tu, hehe. sekarang dia dah manja sangat.

From this... (first night)

 to this!


Haha, chobeng chobeng..

Anyway, anybody interested or knows somebody who might be interested to adopt cute-blue-eyes kitty, do leave a comment or straight away contact me on my cell.

Assalaamualaikum...

Get on the wagon!

Assalaamualaikum...

As some of you may know, I'm kinda of a 'green' freak sometimes. And ever since I've discovered the recycling centre in my area, I'm kind of getting addicted to recycling, haha. Nowadays, as I walk to the neighbourhood shops or drive by in town or have lunch in a restaurant and I pass by recyclable litter, I have to contain myself from picking it up. It's an ethical and social conflict I have. I wanna pick up that discarded drink can or bottle so badly but I'm afraid of what people may think of me. On occasion, I do give in and I pick up rubbish (not from bins though!) and try really hard not to let other people's judgements affect my cause for a better, cleaner, sustainable environment.

Alhamdulillah, since I've started recycling at the Kent Soon Recycling centre just outside of Uda, I've managed to earn about RM200+ . I recycle bit by bit and on one trip to the centre I get an average of RM3. And I get a boost in my earnings especially when there's a boost in my trash during spring cleaning or we have guests over for dinner.

Though this side income, I have to admit, has influenced and even has kept me motivated to continue recycling, my heart and conscious still urges me to continue recycling because of the greater good of the environment. The more I know about recycling and its affects, the more I want to keep at it and invite others to do so. The more I recycle, the more I think it's such a simple thing to do and the more I want to remind others to do so.  The more I recycle, the richer I get! Rich I tell youuuu, Rich! *does evil laugh as thunder crackles in the background* Mua, mua, muahahahaha!

Anywayyyy, yeah, join me in recycling, people!


Most people say that separating rubbish is troublesome but there's a simple solution for that. Have two bins! One for normal trash, while the other is for recyclables. It's a split second decision and chore, you either throw it in the bin on the left or the right (whichever way you susun your bins). And the next time you take out your trash, just chuck the recyclables in the recycle bin. If there isn't a recycling centre nearby, of course you would have to do some research on where the nearest recyclable bins are in your campus/ work place/ neighbourhood. Or just wait for the 'surat khabar lama' lorries to make their rounds. But once that is done, recycling will become a routine and you wouldn't think of it as an impossible task any more. Simple!



Alhamdulillah, I've persuaded two of my friends to recycle as well. And I help them to send their recyclables to the centre. And one of them collected RM60+ for a whole pile of stuff she sorted out because she 'intensive' cleaned her house for raya. Ada newspaper, monitors (she got RM14 for one of em! even if you send to computer shops they only take it for only RM5), printers, cardboard boxes, old cards, plastic bags, dolls, bags, tins, old books and magazines, bottles and memang banyak ar barang dia. We had to make two trips to the centre and on each trip my car was packed, the back seat and the boot was full! Phuh, penat jugak angkut barang masuk and keluar kereta but it was worth it.

And guess what.. I even managed to persuade my favourite mamak shop to recycle some of their rubbish too, of course it's Osman! I've a friendly relationship with some of the staff there and I learnt my tamil from a couple of their workers and I talk tamil to all of the workers there. Though they keep changing staff members among the Osman restaurant chains and I see different faces every few months or so, I enjoy going there. And even though their recycling habit isn't consistent and at most times they forget but once in a while they still do even when I forget. For example, they sell sweets on their cash counter and one day, when the stock of sweets finished, they gave me the containers. I was pleasantly surprised and even kept a few for myself to put the load of kuih raya my dad bought. The rest I sent to the recycling centre. Alhamdulillah. So...

GET ON THE WAGON, PEOPLE!

No, I don't mean this one..

Happy recycling =)
