Too small fines for pet abuse
THE fines currently imposed on pet brutality are a “joke”. The few hundred dollars are small change.
I am a pet lover and I owned two Irish Setters and a Yorkshire terrier during my 30 years’ stay in Britain. Fines imposed in Britain amount to thousands of pounds depending on the seriousness of the situation.
The punishment extends to imprisonment and “a ban for life” on owning any pet. This should be extended to Malaysia.
It will not only reduce the number of unwanted pets in the neighbourhood but also improve the quality of life of “man’s best friend”.
If someone decides to own a pet, he should carry that responsibility and accountability till the pet dies. If that cannot be executed, then he should not own a pet.
It saddens me to see dogs chained up all day during my walks around the neighbourhood (especially when the gates are closed). Dogs are social animals and like to interact with humans.
In Britain, mistreatment of pets is often reported by neighbours to the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) and the police who will descend promptly to investigate.
Mistreatment of pets is a big issue in Britain, where it is often stated that “the dog looks like the owner”. This means that pet owners select the breed that complements their lifestyle.
If you do not like walking the dogs, do not own one that needs a lot of exercise, especially large dogs. Likewise, if you cannot be bothered to keep the pet's skin healthy and its hair in a presentable condition, go for a breed with short hair.
Basically, all potential pet owners should assess their lifestyle and reasons for a pet before even looking at any breed.
A pet is a lifetime commitment and not “showroom merchandise”. Time is needed to house-train the puppies and develop their social behaviour with humans and other pets.
Pets are not to be used as an extension or display of one’s wealth or macho-ness.
Concerned Expatriate Subang Jaya, Selangor
I'm relieved to know that there are still somebody out there who concerns to animals right. He/She is right when he/she said that the fine imposed was really a "joke"... the poor doggy suffered so much before being put to sleep and the culprit got away easily by juz paying a fine as low as RM100 (that's even cheaper than a bottle of SKII! shit!!)... better don't impose the fine at all, better don't at all.. it juz make the "law" looks more foolish, as if it's not foolish enuff at its current state... it's never fair, it's never just.. who call it justice at the first place anyway...I wonder...

Longevity and Prosperity

Had been a long week... nice holidays... hmmm..... had been having all the fun...busy weekends though.. was grandma 80th grand burfday last saturday, 05112005.. phewww... after all those preparations for her birfday dinner, finally it turns out that my PoPo had a fabulous time.. (she can't help but smile all day..:) all her sons and daughters, grand children and great grandchildren, presented her with the finest gifts and love that she deserves best...
Looking back, I had been taken care by my PoPo since the 1st day I was brought home... nourishing me with all the love and care she could possibly give... I was a sickly child when i was young.. I used to have asthma (it stopped totally when i reach 12years old, thank god!) and with juz a sip of any cold drinks was enuff to throw me into an asthmatic fit, complemented wif high fever and pain stakingly non-stop coughing all through the nite...and who sat up the whole damn nite to take care of this damn sick child...? my PoPo..
My PoPo not only taking care of this damn child.. but also the whole family.. she washes, she cooks, she sews and she mends everything in the house, making sure everyone are living within the comfort zone, safe and sound..with enuff good food for dinner every single day.. and she did these without a single complaint..
She did not have a comfortable life herself when she was young.. her late husband died at an early age of 40, leaving her as a poor widow with six hungry children to feed..and she work hard as a maid for a rich family to sustain her family, to make sure each and everyone of her children could get appropriate education, enuff food to fill their stomachs and a rented small room for them to live in... untill they are old enuff to take care of themselves...
I ponder... looking at my PoPo, her wrinkled face showing all the hardship, pain and happiness she encounter all through her 80 years... I felt tears in my eyes... I am really proud of my PoPo...i dont think many of us could imagine how difficult life used to be back then, as we are now living a life so blessed wif sufficient resources to a luxury living...she made me proud!
My PoPo deserves all the best in the world for her sacrifices and love she had given us.. I wish her a happy 80th birthday, good health and longevity...long enuff to see all her great great great great grand children...
PoPo, thank you for your care and love all these years..you will always be the Queen of my Heart.. love you lots!

High & Mighty Horrible Smelly Dork - the society

Hmmm.. had been having bad bad moods for the whole week... isn't it frustrating that an action or some actions taken by a particular person have such an enormous impact on urfeelings? These ppl never realize the things they do or say will make others sad.. leaving them in an utterly upset condition...
Hurting you by saying something sarcastic/stupid/disencouraging or doing something sarcastic/stupid/disencouraging makes these ppl feel so much better about themselv
es that,i must agree, it's becoming a daily antidote for their "i'm-losing-my-ego " disease...cuz by doing that, they will feel that they are better than you, to show that they have more than you and you are nothing but juz a tiny speck of dust in the air in comparison with them... (they are namely the "high and mighty" society, they think!)...
Don't they have anything better to do other than trying to trigger off other ppl's anger...? can't they juz knock off their disgusting attitude juz for a minute..? Yes, you may be a pretty boy/gal, dashingly handsome/frantically gorgeous or if not, somewhat good looking... but that doesn't mean you need to look down on ppl less fortunate than you are... we may not be pretty like you, or rich like you, or gorgeous like you...or even has a better brain than you, but wut we have is a good heart...we have more feelings.. we are sentimental..and we are definitely sensative to other ppls feeling.. we know how to respect other ppls feelings... how you treat others reflects on what kind of a person you really are.. i believe all of us would like to be treated in the same equality, without discriminations, and most of all, with respect.. and in order to obtain these respective treats from others... please do a self-check on urself... how do you treat other ppl... if you treat other ppl like dog juz becuz you're a pretty face (but act like a slut)/multi-millionaire/clever brain, chances are, you're juz another horrible smelly dork! So what if you have wut it takes to be a "high & mighty" socielite?!! You're juz another smelly dork, not that others can smell you, but God is able to.. karma is always there, the law of karma will make sure you get back the things reflective of what you have done to others...even what you speak about others..
Be wise when you choose your words, think before you speak, look before you leap.. you may still be able to make fun of others and laugh at them, but one day if you get whack till pokai by somebody even meaner than you, surely you will end up in the hospital bed not even knowing how you get urself there in the first place.. if you think you're the greatest, there's somebody out there even better than you.. watch your mouth, and guard your back, dorky..
so... to all those "high & mighty" smelly dorks out there, I hope you won't end up eating your own words...if not, then, we, the weaker ones, will have the last laugh!! Pray hard, dorky...! mua hahaha....mua hahahah....


Inhumane

I was shocked after i finished this article when i was reading the paper yesterday.. I nearly cry when i saw how pitiful the doggie in the picture... I'm wondering.. how could anyone abuse animals in such a way that, it seems he hasn't a sound mind at all....
Dear ppl, I hope all of us are animal lovers... even if you're not one who's always passionate about pets or animals...i beg you not to do such inhumane act as below:

RM100 fine for dog abuse
BY CHIN MUI YOON

PLEADED GUILTY: Lien (the stupid asshole) trying to dodge photographers when leaving the Shah Alam magistrate’s court yesterday.SHAH ALAM: An engineer admitted to grossly neglecting his German Shepherd and letting it suffer unduly, and was slapped with a RM100 fine.
Douglas Lien San Chong, 46, was charged with allowing his dog's health to deteriorate and its body to be infested with ticks and not providing it with medical care.
Veterinarians tried saving the dog but decided to put it to sleep to end its misery.
Lien said in mitigation that he had been “too busy with his personal matters and house moving” to look after the canine.
“The tick infestation was a small problem and there was enough food and water for the dog, which was already old and sickly anyway,” Lien, who was unrepresented, told the court. <--- (feels like kicking his @&#$^&%) He was charged in a magistrate's court here yesterday with committing the offence on Aug 18 at No 38, USJ 17/3B.
VICTIM OF ABUSE:
(pic unavailable) This was how Veterinary Services Department officers found Sheena on Aug 18 at its owner’s house in Subang Jaya.Magistrate Hafizah Abdul Rajak fined him RM100.
Lien was charged under Section 44(1)(d) of the Animal Ordinance 1953, which provides for a fine of up to RM200 and a jail term of up to six months.
On Aug 18, Kuala Lumpur Veterinary Services Department officers seized the dog, Sheena, which was suffering from malnutrition and severe tick fever.
The Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals plans to file an appeal at the High Court today, seeking the maximum penalty.
Its animal inspector Sabrina Yeap said a fine of RM100 would not serve to deter anyone from abusing animals.
The post-mortem, she added, showed that the dog had an empty stomach, shrunken kidneys, a brittle ribcage, indicating inadequate nutrition over the years, and haemorrhage in its lungs, a sign of pneumonia.
Moreover, its nails were long and curved into its paws, causing pain when it tried to walk.
Department enforcement unit head Zainuddin Isma Yatim said this was one of the worst cases of animal abuse he had ever seen.
“How could anyone cause an animal to suffer so much,” he said.
In December, a 39-year-old businesswoman was jailed three days and fined RM200 for abusing her pet dog.
See how pitiful the abused victim..? I'm not sure about the court decision to fine the f**king abuser for RM100 only.. it's not fair for the animal and with such minor punishment, it doesn't reflect the pain and suffering caused by him to his pet... come on, you won't purposely try to hurt any other animals moreover this is your pet... the one that you take care of, loyally waiting for you to come back everyday and play with him..cute and adorable..that's what u were thinking at the first place when u decided to take it as a pet.. how could one neglects his own pet in such a way.. imagine you doing that to your own children.. could you do it..?
I'm so sick with the world today.. it's not peaceful anymore... we wouldn't know when the terrorist wil attack and kill thousands of innocents again... when the war will strikes again... and even animals, be it pets or wild, are fearing the threats of abusing owners and illegal poachers now...
Human is the creature of destruction to the earth, indeed...
