our 3rd trip to the zoo

I love animals so trav and i visited the zoo again 2 weeks ago.. There was a thunderstorm that day.. So our trip was kinda wasted and we only managed to see a few animals cos they were all hiding..



Love this cartoon!! So cute!!



We were waiting for the kids animal show to start when it started to pour with thunder and lightning.. Otherwise, i could have watched my fav little cats and dogs perform at this super cute set..


They cuddled so close together cos the storm and wind was really scarily huge.. And we saw one monkey scratching his hand just like us.. And for some reason, it looked so much like trav hubs hands..

My Beloved baby had gone to heaven... Angel Fluffy maybe??

Found Fluffy as a baby 7 years ago when i was going jogging at bedok reservoir.. He was abandoned by some evil person!!

So I took him home and we bonded really well and really fast.

He would rush towards me whenever i return home and he was always the attention seeking bunny.. making loads of noise in the cage so that we would feed him..

He ate everything that a rabbit didnt! He disliked carrots, ate selected vege (leaf only) , apples, grapes, and his fave was bread! And He only ate the flesh of the apple, and wld leave the skin behind for me to dispose off

We put him up at pet hotels every yr when we travel, and i know he hated it cos each time I picked him up, he would just jump around and place his head at my hands so that I can stroke him.

He fell sick last year but I managed to nurse him back to health..that was the time we bonded the most and I felt how he depended so much on me like a little child.. 

 but I guess not this time...he's probably too old.. Im just curious as to why the vet didnt mention about him in critical state, and instead only told me to force feed him.. And how is it that after returning from the vet that he had such a dratic deterioration in his state..

I woke up at 430am last nite, and cldnt fall back aslp even tho i was tired.. So I went to feed him again and spent some time with him.. I already knew that he was not going to live long..I knew he was sad to leave cos he had tears in his eyes while I stroked him, the night I fed him b4 going to bed..

I got up early the at 8am again to check on him and feed him...this time, he wasnt able to eat at all.. all the food just came back out no matter how I put them into his mouth thru the syringe..his eyes cld hardly open..

I left to teach and was planning to take him to the vet at 11am when it opened.. but I guess he chose to leave quietly while I was away so that I wouldnt see him breathe his last.

But anyway,the day has come for him to become fluffy angel..and im sure he lived the best way a bunny could ever do...

 the little white butterfly that has been flying my mum at home for the past 2 days, leads him away..

Like a lil baby.. I gota be ready to let him go..

I brought him to the vet today cos I just couldnt wait till Tue (when his appt is fixed) cos I just felt that sumthg was really not right..

And true enough, he hid in a corner when I put him in the carrier cage throughout the drive to the vet..

Looking really down at the vet... I miss the playful fluffy I saw just earlier this week.. he was still not that bad actually.. even when i brought him home and left to settle some things..
But once i got home, my heart sank when I saw him slumped, lifeless in the cage..

Even after feeding him what the vet gave, he still lay in his cage with limbs spread out, looking really weak..

I fed him about an hour later.. (about half an hr ago)  while he was being cradled  btwn my knees again.. this time, I stroked his head and looked in his eyes..

I could see tears welling up in his eyes.. and he looked at me as though he was about to go.. and that he was sad.. I just couldnt help but shed some tears.. Altho he is just a lil bunny which ive had since 2002, Im really emotionally attached to him.. Im sure pet lovers will understand this..

Right now, even tho I can hardly stay awake, I cant slp and not worry if he will still be needing me to force feed him again..

All things bunny-ish!!

A fluffy look-a-like at the kids kampung! The bunnies there were 10 times greedier than Fluffy I swear!

And a little bunny bun that my daddy amd mummy bought me, about 3 weeks back...

Din eat it tho, cos it was made of coconut flakes on top, which I really dislike, and it was a doughnut..too oily and sinful...

Plus, how could I chow down such a cutie???

My Trouble maker

I guess I never bonded so much with Fluffy until his recent illnesses.. when he was all skin and bones only, weighing a mere 1.18kg.. I never felt happier seeing him grab food out of my hands eagerly..

I love cuddling him this way.. like a little baby.. The day I sent him for surgery, I felt like a mum worrying for her baby.. cos being old, Fluffy could have never woken up again from it..

Slowly but surely, Fluff was becoming himself again! Eating, running around, and Tearing all the newspaper laid out nicely for him.. the vet told me to do this to prevent sore hocks on his legs...

But as always, he just messes everything up..Grrr!!!

Bad Bunny!!

But he's ever so endearing, especially when he comes up to me when i get home.. and gives me that "give me some Food" look!

My sick Baby

Soo much medicine for Fluff babe.. anitbiotics, food that is to be force fed, cream for his hind legs..

My heart ached when I noticed how sick he looked and how skinny he felt this week.. I could feel and can still feel his spine.. he used to be chubby and hyper active.. we brought him to the vet today.. it was quite a long wait before the vet saw him cos we had no appointment, but looking at the other cute but sick doggies and bunnies made the entire 2 hrs there worthwhile..

I must really thank Mummy for always having to do the dirty job of cleaning his cage and clearing his poopoo.. and Daddy for always going to buy his food and bedding.. and Trav deary too!! For giving him love, and helping me with the force feeding of the food and his medicine..

Today, I suddenly realised how a parent would worry for his child.. although Fluffy is just my bunny, I felt as though my baby was ill and my heartached.. feeling his bones and knowing that he suffered made me sad..

hope he gets well soon..

Xmas at the Zoo

The weather was perfect on Xmas day...and the animals at the zoo must have felt like superstars that day...

He poses so well...

Sooo cute!!! They just kept eating and eating... and eating...

why are they still so skinny???

The Billy goat!!! my daddy's friend...

The words seem ever so familiar..

Very very playful monkeys that tried to eat Trav's umbrella

The very very meek and shy mouse deer.. tiny and soo cute...and they are always discreetly trying to be not seen amongst the greenery

They made friends...

And these are her friends...

We have become regulars...

Trav and I have really become regulars at the Kids Kampong.. we love to feed the very very very hungry animals..

Especially the wabbits..

These rabbits behaved like they had no food for 10 days...when we got near their hutch, they immediately rushed up to us like little hungry ghosts..

They followed us frantically in the direction we walked each time..

I especially loved the little brown one at the right corner, with the white nose.. did he bleach his nose or sthg???

Another Meowwww

Xianglin gave me this cute lil schedule book for 09 today.. Wish I could have the kitten for real..

Am gonna aim to fill this book with lots of new experiences,with loads of events and activities, and loads of Movie Room bookings, loads of modelling clients' bookings and loads of tuition assignments!!

And the book comes with a Japan Subway Map..hah.. useful when I get there in Jan...

All about cats...

A cute little organizer Trav dear bought me.. I forgot to check its price... $8.95 for a small, teeny book!!!! I kept telling Trav dear we shdnt have bought it...

Too bad.. I was totally engrossed in finding a gift for a little girl.. The poodle is cute!! Like my little lamb... (see above) Oh well... I never grow up...


And I bought this for myself last week... needed a new organizer... And till date, even with PDAs around, I am still not comfortable not having a "hard copy" to refer to...

Meow... meow... many many meowsss...

Awww,,, and this....sigh... Its always appearing in my blog posts.. cos I just cant resist taking pictures of it when i play with it.. This picture makes my heartache...

I captured his expression of calling out for someone to take him home.. I cant... otherwise I would have done so long ago.. instead of acting silly, meowing to it like a mad woman all the time when I'm at the coffeeshop..

Argh...

he looks disappointed.. probably cos I did not feed him today...

The little kitty... take him home

Been feeding this kitty with Trav dear whenever we head to the coffeeshop near my place.. It has been months but he still looks so tiny..

And some sick shit had abused this kitty.. If u look close enough at his eyes, you'll see..

Am hoping to be able to find sum1 to take care of him..

HorseyS!!

A relatively new place that we chanced upon while driving pass on a day where we din know what to do..

I saw the word Pony and asked Trav Dear to drive by so we could take a look.. and heres what we found!!

This adorable little blondie made a cute little snort at us...

I love things in white... and so had a preference for the white horsey as well!

Tiny tiny one...looking at my feet??

The horsey's mane needed serious salon treatment.. it was dry and not nice to touch...

A little Trip to the SPCA

I love Fridays!! That is at least for the past few weeks.. It is the only day that Trav dear and I get to spend the whole day together and take a little time off work..

The rain changed our plans for Tanjong beach and we ended up at SPCA to look at little pets.. I was glad the dogs were all caged up.. Some of them were really huge! But they looked really pitiful..They all had that "take me home" look on their faces..

All the pets there were interactive..as you walk along, the dogs wld stick their head in between the bars as if to say they needed a home..

The cats were kept in a little enclosure and they could play with one another.. I went inside the room and most of the cats were sleeping.. These are the grown up ones and there were a few fat ones..

This one was trying to Poopoo when his friend came and disturbed... I guess he cldnt shit in peace so he did not after all..

The younger cats were kept separately in cages in anoter room.. I fell in love with this little one the moment I laid eyes on it..

It started meowing at me with the most innocent tone and stared at me.. I put my hand thru the cage and it placed its head at my hand so that I cld stroke it..

There were bunnies as well!! This one was our fave cos his hair resembled Trav dears..

See tat funky hair???
