Àmi-The stray turned pet.

Strayed animals are everywhere these days, and also a common sight in most cities.
Except for certain countries that consume these strays, the rest will have few tactics to counter this problem while the local SPCA would not have enough resources to keep all these animals in their shelter.

But enough about this problem, what I would like to blog about today is my stray turned cat Àmi, a 4.2kg (and increasing), orange and white bicolor female cat which grows fond to me and my brother for the passed year. She has a few teeth less in the front row of her mouth for reasons we do not know, a tendency to consume heavy artificial flavored foodstuff (a junk food cat!). Her current meal is fish and meat. Picky about her fish and only eats a certain type although doesn't mind it being frozen or fresh. While her meat have to be fresh grounded pork, which she eats them uncooked.

We made her our official housepet after a difficult delivery when we decided to have her spayed when the kittens is 2months old and adopted by someone.

For a usual day, the cat commutes between our home and the shop for a scenery change most morning and get her breakfast, without begging. The only thing after spaying is that now she sleeps whole day inside and outside or enjoying sunbathing during the day.
When the sun goes down she turns active and chase around bits of papers or any small objects, fighting them until she needs to rest. This is her only exercise and we will usually play along with her tp extend her workout.
When the family goes to sleep, she find her resting place outside the house (This be rules) upon most peculiar places.
There you go, my cat's routine.

Night run- Rat Race Run Kuching 201

Hi ho,
Just two days ago was when the rat race run event was being held.
This is a charity event and more of a fun run, where us participants wear anything but normal sportswear.
Showing up that evening were, handsome and pretty office people, students, lab coat peopel, doctors and all kind, we even have a cow!!

As for myself, I put on ny old set of Taekwondo uniform, aha, I sure did.

We reached earlier and overlook how the organisers all dressed up in lady outfits and being cheered upon and their photis taken.
All that dress n make ups...and a whole lot of leg hair!

So, before we realise it they sound the horn and people in front started running. Probably cuz we were all looking at the fun show. And so did we all stsrted running as well, leaving more dumbfounded innocent people behind.

Not more than 1km did we ran that the weather decided to turn from windy to stormy, droplets started wetting the road  and the next thing we were all running in the middle of the heavy rain. At least we dont have lightnings.

Because of this the 7km and 4km options were abandoned and everyone take a 4.9 route back to the starting point.

In between the strong wind, wet and slippery uphills, flooded junctions road, we made it back to the starting point no more than 45mins after we started.
Thankfully we brought a waterproof casing for our hand phone. Or else the run would have been an expensive one which we need to send phone for repairs.
Right when we reached the end of the line we were presented with a can of beer (See? A fun run), and a bottle of sports drink. And also a singlet.
Apart from those who brought raincoats,  everyone is wet like chicken soup that fun night.

No lucky lottery win from me and dear though,  and one of our friend has a busted phone from the wetness.
Personally, running in the rain is...extremely fun!! Hahaha.
