My Apologies..

21 August, 2007 at 3:57 am · Filed under Misc Matters, Tis Me

Hi All..

My apologies for the lack of updates..

I guess this blog and site suffered most from my trying to juggle too many and too much..

The good thing is that.. I’m never bored..

The bad thing is that.. I dont have the time to even feel bored..

Anyway, I do see the light at the end of the tunnel..

Am in the midst of clearing the things on my plate.. So, hopefully, I’ll be able to see bits of the plate soon..

I thank all who wrote in expressing concerns..

Don’t worry.. The site will go on..

There are plans to even revamp the site.. So please do be patient with me..

And please continue writing in should you have further comments or enquiries..

Thank you..

Yours sincerely,
SCCARFS Pet Connection Project

In An Ideal World

16 June, 2007 at 9:42 am · Filed under Tis Me, Words & Thoughts

In an ideal world, no animals will suffer in the hands of humans..

In an ideal world, animals and humans will co-exist peacefully..

In an ideal world, animals and humans will live with much respect for the other..

In an ideal world, animals will live without fear of humans..

In an ideal world, humans will cease to wrongfully seize for personal gains..

In an ideal world, the world will be a better place..

Unfortunately, we’re far from being in an ideal world..

And we’re actually getting further and further away..

Wanna Live in a Toilet?

28 March, 2007 at 1:08 pm · Filed under Tis Me, Words & Thoughts

This is cruelty..

Putting a fish or any living being for that matter in an environment that is way too small..

Everytime I see something like this, I ask the owner.. ‘How would you like to live in your toilet?’

Sadly, most people just go.. ‘Huh?’..

Kindness and consideration for other beings is sorely lacking in this world that we live in..

Sad, don’t you think?

Just Things

21 June, 2006 at 3:22 am · Filed under Furry Tales, Tis Me, Words & Thoughts

This was my car..

As you can see, my cats absolutely loved the car.. including the neigbourhood four legged visitors as well..

I’m glad the car pleased my four legged companions as much as it did me..

It was also through this material asset that I learned the art of detachment..

Material things.. are things..

So what if there are scratches..

They are things..

Things are meant to serve and please us humans..

Things are just.. things..

Thought For Reflection

12 June, 2006 at 3:17 am · Filed under Tis Me, Words & Thoughts

Thought for Reflection:

We can accomplish even the most difficult task when there is care within the heart, purpose in your soul and a destination in your mind..

And you will recognise excuses for what it is.. merely a weak form of justification..

Thus with the famous Nike words in mind.. Just Do It!

And so we did..

Breeding Difference

30 May, 2006 at 3:10 am · Filed under Tis Me, Words & Thoughts

There is a difference between breeding for food ie to stay alive.. and breeding strictly for money..

There would be no need to breed chickens if chickens are running around everywhere in this concrete jungle that we live in..

And if you’re into breeding for fun.. whether you earn little or you earn much, you are still earning $$ via animal trading..

The more you breed,
The more you earn..
The less you breed,
The less you earn..
Or you can be like the rest..
Breed none.. and earn none..

For there are many other ways of earning that additional $1, $100, $1000..

Animal Rescue Work

25 May, 2006 at 3:06 am · Filed under Tis Me, Words & Thoughts

Hello Everyone..

Let me tell you all this..

Animal Rescue Work is very frustrating work..

(Please bear in mind that I am writing this on behalf of MOST animal rescuers out there around the world, whether you have rescued 1 or 100..)

We give so much of ourselves.. our time, our money, our heart and soul..

It’s all about sacrifice.. and the willingness to do so..

None of us have a bottomless pocket.. For every $1 of my limited resources that I’ve spent on a stray, it’s $1 less for myself.

It’s not because we have nothing else better to do either.. We have our respective jobs and contrary to popular beliefs, we do know how to enjoy life as well..

We chose to sacrifice cos we care… cos we feel for the animals..

Do you know what frustrates us Animal Rescuers the most? ..HUMANS!!..

Ignorant humans..
Uncaring humans..
Selfish humans..
Mean humans..
etc..

So, if we sound frustrated in any way.. that’s because we ARE..

The conditions and welfare of the stray population is PATHETIC..

So sad.. but so few are willing to do anything about it..

Most just say.. “Oh, look at the poor kitty..” and walk away..

If you’re in this group, the least you could do is to help educate and not cause additional hurdles..

We all need to work together.. to help the animals..

Put your differences aside and help the ones that truly need your attention and energy..

Remember, we’re all here because of them..

Thanks, everyone..

Yours sincerely,
Su

Indifference Cripples

9 April, 2006 at 9:32 am · Filed under Tis Me, Words & Thoughts

If you do not notice the sufferings out there..

Are you blind?
Are you selfish?
Are you heartless?

If you do notice but do not care..

Why?

What does that say about you as a human being?

God equipped you with a heart and the capability to feel and care for other beings on earth..

Don’t you see?
Don’t you feel?
Don’t you care?

Only the humans have the power..

To make the world a better place on earth for all other beings..

Only humans have the power as well..

To make earth a living hell..

For all the other beings on earth..

Indifference cripples..

Natural vs Good

3 April, 2006 at 9:30 am · Filed under Tis Me, Words & Thoughts

I see it as a natural thing to do.. to help those in need..

You see it as a good thing to do.. to help those in need..

So please do forgive me if I’m unable to comprehend..

As to why you’re not doing it as well?

If you recognize it as a kind act to care for those in need..

Then why aren’t you acting upon that realisation?

Why?

Breeding Woes

30 March, 2006 at 9:24 am · Filed under CNR 1 (Internal), Tis Me, Words & Thoughts

Hello Everyone..

Just the other day, I was talking to a fellow animal lover.. and the topic of discussion was about animal breeding..

He had a ‘special’ cat that he wanted to breed..

Now, bear in mind that this friend of mine LOVES animals as well.. more than himself, I sometimes think.

He is as extreme as I am.. and rescues every animal that he sees is suffering.. often discarding any worries of financial, time and emotional issues recklessly aside..

Anyway, he had this SEVEN-toed cat, a polydactyl, that he would like to see give birth to seven-toed polydactyl kittens..

So, I told him of a time when I thought of that myself.. I have a cat that I considered very special as well. He was an all white cat with two different eye colours, one blue and the other green. He was absolutely beautiful with a great temperament to boot.

I had actually considered allowing him to mate with another beautiful female cat and was excited as to how their kittens would turn out..

But after much consideration.. I figured that if I had space for more in my home, I’d like to help the ones in need out there..

It felt wrong to participate in the creation of more lives when so many out there are suffering and homeless..

I realized that I wanted the kittens for selfish personal reasons.. and for a moment, they became potential “limited editions”..

I reasoned with my friend that, even if I found new homes for those kittens.. I would have preferred for those people to adopt animals that truly needed a home..

So, people.. whatever your reason may be to breed an animal.. please realize that there are many more out there desperately in need of your help, care and attention..

Please do not allow unnecessary or unwanted breeding to go unchecked..

Please spay and neuter your household pets..

For there simply are too many stray animals out there..

And if you own even a single un-neutered pet, YOU are partially to be blamed as well..

Too many homeless animals are suffering out there.. and you have the power to do something about it..

Every bit helps..

Think about it..
