Pets' Showtime!

Two Charities to Help Stray Animals
You'd Not Wanna Miss!

Due to recent incidences in regards to cruelty to animals, some very kind souls have responded by organising events to raise funds and awareness to the public. I am encouraging everyone to attend and show your support for the poor animals. This is only a small step but I am sure you are going to enjoy every minute of it.

1)Operafest's One Bow Wow, One Heart

A charity concert organised by the Operafest Children's choir. Its founder and artistic director
is none other than the Internationally known Kam Sun-Yoke. The theme for tonite's
show is based on one of my favourite Oldies by Richard Rodgers & Oscar Hammerstein's
"South Pacific" The movie version was shot on location in Pulau Tioman in Full 70mm.
The funds raised would be for Madam Kang's Animal Sanctuary in Taiping, Perak and the FFF
Furry Friends Farm in Kundang, Selangor. Mrs. Kam added that the main purpose is to teach
children to be kind to pets. Way to go, Mrs Kam! A big Thank You!

2) R.A.V.E.2SAVE
As already mentioned on my earlier blog, this fun and exciting event would also be very interesting especially to the young at hearts and would be adults soon.Thanks again KDU!

So there you are, this weekend is going to be enjoyable and full of fun for everybody.

Pet Adoption

Niamahfulat!
Ok, I received an email about the coming RAVE2SAVE fund raising programme by Kollege Damansara Utama (KDU) in Petaling Jaya on the 25th. July.

My heartiest appreciation to KDU for organising such event to help save and support rescued pets.

Yes, even though it was clearly stated that all proceeds would go to a big ORG in Ampang, a mis-communication took place. They have also invited another pet rescue group to take part which this group fully agreed to bring along 50 rescued puppies and to be given free to good homes.
Free, it would mean getting it free of charge after taking all necessary particulars and promise that the pup would get good care, food and plenty of love.
The big ORG is not giving any pups or rescued dogs free. One must pay for a rescued animal!

Why is that so?

Go to Malaysian Dogs Deserves Better. website to see their reasoning.

Niamahfulat! (again) Do any of us really know the realities of our today's economic situation?

With so much going on, such as the H1N1 flu, forth coming increase of household electricity, increased bus and taxi fares, food prices....etc, many would now be very sensitive about spending.
Mentally, an average family also have to worry about security and the current political on goings which is the main concern of trying to be 'sane' everyday.

I must admit that the last thing on people mind nowadays, is charity and doing good.

I was told off, just two days ago that many are very concerned about their daily survival and this family gave me a good ticking off about saving strays, be it dogs or cats. So where do these poor animals go to? Monetary support from the public are getting scare.

Just why can't this big ORG accepts the 50 rescued pups and work hand-in-hand with other rescue groups who eventually share the same good line of thought? There are also plenty more
where-it-came-from, as estimates of stray animals runs into thousands?

By the way, Dr Chan Kah Yein's Inti College programme came off beautifully because young adults are being taught to love all animals. We need to start them young to solve the problems of strays. Importantly, they should not be told (politically) where not to get/buy rescued pets.
By doing so, it look like the big ORG is already teaching these young adults the fundamental of politics!!!!

This was how the problem of strays happened in the first place!

Really Fulat!
