Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
Wow, collected RM400. You know, Andy, I forgot completely that the games were "chargeable" and so declined playing the Photo Hunt game, thinking I was being noble by letting others have a chance at it. Oh dear! I'm so, so sorry for not taking up on your offer to play the Photo Hunt game. *slapping myself*
I have a love-hate for the Afghan Hound. It has killed THREE cats, huhuhuhuh... . But I still love it because it's so beautiful. I hope that doesn't mean I condone it killing cats??

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
An Afghan hound is a hunter, or at least, that was what Yen explained to me. So it's just his instinct, like how our cats might kill a tikus or bird if they see one.

Haha, no worries Blackie... you've already done a noble deed by attending the event and giving support to the homeless animals! Saw you chatting away happily with Cazzy... hope you enjoyed yourself at the event!
Oh, and nice pics of the sausage-eating contest at your blog too!

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
hehe, Andy, I really enjoyed myself, especially watching the contestants munch away in the sausage-eating contest. Too bad the human contestants weren't more aggressive in eating their buns like their 4-legged companions, eh?
maybe next time u can have their hands tied behind their backs and have them bend down and eat with just their mouths like their furry companions....hahahaha.
Yup, I was about to leave when Cazz arrived. Cazzy and I were supposed to meet at the Mamma Mia premiere screening, but we missed each other so yesterday was great that we finally got to meet.
P/S: Thanks for the compliments on photos.

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
Hi Andy and spca and paws and all volunteers
congratulations for successfully pulling it of. from all accounts, it was a great success. i heard so much about it from my friends, even my sisters' colleague who attended.
sorry i missed it due to a recurring foot injury. really wished i was there.
am suprised and yet happy to hear that sea park pet supplies was on of the sponsors of the gift. i didn't know they sponsor the gift. they are great people. so is abco asia too. hope that many members took advantage of the discount to buy some BC for their furkids.
just to share - don't mean to be negative but i feel that as in all organised events, there's bound to be some good feedback as well as not so good feedback and the not so good feedback will provide more info for better improvement for future events.
do you know that the Star Wars 501st Legion was "staffed" by one of my sis' colleagues and his friends? they volunteered to rent the costumes and offer photos for a token sum - all collected monies to be donated so SPCA and PAWs. it was a great hit and success with the public. according to my sis' colleague many members of the public clamoured and even insisted for their photos to be taken but - apparently there was a misunderstanding among the greater part of the public on that day or maybe due to lack of information - whatever it was, quite a number of the public refused to pay for the photos after having their pictures taken. maybe this was due to communication breakdown or just not enough information being given out .
nevertheless the star wars stormtroopers were glad to be of help that day. and needless to say they were all animal lovers,
as is all members of the public who supported the event and spca and paws wholeheartedly, including petfinders.my members who worked at the scene as well as behind the scenes.
kudos, give yourself a clap on the back for a task well done

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
Hi Blackie, haha yeah, the humans were eating a bit too slowly, probably looking after their "civilized" image as opposed to the dogs that just chow away excitedly to their stomach's grumbles hahaha...
Ashley, thanks for your compliments. Yeah, in such events there are tons of logistical issues to take care of, and SPCA has done extremely well in ensuring that things went smoothly. I'm sure they'll learn from this experience and make it an even more successful one in the future.
DIMB - the photos are really nice, especially the JRT at the tower... reminds me of Disney's Underdog movie hahaha...

Wow, DIMB, very nice pics of Groovy from your friend. He looks like a human celebrity, posing away for the camera.
I'm not so good with dog breeds....only know a few....but is Groovy a Jack Russell? Looks like one to me.

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
DIMB, it looks very fit. Not surprised it's agile. Saw it jumped onto the owner's head that day!! But I think it's smaller & lighter than my cat Blackie laa....
Eh, is it a Jack Russell?

Speaking of jumping. I remember at that day, there was an event when a trained German Shepard dog was going to leap ontop the stage and attack the guy on stage. but because it is raining and the floor was wet, the dog ran very fast and slipped and fell down rolling before reaching the stage, then second try ran again very fast and jumped real high, and hit the wall real hard, BOOM!!, and fell. At that time I was like thinking " apalah ini... ".... end up the trainer remove the blokeage on the strairs and the dog walked up the stairs to reach the guy on stage. funny expreince. never will forget that real hard hit/slam on the wall, hope the dog dont have internal injuries. hehe. The show Would have been awsome success if there is no rain.

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
Oh yes, I remember this German Shepard, Bell. But I thot it was an Alsatian. hehe...shows my lack of knowledge when it comes to dogs. Can tell u all about cats, but dumb when it comes to dogs.
I was feeling so anxious for the dog, too. I was thinking, oh no, oh no. I also hope the dog did not suffer any internal or minor injuries. It looked so brave, not giving up and trying again.
