Degraded humans

I read in today's paper that someone is claiming that a dog leaves more carbon footprint that a human driving a car. How shameless! Humans have degraded to turning to blame a helpless community for climate changes, rather than reflecting on their own actions. The article claimed that manufacturing of dog food involves huge amounts of meat and so on. And of course, they repeated the same thing on cats and hamsters.

In the first place, how many dog owners really feed their pets with high meat content pet food? Look at your pet food's ingredient list. Is meat anywhere at the top? If we think of how many dogs can feed on the left overs at buffets and banquets, or even hawker centres, tell me, how valid is the finding in the papers.

Selfish humans.

Rest in peace, My Apple

APPLE 
(Passed away: 16th March 2009 13:29pm)
當天於你共度歡樂時光
當晚陪你捱過失眠夜晚
失去的時光無從尋回
開口一汪 喚回所有於你的美好回憶
講不出聲 講不出聲
任由自己 於淚共枕
不忍心送別你 但卻無奈送走你
誰能怪我 曾經真心 愛過你

In case anyone thinks that this is a pun involving my macbook and my dog, I am really talking about the latter.

My heart drips blood as I type. Apple passed away yesterday morning. Now, I could no longer type "Rose, Apple & Daisy, and Nini the cat". Apple contracted a rare virus that invaded her nervous system(not yet the neuro for she still looks at me with emotions), causing paralysis and locked jaw. I hate myself for being angry at her 2 days ago when she refused to eat the meat that I brought to her front, I hate myself for scolding her "HOW TO GET WELL IF YOU DO NOT EAT?!". All the more I hate myself, when I recalled Apple waving her tail at me 2 days ago and yesterday morning, despite her paralysis.

I vividly remember bathing her feverish body 2 days ago because she got stuck under a forklift and got herself dirty. I shall remember the final meal of glucose porridge, that I cooked for her before sending her on the Pet Taxi, to her death at the hospital.

My hands are trembling as I typed till here.

Apple, please forgive me, I still and will forever love you.

p.s. Fiddle died yesterday evening. May your spirit find peace too.
