In memory of...

Roberto playing cute and lazy

A message from Ah Tee Lei (my sarawakian friend who is now residing in Kuching…he just moved from Penang to Kuching in May 2008)...”Bad news, Roberto mati”….I received this at 10:20 am…couple of minutes ago..and these were some of the text messages flying from Kuching-Penang..

Wel: Mati?mesti pasal minum red bull ni kan? (Last week he texted me saying he was drunk until the next day after he drank beer mixed with red-bull energy drinker...)
Ah Tee Lei: Nda la ba. Tiba2 jak mati dalam kuarantin
Wel: Ya kan.masih dalam kuarantin pula.Ada insurance kan.Claim
Ah Tee Lei: Odoh.tgh sedih ni.Nda tpikir mo claim.

Why was he (Roberto) left in a quarantine room? It’s a procedure to for any animal being transported from one destination to another destination...I’m not really sure myself though, I have never tried transporting any animal…so when Ah Tee Lei was moving all his belongings in May from Penang to Kuching…apparently, Roberto had just received his vaccination…as far as I can remember, Ah Tee Lei told me that it was a month earlier…I’m not sure either how long was Roberto needs to be quarantined but it has just ended recently..I feel sorry for you Ah Tee Lei..I know you've take care of him and I'm sure you love him as if he was your own son....you should be sad...

Who is Roberto? He’s a cat and was a very shy cat...as seen in the pictures, his colour is almost similar to the Garfield huh…well, I don’t really know what type of cat he was...I took this pictures from Ah Tee Lei’s friendster account….and I realized these pictures were taken earlier before he got fat…and lazy...ha.ha...hari hari makan ikan kembung... I feel sorry for Ah Tee Lei…it’s quite saddening when he had to leave his beloved pet in a quarantine room hoping he would be alright and safe….I don’t know how bad he would take this sad event but I hope Roberto’s soul may rest in a peaceful place for cats…and Ah Tee Lei would not make any stupid action…who knows, he might get angry with the quarantine officers and burn the whole building – hope not…the whole time I knew Roberto, I never got the chance to touch him tau…penakut and pemalu ba ni kucing…but I do like him..

Another pet’s event…we had a dog called Biggy...I posted about him months ago when he was raped as well as raping another male dog…Thursday evening, I came home from work and went up to my room…I didn’t realize at first but when I went down to the kitchen….there was no sign of him…I called his name but he was no where to be seen…the gate was not opened and if he wanted to go out, he could have done it earlier… I then decided to give it a time...he might wandering around and for sure he will come home once he’s tired…to my surprise, at night Mr. Jew told me that Biggy was not there…as usual, he was to feed the dog but he couldn’t find where the dog was…since he hasn’t come back…I thought he might be abducted…I’ve never had a dog who would runaway and would never return home…he must be abducted!!…the next day, it was the same…he is no where to be seen until this moment…we lost another resident of our house…I haven’t had a word with the neighbour behind us...they would sometimes fed the dog. They might have an idea where is he whereabouts or have seen something…it is really weird when the dog is no where to be seen within the housing area as well…kalau di sabah…possibility kana tangkap Om untuk makan buli terima la...but who would abduct him here?
