kids and dogs don match...
today went to pasir ris farmway to shop for goldfish. not me, but dad, who wants to get two replacement for the two that died not long ago. whew! didnt know that paris ris farm was a mini 'tourist' attraction on weekends! saw so many cars! finished picking up the goldfishes very quickly. but we ended up with three instead of two... the aquarium sure keeps a lot of exotic fish thou. and all of them were humungous! i can only wish that the white palomino we are keeping will NOT grow to that big. its horrifying. after completing the purchase we went to see the puppies on sale there. oh my god, all of them were soooo cute! especially LOVE the sleeping spitz (i think sooo). but i saw a very sad scene at the pet farm : parents purchasing a puppy for their three young children. of course, there should be absolutely no fault in buying a pet, but that is provided u know how to care for them! oh, those kids! the oldest girl was practically pulling the jack russell puppy on its lead, not leading it. the puppy was scared, i think. when the family wanted to get into their car, the puppy refused. the mother didnt even bother to carry the puppy up. in the end the girl gingerly carried the puppy into the car. feel so sad for the puppy. now he have to deal with three noisy kids who are going to treat him like a toy, a maid who's scare of him PLUS parents who didnt care a damn. chances are this puppy going to die or been abandon. or if its lucky the maid will be its owner instead. it just break my heart to think that the puppy will most probably be growing up very confused. of course, when the dog bites to defend himself, off he goes to the spca. hai~ don those parents have ANY mind of their own instead of giving in to their children's pleas? i feel very frighten when i hear those little kids asking their parents to buy a puppy for them. when will it drilled into their heads that A PUPPY IS NOT A TOY? sick. and what irresponisble parents! maybe i'm getting a little agitated. but parents should know that their kids won be able to take care of a puppy themselves. and those irresponsible pet shop PEOPLE! why did they still sell the puppy when they know the family don have the ability to take care of it? guess they are more concerned about the money. yucks.
then pl found me a part time job in the zoo! sounds fun. but the problem is i dunno how to get to the zoo?
