years ago, before i had my first dog, we used to take care of cats who wandered into our home. we named them grandma prunes, rotten, nutsie, jacket, rikitikitabby and ming ming. after seeing this adoption site, i’m starting to miss having kitties at home, even tempted to adopt some.
unfortunately, my dogs are rather hostile towards any small moving animals. last week, a rooster got into the compound while i was opening the garage for the car. i never really saw if it went out after the gate closed. the following morning, i saw ruffled feathers scattered near the gate and the maid told me that the dogs ganged up on a rooster. it was attempting to fly over the gate, but it couldn’t get high enough because its wings were modified for cockfights.
the rooster was barely alive, breathing heavily and very wet with dog drool when the owner claimed it. it wasn’t our fault our dogs attacked their poor rooster, he should’ve tied it to the tree. days later, i learned that they cooked it for tinola since it can’t fight anymore.
poor chicken.

yup. we named it after a storybook cat character named rikitikitabby. unfortunately, our own tikitabby was killed by the neighbor’s smelly sharpei.
sayang, it’s got the bluest eyes and cleanest fluffy fur Y_Y
