SELECTED POSTS

This page, NEWS & UPDATES which is actually the index page of this website has grown into a huge database of my almost daily ramblings of all stuff I hold dear to my heart, including gossips of the most sordid kind.

The list itself may be long but those selected few are the ones I thought drives home the point I wanted to make. Do check them out in MY POINT IS [Comments & Opinions].


SERIES' SUMMARIES

Sometime in 2004 I began reviewing selected series in an episode by episode way, where I called these reviews EPISODIC THOUGHTS. These thoughts are mostly summaries of each and every episode with my opinion of that episode included in it as well. I may not provide the most in depth summaries but I am very proud of the fact that I could keep the writing on such a long winded basis each and every night for the entirety of the series. I don't do this for each and every series though because it kills a lot of brain cells, mine as well as fellow netizens who often joined in the discussion by posting informative stuff. These thoughts are still open for feedback and discussion. Do check them all out in REVIEWS where it is indicated with an  [E] next to my name.

Saddest Looking Dog In The World 
Permanent link Post a Comment

And perhaps the most pitiful one to have been highlighted by our local newspaper The Star (and the Malay Mail) in today's copy. The headline should have been "RM100-00 To Do What You Want With A Dog!". Whilst I am not an animal lover nor do I believe in animal rights being equal or higher than that of human rights, this report had me stunned, shocked and sick to the bones that someone could be so heartless to a defenseless animal. The excuse? She was old and sickly anyway. If I were the Magistrate I would have given him max sentence and add that with whipping but there's no whipping for animal abuse. The Malay Mail was more clear on why the dog suffered; the owner was systematically starving the poor dog to death. I was thinking if that was the best excuse he could give, then someone should give him the same treatment when he is old and sickly. I can't imagine if this was an old and sick person, will he do the same to that poor person?

When I looked at this dog (she has been put to sleep because there was nothing the vet can do for her anymore except to shorten her misery), I saw in her eyes pain and misery. I felt like crying because this dog had the saddest look I have ever seen in anyone, more so a dog. And this man was a chinese professional. I feel so ashamed for him but I doubt he feels the same. RM100-00 is not a just punishment.

A person with compassion will never do this, and this shows there isn't an ounce of compassion in the person who did this to this poor dog. And someone without compassion even for the defenseless should not deserve to live. I am not advocating death penalty for people who clearly abuse their pets but I am saying, in fact I am shouting RM100-00 fine in lieu of a few months jail is never the just punishment.

In The Malay Mail, it had highlighted several pets abuse cases but one of which was confusing. A person was said to neglect the animals if they let in the strays into their homes and feed them! What is this man?

Anyway those who loves their pets, please read with one caution in mind; you will never forget the dog's face once you have seen the whole article. Click on the thumbnail ... I know sometimes you may be too busy to take care of your pets, sometimes you're angry with them for dirtying the place but to do what this man did is not neglect; it is systematic clear cut abuse only those without a shred of humanity will do. if you meet someone who can't treat their pets right, question them if they will treat those who loves him right. A dog gives unconditional love and I think it is only fair we show them the same courtesy. If we can't do that, give them away or put them to sleep sooner than torturing them like this and only then put them to sleep. Hug your pets tonight dear friends. I am just too upset.

I'm not clicking on that thumbnail, can't bear to even take a glance. How can people do that? Systematically starving the dog to death??? What difference does that make that owner from a Nazi or Hitler for that matter who systematically kills Jews by torturing them into slow and painful deaths? What more a dog which trusted in you to take care of it and provide it with love?

I've said this many times in my blog but I'm gonna say it again (and again and again for as long as it takes): Animal abusers should be condemned to hell.

News like this always gets me upset and worked up... =(

Can't read the article. Image too unclear.

I think that man should be fined at least RM10,000 or mandatory jail time as a warning to the animal abusers.

If u can't take care of your pet, don't adopt one.

Is it really true that letting stray animals into one's house and feeding them is considered neglect? How is that a neglect?

Funn, the other pic on the cover of Malay Mail is even haunting.

The poor dog look like as if she's crying...

Despite being a kynophobia, I still think that man deserved more punishment than one hundred bucks.

Hi there everyone...

I was shouting all the 4 letters words that I know off when I read the penality was a merely RM100 and what a lame excuse.. he is busy.. Gosh.. is he human at all... He sees his dog everyday yet he got no time... It should have been a hasher punishment.. maybe do charity work for the animal shelter or spend a week in jail.. Gosh I getting uptight about this...

Pearl, you have got to click on that link because the article never said systematically but that's how I read it. YOU ALL wanna know a joke" Today's paper said this guy is a registered member of some National Kennel Society or something like that!

Kidd, you can double click on that image itself and the full size will reveal. I deliberately scanned it to make it clear enough to read. I think they're amending the law but still it is up to the Magistrate isn't it?

Sehseh, what is kynophobia?
