Awwwww!

February 23rd, 2009

‘Ultimate Awww Factor. Take an armful of tiny kittens and place them on top of the latest in home cleaning robots, and you get a sugar rush that will drag a ten-minute “Awwwww” out of you.’

I’ve been meaning to upload the videos that I took with my phone. One of them is of Winnie, ehem, cleaning himself. I assure you that Winnie didn’t ‘perform’ on my hand. I’ve trained him so that he doesn’t play with my hand anymore. A quick warning, the content of this video might be a bit offensive and can’t be viewed by immature chinnies

Exotic Animals Become Drug Dealers Prey

February 9th, 2009

I saw this video news & it made me angry! It’s about Mexican drug cartels that use exotic animals, such as lions, monkeys, tarantulas, and birds, to transport drugs across borders – US & China as being the 2 largest markets for these illegal animals. It’s been rumored that rivals of the drug cartels have been thrown into lions for food. These animals can cost up to $90,000 and they are symbols of wealth. It’s simply not fair for these animals who have been taken away from their natural habitats for the furtherance of human greed & ego.

Tubby Peed on Me!

February 2nd, 2009

Yes he did!

I was cleaning the bottom shelf of Tubby’s cage with Tubby still on the upper shelf when I started feeling something warm trickling down my forehead … Tubby had peed on me!

It was gross! I had to wash my hair for the second time today.

Nevertheless, I still love Tubby
