每當我要用電腦工作，小貓都令我好苦惱，但他卻是我的一等一心肝寶貝，是2017年遇上過最好的東西（另外一件是參加了三項鐵人，包括準備的過程以及跟朋友們每一個快樂的相聚），每一天我都依然慶幸遇上了他，這個奸狡的小孩子，雖然他會跳上我的鍵盤上、咬我的手，但他仍是最獨特的小朋友，比我想像中好更多。貓兒讓我的失眠夜很安寧，讓我期待回家，讓我坐在工作桌更久，而且讓我每天都覺得很感恩遇上了他 ，是真的！
人類好矛盾，我討厭他每三秒跳上我的鍵盤一次，但當我寫完整篇blog 而他竟然無騷擾過我，我會覺得好失落！（以及極之奇怪，是否出現了什麼問題）
早前想寫關於暫託的事。聖誕節那天去當義工，又帶回了一隻狗兒回家。他們很想我幫忙暫託令一隻己被領養的狗，以前我不明白為何已被領養的狗要暫託，以為是怕他在中心易受傷或病；又或者是因為支出問題（每天都要義工照顧和食物等支出），後來才想起，是因為中心裹每一個空間都是珍貴的，要用來展示那些待領養動物或用作隔離有病的小毛孩。好多人真的會遠道而來看狗兒，而有互動的機會可以無限提高那動物被領養的機會。我真是後知後覺！
所以人們說，每暫託一隻動物，其實你救助了的不止是你暫託的那一隻，還有因為空出了的空間而受惠的另一隻動物，可能讓拯救動物機構可以收容多一隻街上的流浪狗。土地問題啊。
當然其實我們很不鼓勵人收養後要很久才能帶走，這都是些好特別的例子。
我們常打笑說，每次去當義工都會遇上一隻愛不惜手的動物，其實並不是每次都有，有點像人去買衣服，有時會看見很喜歡的但無錢買，但也有時行了很久沒有遇到喜歡的東西。這周最令我心動的是一隻傷殘teacup poodle Rosie, 你可能問，怎麼今天介紹的又是一隻非法繁殖場丟出來的狗。 的確，就是有這麼多狗兒被「用」作生產小狗後，當她們身體不能再生更多小狗後就被丟掉，就像一件垃圾般。 小rosie 就是其中一個經歷這樣不幸的媽媽，Rosie的前腳因長期在小籠裹坐着而永久變形了（也可能是在繁殖場時曾被打傷）她有最漂亮的小臉和很溫柔的性格，但總是沒有人看上她，什至去看她，Sheila 說她的殘疾可能讓她好難被人選中，真的是這樣嗎？
畫好了三幅畫，還有好多好多在排隊，天未光，最適合畫畫了！
About Fostering:
I finally understood the real reason why dogs need to be fostered in the RARE occasion that they are adopted but not ready to be picked up yet. I initially thought it's because of the daily food and pet sitting financial burden on the charity or the risk that they get sick or hurt in the shelter, but then suddenly realise that it's because each space in the adoption centre is precious to display animals, so that potential adopters that come all the way to see them in person can interact with them - which of course is the best way of increasing their chances to be adopted, I'm so 後知後覺That's why they say - Every animal you foster, You are actually helping two, the one you're fostering, And also the extra space you create that allows another animal to be rescued and taken in. After all 土地問題 is real in this city :p
About Rosie: *MEET THE SWEETEST TEENY WEENY ROSIE, an ex breeder teacup poodle* Yes you may wonder, ANOTHER ex-breeder doggie? Yes, we often wonder about that too, but guess that's where the puppies in the pet shops comes from... and the mom? they got chucked out like a piece of rubbish when they cannot make more babies. Rosie is one of them, sadly dogs are really smart animals, and they suffer not just physically but also mentally from being "Used" and "caged" all their lives, the wonderful thing is, once you give them love and a home, they become another dog! Rosie is a sweet heart, one of her legs is permanently deformed likely because she was caged for too long, or could also be that she was abused and beaten to the current state. Yes, she might be "disabled" and walk with a limp but she is a beautiful, happy, sweet girl who would give you many kisses.
