Not a nice day


I think two years ago, I narrated the story about Coco & Brandy’s brother who was killed by my own cat right in front of me. This day hasn’t been any different. Though no one has been killed & thank God for that, but a dog we have been giving food to…went through hell as she’s got nine puppies & some crazy people in this area are all against the very existence of cats & dogs. 

This is the picture of those puppies. As you can clearly see they are very young. They are all very sweet & friendly. But you won't believe it, they were thrown in a bag by an asshole. Somehow my brother found them again after inquiring from here & there. 

Right now they have been shifted along with their mother to a safe place...my mom was crying like hell as she didn't want Julie (the name of the mother dog) to go some place else, but here people have been bothering the mother & puppies like anything. They even killed 4 puppies of some other dog a week ago. We just didn’t have any other option.

I was just telling a friend that all these men gather for prayers & this is what they talk about. My brother had an argument with one such creature, but the fact is...you can't change their mentality. They believe dogs are impure & even 2 weeks old puppies could bite them. And I have scribbled a number of times that I live in a posh area where they shoot stray dogs every now & then. As if those crazy DHA people are not enough! 

No where it is written that you should kill the creatures of God as you have created myths about them. And what hypocrites are these people, they go for prayers & this is what they think & talk about. And later on, they throw puppies & kittens in bags. I believe when you pray to God, He shows you the right path. What kind of people are these? Prayers have no effect on them whatsoever. 

Although my brother has posted their pics on some sites, but I have my doubts if anyone will adopt stray puppies. People are only interested in special breeds. In fact they all ask for special breeds whenever they want to adopt...that has been my experience & they believe I could get one for them free of cost. Do I even seem to be the kind of person who will have anything to do with this kind of hideous business of selling cats & dogs? In all these years, no one has ever wanted to adopt any stray puppy or kitten. They may say so at a point, but later on, they come up with some excuse. 

I can never forget Lara. He was a stray puppy I was friends with. He was only four months old & suddenly he disappeared. He didn’t let anyone touch him. Only my brother & I could pet him. Anyhow, he had an accident, but for four days while I was inquiring about him, I thought someone had thrown him. I’m suspicious by nature, naturally when I’m down, I imagine all sorts of stories & I don’t trust even my best people at that time & no one can put sense in my head. Those were the worst days of my life & even to this day, every time I look at the gate, I just think about him as he used to wait for me. I tried to convince my family to adopt him, but somehow I couldn’t succeed. Everyone was like, ‘Lara is really smart. He can take care of himself.’ 

Actually my dog Caesar is Lara’s brother. He had an accident when he was just two months old. He was hit on the head & even the vet thought he would not survive. Despite all the odds, he made it. And after taking care of him for a month, my family decided to adopt him. That’s how I became friends with Lara. 

As much as I want to, I know I can’t help each & every kitten & puppy. We did talk to a couple of organizations, but they were just not willing to build animal shelter in Pakistan. I don’t want to repeat the crap as I once wrote it on the blog. 

I know we will be visiting Julie & her puppies, as we aren’t the kind of people who abandon their friends in need. But I wish there was a better alternative. However, we live in a place where humans kill their own infants & dump them. What else can we expect of this sick society! Here we can’t make them see that animals too have feelings & they also get hurt. 

I'm not a very religious person. Actually I'm a psychic & whenever I pray regularly, I start getting visions & dreams that I have problem in handling. My grandmother too had spiritual powers & she was the hot favourite of many people, but I'm not the right person I guess for this gift or bane or whatever. Anyhow, I have been praying for the safety of Julie & her babies. Maybe it was better to shift them to another place, because people in this posh area cannot be trusted.
