Pikachu is HOME!!

Alhamdulillah...finally got the naughty baby home. Was trying to get him right until I had to go to Singapore for Wirza's wedding. Of course at that time I had no idea we'd be losing Pikachu, so I stayed 3 days for a mini holiday. On Monday and Tuesday morning he didn't show up when I called and honestly, I was already really late for work. So no idea who actually ate the food I left.

Last night, I saw him lounging ON a car near the dumpster. When I approached (again, leaving my groceries and handbag at random locations while chasing after the cat), he was hungry enough to come close. I had no food on me, so I just grabbed him. Thank God he didn't fight me! He did struggle a bit when I opened the boot so I shut him in the car while i assembled the cage. Thank God I kept it in the boot just in case!!

After a bit of coaxing, he calmed down enough for me to stuff him in the cage and bring him upstairs.

At first he was very blur, didn't know where he was. Didn't want to eat his food. Leo was hostile and he was hostile to Michelle. Seriously? Do you have something against female cats?? 

When K Ayu came back, she gave him 'his' blankie, he calmed down and started eating. Soon he was feeling much more comfortable; enjoyed the cuddling and loving he got...

When a cat is stretched out like THIS, it's obvious that he knows he's in a safe place and can really relax... Last night he was still a little restless, going in and out of the room. Aku yang tak lena tidur. This morning K Ayu gave him a much needed bath. He was so dirty he left paw prints on my white T-shirt. Sigh... 

At least he's home now, and we can plan to pindah in peace. I won't be going up and down chasing after a cat. I'm sure the Permai people already branded me as mereng by now :P Sabar ajelah... Will pamper him a little so that he'll regain some weight. He's so scrawny, with some luka on his neck. I'll bet he'll appreciate not having to scrounge the garbage bin and fight for food with Abu or the dogs anymore. I can rest assured that he's not getting wet or hiding in some longkang if it rains heavily as it does often now... 

Syukur sangat2 that he's home. Nakal macam mana pun, I really tak sampai hati tengok dia merempat the past few weeks. And God knows how he survived the 6 weeks before we found him. Welcome home, sayang.... Saranghae....

The Final Push

Dah lebih sebulan dah duit dapat, tak setel2 lagi dengan bank... frust betul!! Baru ni I tak sabar call the vendor's lawyer, baru dapat maklumat terkini. Abang nak senang suruh tunggu aje. sampai bila nak tunggu? Dah 9 bulan dah. kalau mengandung dah beranak pun!

Semalam dah jenguk rumah and ambik measurements, rasa ok la sikit. I have a clearer picture about the house. terjawab la semua soalan2 yg dok terbayang dalam kepala, boleh la nak plan sikit. Banyak benda nak plan. Nak mintak quotations pun nak kena buat measurements dulu.

Then nak keluar duit KWSP pun makan masa... Banyak yang nak dibayarnya nanti. Perabut seribu sana, seribu sini, takut tak cukup jer RM20,000. My bathroom pun tak sure lagi nak buat macam mana. nasib baik tile K Ayu elok lagi, x payah tukar. Maybe nak tukar cistern macam kat permai kot, not sure. Taps boleh cari yang murah2 kat ACE Hardware pun boleh tahan jugak selection dia. Cat lagi...

Ni dah November, I told En Rosdi I'll move by end of the year. Kalau boleh I nak masuk before Christmas la. But there'll be lots of prep to do beforehand, so I need the time. New year nanti sure busy. PMM & PSC will be in December, so will not be very free.

Did I mention that we lost Pikachu sometime in September? Dah la masa tu I busy gila dengan the River Carnival... Cari punya cari, rupanya cari in the wrong places. After 6 weeks, tetiba dia muncul kat dumpster depan. Ya Rabbi.... Pulak tu dah merajuk takmo balik. so far dah lebih seminggu I dok pujuk dia hari2 bawakkan makanan. bila dia jual mahal, aku pun buat dono. pagi tadi alhamdulillah I boleh usap dia sikit. While I pergi ambik cage, dia dah main cak-cak i.e. lari2 again. Jeez! dah la time orang nak pergi kerja!!

Will have to keep feeding and pujuking him sampai dia mau bagi I bawak dia balik. Si Oleo pun dah meragam takmo makan. Either dia rindu Pikachu or dia takde gigi!! Sabar ajelah aku dok melayan kerenah 'anak-anak' aku ni. But without Pikachu, Michelle and Trina manja sikit, can lepak on my bed without being bullied off. Dilema kan... Hope I can bring him home soon. Nowadays hari2 hujan, tak sampai hati mengingat si budak nakal tu duduk kat bawah kesejukan, berlindung entah kat mana, makan sampah... Sedih memikirkannya.

Tapi aku teringat pulak yang a few days before he disappeared, aku bedal dia kaw-kaw pasal cari gaduh dengan Michelle... Perangai dia teruk sangat time tu, dia attack Michelle sungguh2. Kalau Leo cuma intimidate aje. Pulak kalau ada 2 ekor jantan kuning ni, menjadi2 pulak perangai depa. Patut sangat la dia takut tengok aku!

Tapi tu la, kan... 'mak' kucing pun sayang 'anak'.... Marah2 pun, tak sanggup tengok menatang yang dia bela tu kurus kering merempat kat parking lot. He'd better follow me home before we move house though... Dah babai karang lagi susah.
