Noona: Run Kakak Run, Run At The Rainbow Bridge

ohoii blog,

abang nak cerita sikit pasal Noona, the persian cat yang abang foster, rescued by kawan abang. nama asal noona adalah goldie sebab warna dia macam emas emas tapi agak kusam dan kepam lah. kesian dia. i think masa first jumpa untuk ambil noona was around 21st of october hari ahad. kawan abang nih ada 2 ekor anjing yang dia rescue dan terus dia adopt sekali. kemudian dia pun ada few cats yang tak berapa nak friendly kut dengan kucing2 yang lain. kawan abang bawak anjing dia pi jalan jalan sekali tuh jumpa noona (kat area bangsar). noona ni berkeliaran kat tepi jalan sangat jinak dan macam tak takut pun dengan anjing. so conclusionnya ini mesti orang punya. abang suspect noona lari dari rumah. tapi kawan abang dah tanya orang kat kawasan sekeliling tak ada pulak yang cakap mereka hilang persian. huii abang kalau hilang persian mahu menangis dik. harga sekor bukannya murah. for at least i will make a shout out jat my FB and let kawan kawan spread the news. mungkin jugak orang buang. tapi sapa yang nak buang persian cat dik? beli mahal kut. so kitorang tak larat dah nak speculate abang pun bawak balik noona. abang sempat la melantak kat mahboob. the following day baru lah abang dapat bawak dia pergi ke vet. masa bawak noona balik naik kereta, dia mmg macam dah biasa duduk dalam kereta. kejap2 dia berdiri tgk kat luar tingkap lepas tuh duduk mengsebok kat dashboard. sekali dia kirai bulu ha rasa nak tercabut jer kerongkong abang terbersin. bau dia kan. agak la hazab sebab jumpa pun ntah berapa hari lah dia jadik stray. nampak macam gemuk lah tapi sebenarnya kurus kering sebab bulu jer lebat.

1st Vet Visit: 22/10/12, UPM Vet Hosp dengan kos MYR 94.60

 ini first time kakak (noona dalam bahasa korea adalah kakak) ke vet dan abang bawak dia pergi vet UPM. abang pergi pagi sebab biasalah hopital kerajaan nih mmg la agak murah tapi hazab la lambat nak menunggunya. manusia ker, bintang ker bila masuk jer hospital kerajaan mmg semua nya lambat. haha ha. mana abang tahu dik? speku kah? no lah abang biasa hantar mak abang pergi hospital. tapikan ada la mulut2 puaka yang kata abang selalu lebihkan kucing dari mak abang sendiri. ok lah these perempuan puaka, i may be an anak derhaka but i am not an anak tak bertanggungjawab. keji kan perangai orang yang suka mencari kesalahan anak orang lain. dr yang rawak kakak adalah dr yang sama rawat wawal. so i have to be firmed and a bit aggressive bila tanya soalan. kena tanya betul2 dan confirmkan dengan dia. biasalah kalau kita bagitahu yang kucing nih kucing rescue doc ada yang ambil ringan. so biasanya abang bantai la cakap english yang ber-eksyen sikit to ensure yang kita nih bukan cikai. that trick plays well everytime. so kalau adik2 yang pergi vet kerajaan sila la guna pendekatan yang sama. else kucing korang ada yang jadik bahan experiment nanti.

akibat pember-belagakan abang yang always macam bagus (bak kata perempuan puaka tuh lah) maka abang dapat la sebeban ubat untuk noona. astagafirullahhhh terkexina abang tgk ubat2an tuh. macam mana lah abang nak bagi makan kat si noona yang bermuka penyek nih. i showed the doctor kakak's poo and the doc said kakak ada diarrhea yang agak teruk. abang pun tak tahu dia cirit berit dik. so all in all kakak bagged out ubat cirit, ubat kurap, dan macam macam antibiotic dia dapat. abang rasa macam tak puas hati sangat dan cuba untuk dapatkan second opinion dari vet lain sebab kat upm nih derang tak suggest pulak untuk buat blood test or pathology. rasa macam tak puas hati. so abang contact kawan abang yang rescuer/fosterer jugak untuk tolong abang bawak kan kakak ke healing room di subang sana. abang tak tahu la mana tempat tuh. kalau abang yang pergi agaknya alih2 abang dah sampai ke ipoh pulak. abang kan always sesat lagi menyesatkan koh koh koh. *mind you, i will do the same kalau mak abang masuk hospital. i will never sit and whine. i always do my research and homework before i speak to any doctor so that they know i am not someone they can treat lightly*.

kakak was said to have straying at the street for almost a week or slightly longer than that. the average healthy persian should weigh around 3kg and kakak's weight was 2.1kg. tak banyak jatuh tapi penurunan yang agak tremendous. genital area dia pun sebenarnya membengkak and therefore doc conclude yang noona was a victim of a backyard breeder. she could no longger produce litters so she was dumped at the street.

2nd Vet Visit: 23/10/12 Healing Room dengan kos MYR 378

kakak went to healing room vet clinic. kat situ doc  tak bagi apa apa ubat pun tapi buat extensive check up on her blood and physique. results nya kakak tak der FIP, FIV or FILV tapi dia punya kidney sebelah besar. mungkin sebab dia makan ntah apa apa maka sebab tuh ada inflamation kat buah pinggang dia. abang mintak kakak di shave sebab bulu dia matted penuh dengan fleas and ticks.

so vet assistant pun meng-trim kakak dengan lion hair cut! pheewit! kakak was so sweet. she was so adorable. it was a mistake the owner abandoned her. i was a mistake the breeder to dump her at the road side. she cannot fend herself let alone to find food at the dumpster. persians are know to be a lazy breed. they are born to be pampered and we the owner have to serve them. 2 doctors attended kakak and HR (healing room) only charged us less than 400 ringgit. kalau kat vet tamak mesti kitaorang dah kena gulai.

sebelah nih gambar kaka lepas dia kena trim. comel kan dia? i bought a t-shirt for her sebab lepas trim bulu, kakak dah togel. she must be sejuk and to prevent flu too. at first she didnt like to wear the baju but not long after that she was ok with that idea. ha ha ha.

3rd Vet Visit: 28/10/12 Klinik Haiwan PD dengan cost MYR 93

on  sunday, abang bawak kakak pergi ke KHPD. doctor kat situ lebih friendlier dan abang boleh tanya banyak benda. ubat yang upm bagi dah habis termasuk lah antibiotic. kemudian selera makan dia macam menurun. so abang pun mintak jasa baik doc emi untuk bagi ubat cirit yang bagus sikit untuk kakak, okay harganya agak mahal tapi abang  tak ingat berapa sebab semua sekali doc totalkan. then ada supplement yang kakak kena makan sebab nak boost dia punya appetite. 3 vet dalam masa kurang 10 hari. pada sesetengah owner mmg agak melampau tapi abang rasa itu perlu memandangkan yang kakak nih dah berumur 9 tahun. gigi depan dia dah rongak. abang pun tak perasan. dok bagi dia makan kibbles jer so dia struggle jugak la nak makan. abang ingat dia sengaja nak sepahkan makanan rupa2nya dia bila gigi depan tak ada mmg susah la nak keep the kibbles inside the mouth. she had no problem chewing the kibbles tapi kalau bowl tu kecik memang akan bersepah lah. bila dah bersepah kat lantai, being a persian cat with prestigious breed mana la dia nak kutipkan. maklumlah breed mahal. that was the last time kakak went to see the vet doctor. lepas tuh kakak hidup dalam keadaan aman dan damai.

kakak punya kesihatan sepanjang jagaan abang turun dan naik. tapi semua masih dalam kawalan dan dengan nasihat doc kakak tak ada menunjukkan gejala sakit yang serious. abang beli special kibbles untuk kakak,  then abang jugak beli kan hill's prescription i/d untuk sensitive intestine. those food werent cheap and arent cheap. now remember this, if i could treat a cat which i didnt even know where she came from, do you reckon i will treat my mom any lesser than that?

i bought things for kakak. of course she was a part of my family. changed the bowl to a larger one so that bila dia makan, makanan tak bersepah and she could take the advantage to scoop the food/kibbles into her mouth. on a bad hair day, i would forced feed kakak with glucose and soften the kibbles by soaking them in water. once in a while. during her stay, abang ada foster few kittens yang jadik teman kepada kakak. miley, adekabang and booboo.




4th Vet Visit: 27/12/12 UPM Vet Hosp dengan cost MYR 243.75

been with me for almost 2 months kakak suddenly collapse. the bowl i filled with kibbles for her was untouched. i was puzzled but i could not do anything since most vet hospitals/clinics were closed when kakak collapsed. i fed her by hand and using syringe to keep her hydrated. early in the morning i brought kakak to UPM vet again. i was too stupid to wait there when i could just say it was an emergency case. through FB a friend told me i could inform the counter person. kakak was admitted and warded on thursday 27th and my heart was never at ease thinking of her. i prayed to god for her recovery. i knew kakak was in a great pain but she didnt give up. i couldnt give up either. i insisted the doctor to keep me updated if there were any changes on noona's condition. if possible every hour. on friday, doc said kakak still could moved all of her four legs but her body was not responding well to the medicine. the cause of kakak's collapse was her deteriorating kidneys. 

kakak drank alot and how silly i was to assume that was ok for any cat. kakak showed the symptom of kidney malfunction. a person like me who has an average knowledge about this could not tell the difference between healthy drinking and the unhealthy one. i should have read more, i should have paid more attention to kakak but all i had in my mind at that time was, 'kakak is ok and will be living for another few more years!'. i was too stupid to think that way. 

29/12/2012: Passing of kakak

it was saturday and the doc called again. a chinese male doc this time. as calm as possible he conveyed the sad news and my heartbeat stopped for a while. my stupidity had caused kakak's death. my 'too positive' thinking neglecting the reality of kakak's health had made me a murderer. kakak only lived for few months after the rescue and i put her in a great pain before she could run to the rainbow bridge. i was a bad bad fosterer, or should i say i was a murderer? if you think i am happy right now, believe me, i can never forgive myself. no matter how much positive words you would or will say, trust me, those positive thought that i had,  killed kakak. i should have brought kakak to  the vet for check up, but doing it regularly would only stress her. she never liked to get into the carrier because she knew i would bring her to the vet. 

i couldnt claim kakak's body because it was saturday and i need to wait untill monday came then only i can have her. it was a long waiting. friends who concerned never stopped trying to cheer me up. i laughed, superficially and i cried a river thinking about kakak. all hopes that i had for her shattered and could no longer be fixed. it was all because of my stupidity and the thought of everything would be fine and ok for kakak. 

i am sorry kakak, i couldnt do much. these few months having you together with me taught me alot. i am sorry kakak that i didnt do my best. i am sorry kakak. 

Dear kakak my darling kakak, 

rest in peace and run at the rainbow bridge,

run far away from this cruel world, 

the world that abandoned you, 

the world that have failed to take care of you, 

Dear kakak my darling kakak, 

at the rainbow bridge,

will you remember me?

will you miss me? 

because right now i am missing you. 

rest in peace kakak but never stop running and playing at the rainbow bridge. i love you and will always  miss you.
