Taco sleeping with me on the bed
Taco is the latest pet at home. He is the only pet left at home. At first, it was the children's idea to bring Taco home. But now, it is like my pet. I am taking care of Taco, bringing him to the vet alone too.
Owning a pet is easy but to take good care of it is a huge responsibility. I need to make sure he is safe under my care, otherwise I feel bad. Yesterday at the vet, there were many pet owners with their pet at the vet. We always see people with nice pet with them. But at the vet, we see pet owners with ugly pet, something we don't get to see often in the media too. I saw a woman with a bulldog, tongue dangling out of the mouth, half blind and badly diseased skin. The woman and the dog seemed to have very good relationship. The woman never abandon the pet despite the ugly look of the pet.
Everyone brought their special breed of pets to the vet, mine is only a normal stray. But a Malay couple was attracted to Taco, came close and said, "So cute". Never mind that I have only a stray, at least I rescue him from the factory. From a dirty hungry kitten, now a clean and ideal weight kitten. The sibling Mochi and his mum have problems looking for food everyday. Their living condition is very bad. Taco was full of ticks and fleas when he came home initially. After treatment done for him, he seldom scratch his body now. All the fleas and ticks were gone.
