Animal Stories

Cat
Just after a few weeks when I managed to drive alone. An unexpected incident happened. The car started meowing at me. At first, I thought it came from the car radio, so I took no notice of it. Then the meowing started to be more persistent. I quickly turned off the radio and listen closely.

Meow~

Oh no, there was a car in the car. But where? I was driving in the middle of a busy road, I panicky searching for a spot to park and search for the cat. I stopped at the petrol station and check the car. I search the wheels, at the back seat, the car boot. No cat in sight, and no meows. So, I think that I was imagining stuff, proceed driving to office.

Meow~

Arrggghh! What is it? A ghost cat? I kept telling myself to concentrate in driving. Once in the company car park. I jumped out of the car and start finding the cat. I couldn't find it. So, I called dad for help. "Did you check the car bonnet?", he asked. And there I found the kitten who hitched a ride.

The poor kitten is lucky to be able to survive. Its left eyes looks injured, but it was still well enough to escape from my frantic grasp to get it out of the car engine. Finally, it treated me like a monster attacking from the top (car engine), it hide further down deep into the engine and finally it landed on the ground.

I came to the office late by half an hour. And I couldn't find the kitten again after that.


Lizard
Just now I found a lizard soaking itself in a pail of water. It looked like enjoying itself (it really look like soaking in hot tub or 'onsen'). I took a scoop to poke it to check whether it is alive or not. It moved away from the towels which kept its head above water. Then I saw a lizard drowning scene. I concluded that lizard can't swim after all and scoop it up, and drain the water and the lizard to the basin. The lizard is alive and will continue its duty to eat up mosquitoes in house.


Rat
When I knew the office rats chews off my one week worth of breakfast and leave its dropping behind, I never felt sorry for any rat which get caught in the mouse trap. The office mouse trap had been doing its job of catching the evil rats, young or old, right after the incident. My office mate even show me a few tricks of setting up the mouse trap. Hehehe, rats beware!


Monkey
After lunch break, I found a monkey digging up human trash. "Oh, look monkey", I said. "Hey, I'm not monkey", my fellow office mate barked back. I don't mean you duh, is the real monkey. I'm thinking that did he indirectly admit he is the monkey. Anyway, the monkey is frightened by our presence and sent out unmistakable sound like 'who are you? get away, I don't like stranger. Come any closer then I'll bite!'. Office mate doesn't seem to care, and try to take a picture of a monkey. I warned him that if he want to treasure his new phone, please leave the monkey alone. He quickly keep the phone away from the monkey and we left the monkey alone.
