Donations from Nikki and friends collected!

After emailing back and forth with Maybank, finally I knew how to receive funds from Moneygram. First you need a photocopy of your ID/IC card, then just go to Komtar (Penang Island), beside Maybank there is a counter/booth which is a Foreign Exchange, and tell them you would like to cash out Moneygram. They will give you a form to fill up as shown above. Reference number and name of the sender is required.

Donations are from Nikki, Lejane, Kerbear and Lize in South Africa. Thank You so much! Donations amount is RM 231.83 after conversion.

Total donations for Alera so far is RM 1813.74 (Ringgit Malaysia).

The first check from Angela with the amount of USD 416 cleared today in my HSBC Malaysia bank with the conversion rate of 3.39, it becomes RM 1398.92. It took about 35 days or so for International Check to clear.

Total of Alera funds received at this moment is RM 1581.91 (Ringgit Malaysia).

Dog in small confined cage.

I got a call from my mom today while she was visiting my aunt, she saw a very injured maggot wound dog. I called Joseph, my friend, and together we went to have a look but couldn't find the dog everywhere. I gave my phone number to one of the guards there and told him if he ever sees that dog again, just give me a ring. He said the dog is in severe condition with a maggot wound as large as a hand palm. But we didn't stop just there, we went round and round the carparks and were driving down the roads beside the hospital but with no luck. Then we came across this unfortunate doggie who spend most of his time in a small confined cage. According to Joseph, he has reported this cruelty act to the local animal authority and still the owner does not responce to the warnings. I will make my rounds and see if the owner ever let this poor doggie out during night time.

Baby Alera In Diaper

I managed to shoot some photos of Alera and the rest of the gang today. This photo was taken in my tiny little kitchen, I wish I had the video camera with me. Alera is such a naughty fellow, he is like a big brother and love to fight. Very active I must say for a disable kitty. After these photos shoot, Alera need to be back in the cage as he wet the diaper, he urinated alot whenever he is excited!
