Pet Shop in Ipoh - Pretty Pets

I found this pet shop - Pretty Pets is the right place to go in Ipoh, reasons:-

1. He gave 10% discount from the price tagged to the item, this is the same with most of others pet shop.

2. The owner, Danny Chin, has good knowledge about dogs and products, a genuine sales man whereby he knows what he is talking about. Help you to find solution to solve your dog's problem.

3. Basic grooming here is charge reasonable price, RM30 for Dino or Fluffy. Though i still prefer Dino's previous hair cut, but the groomer here is alright, she did very good job. I'll come back.

Fluffy 1st menorrhea

OH NO!!!! Fluffy is having her 1st period on 15 Mar 2009!!!! It's so soon, she is only 7 months old!!! Oh gosh....

This happened when we were away to Hosp. Fatimah to pick my dad. I saw blood stain on the floor and i quickly look at her private part. My little fluffy girl is having her period. Without hesitate, we call our usual vet, but he was engaged......then we brought her to pet shop, bought her this little panty thing which can slot in her pad (as picture below).

The pad is not cheap, RM5 for 10 pieces, it's not a quality pad, just a thin cotton only. I've decided to let her use my pantiliner only...

Elcerdo

Sam and I hardly go for fine dining, he is not a food person but i am... Anyway, Jordan and Paola bought us to this Spanish restaurant called Elcerdo. They have been there a few time and saying they serve good food, worth to pay the money, must go again..

i look so tired, i had no time to go back home to refresh myself, Sam came to office to pick me there we go


Basically they serve pork, pork and pork...poor Sam who is a chicken guy, tonight is not his night...hahah


We ordered
(1) goat cheese
(2) Piglet

(3) Paaela


Erm...given a choice, i wouldn't go again. It just not my taste, i still prefer chinese roast piglet during chinese new year, more meat. Their popular piglet is soft and fatty, you can use a ceramic plate to chop it, somemore chop with style and lastly throw the plate into a basin, the waiter greet us blah blah blah...something like happy new year and relationship...it's good experience though


Paaela, the pork smell is strong....


Bill, come out about RM300++

I was really really full and many thanks to Jordan and Paola.

Friends also play an important role, Hwee Pheng, Ee Mae, Si Ming, Tina, Vic, Jessie, Wendy, Grace, Charmaine, Aldrick, Hooi Ling, Josephine, Darren, Yin Hun, Hilda......they pray for me and listen from me.......

Sister, she is alwyas on my side and listen to all my complains

Wow!!!! i am actually surrounded by great people.

This is want i learn during my devotion

A SHELTERING TREE
5hortly before his death, Samuel Taylor Coleridge wrote Youth and Age in which he reflected over his past and strength of his earlier years. He wrote, for example: Nought cared this body for wind or weather, When youth and I lived in it together.... But, to me, the most moving line in this quaint work is the statement: Friendship is a sheltering tree.... How true . . . how terribly true! When the searing rays of adversity’s sun burn their way into our day, there’s nothing quite like a sheltering tree — a true friend — to give us relief in its cool shade. Its massive trunk of understanding gives security as its thick leaves of love wash our face and wipe our brow. Beneath its branches have rested many a discouraged soul! Let me name a few. Elijah was ready to quit. Depressed and threatened, he turned in his prophet’s badge and wrote out his resignation. God refused to accept either He gave him rest, good food, and a tree named Elisha — who, according to Elijah’s own testimony, “ministered to him” (1 Kings 19:19—21). In the analogy of Coleridge, Elijah rested in the shade of Elisha’s “sheltering tree.” Paul had a similar experience. In fact, the trees in his life significantly sustained him. There was Barnabas who stood by him when everyone else ran from him (Acts 9:26—27; 11:25—26). There was Silas, his traveling companion over many an otherwise lonely mile (Acts 15:40 — 41). When you add Dr. Luke and Timothy and Onesiphorus and Epaphroditus and Aquila and Priscilla, you find a veritable forest of sheltering trees in that great man’s life. Even Jesus enjoyed Lazarus, Martha, and Mary. Even He was refreshed beneath those sheltering branches from Bethany (John 11:5). But of all the trees that God placed beside His choice servants, one human redwood looms the largest, in my opinion. David was hunted and haunted by madman Saul. The king’s single objective was to witness with his own eyes David’s corpse. Between Saul and David, however, stood a A Season of Renewal sheltering tree named Jonathan, who neither shook nor shed in that precarious place. No matter how hard he tried, Saul could not chop down that tree! Loyal and dependable, Jonathan assured David, “Whatever you say, I will do for you” (1 Samuel 20:4). No limits. No conditions. No bargains. No reservations. Best of all, when things were at their worst, he “went to David ... and encouraged him in God” (1 Samuel 23:16). Why? Why would he provide such a refreshment? Because he was committed to the basic principles of a friendship. Because “he loved him as he loved him self (1 Samuel 18:1). It was love that knit their hearts together. The kind of love that causes men to lay down their lives for their friends, as Jesus put it (John 15:13). No greater love exists on this globe. Beneath whose branches are you refreshed, dear reader? Or, dare I ask, who rests beneath yours? Occasionally, I run across an independent soul who shuns the idea that he needs such a shelter, feeling that trees are for the immature, the spiritual babes, or those who haven’t learned to trust only in the Lord. It is that person I most pity, for his horizontal contacts are invariably superficial and shallow. Worst of all, his closing years on earth will be spent in the loneliest spot imaginable — a hot, treeless desert. So, then, let’s be busy about the business of watering and pruning and cultivating our trees, shall we? Would I be more accurate if I added plant in a few? Growing them takes time, you know . .. and you may really need a few when the heat rises and the winds begin to blow. But I should remind you that a real, genuine, deep, solid friend is • - exceedingly rare. Either you’re still looking through the forest. . . or, like me (thank God), you’re enjoying shade and shelter today beside your God-given tree.
