Ex-lab chimps see daylight!

 

From Geekology:
This is a video of a group of ex-laboratory chimpanzees seeing daylight for the first time in their lives (for some, others since the capture from their mothers soon after birth) and most are over 20.
That's quite sad, isn't it? How they're taken from their mothers so young and they stay cooped up in labs practically all their lives...

I saw a cat dying on the street today.

I was at the backseat of the car so I didn't see it get run over by a big SUV on the other side of the road, but my sister and dad both cried out at the same time when they saw it happen.

We were looking for the cat on the street, but my dad said it ran away after getting run over by both the front and back tires. When the traffic on our lane started moving, we saw the cat, lying in the middle of the street.

My dad swerved the car to the right so we can avoid the cat - at the very least, we won't pass over it.

I looked at the cat and and it was still alive, but it looked like it was in pain. In the few seconds that I was able to look at it, it was gasping for breath and its eyes were wide open.

When I looked back, none of the other cars followed what my dad did. They just drove over the cat, and I can't help but wonder if one of the cars ran over it and killed it...that would end its suffering, right? :(

I wish I could've done something for the cat. If I was driving my own car, I would've probably stopped to pick the cat up and drive it to the vet. I felt really bad for the cat...so much that I was silently crying at the backseat after I saw it.

Rest in peace, little kitty...

To my dearest Meesa


Six months together was too short.

Our time together didn't have to end so soon... If only I had been a bit more careful.

Yes, I blame myself, baby...

There are a lot of things going on inside my head... A lot of "ifs"; a lot of "should haves" but thinking about them now will not bring you back to me. Not now, not ever.

I have wronged you in so many ways, Meesa, that no amount of tears shed will be enough to make up for what I have failed yo do: protect you.

It will take some time to get used to you not being around... I won't call out "Meesa!" anymore when I come home from work.. I won't be able to rub your tummy anymore... I won't annoy you during daylight when you're fast asleep, curled up like a ball inside the mugs that you've made your home... No more late-night cabbage and pechay snacks either. Tatay doesn't need to wake me up early in the morning anymore because you've magically gotten out of your cage and he can't put you back in because you scratched and bit him - and I was the only one whom you'd accept handling from...

Suddenly, that space in the counter where you're cage used to be in feels a lot more empty than it already is..

I remember everything about you so vividly. Meesa. The memories I have of you are very much alive that the mere thought of how you'd call me, or nibble at my finger, or jump and glide towards me... Everything is too painful to recall, baby.

I'm really, truly sorry if I wasn't able to do anything to stop this accident. I'm sorry if I wasn't able to take care of you better, or if the time I spent with you was not enough. I'm sorry if I didn't run to your aid when you were calling. I'm really, really sorry if I failed you, Meesa.

Don't worry though, we'll see each other again. Just wait for me and Daddy and the rest of your brothers and sisters, okay, babe? It won't be too long until we're together again, so until that time, just keep watching over us, okay, Mees?

I love you.

In memory of Meesa...

Wake up! It's dangerous over there!


A dog in the middle of a street, tries to awaken his dead friend, who had been hit by a car. The dog would bark and growl at anyone trying to get close , and he would not leave his friend.Some animals are more compassionate and loyal than human.
