myth-buster: Can they swim? Can they not?

Here I am again… being me naturally… trying to defy the stereotypes, challenge the conservatives and busting myths made by mankind!

Books taught me that cats can’t swim. And i thought, “Oh, really?”
The story: As I was walking at this park somewhere in Shah Alam, there was this mini-pond. And i can’t help myself but to test this hypothesis, that is (…once again), “Cat’s CANNOT swim”. Right about that time, I saw this well-built cat who looked as if it was so fit it could just ride a bicycle by itself. Since no books ever mentioned if the gender was an issue, so i didn’t bother checking. Afterall, a cat is a cat, right?

I threw a pebble to check the depth of the mini-pool to make sure i do not murder any endangered species if that soon-to-be innocent cat was one, in case the hypothesis was valid. Soon enough, as it was ALL right to go, i carried Kitty and for a while, made sure it identified me, and *pow!* … Into the pool that is… And guess what? It could swim pretty well, i must say! haha! So, who actually thought up that cats can’t swim. D-O-H ?! whatever… So parents out there, don’t ever let your children read crap books that say “Cats cannot swim”! It’s probably they hate people like us watching them doing their baths… Try this at home, especially if you own a pet-cat! It’s fun! Seriously! so if you think your cats are dirty and they are too stubborn to clean up, just throw them into your bath tub… Put that lil’ squeeze of lavender bath sud and voila, doinkz! Your cat’s probably much happier than you are if you were in the tub.

Okay.. okay.. I hear you cat-lovers out there starting to squeal already. OH-KAY! since it was my bad to have given an innocent its bath, I’ve decided to become friendly being… (oh well) to the greens.
The story after the cat-bath? : I went to IKEA store, and after much loitering and 50 minutes of total lost and aimless walking, i finally got to the counter to pay for my items. So there I was, at the counter, I saw this 75c per bag to be an environmental friendly lass and free from plastic bag.

There you see it… I shall cook up some ideas on how to spread more love for mother Earth and continue becoming a faithful Earthling. Right now, I’m done for the night. Catch me up soon for more cracked-up ideas, all from the Land of Wonders…
