i was supposed to watch the new jackie chan movie 'shinjuku incident' with my friends and we had already bought tickets. and so after a drink at TCC bugis, we crossed the road towards the new shopping mall for the movie. while crossing the road, a kitten also tried to cross another part of the road at the same time and got hit by a car. luckily my friend was alert enough to dash towards the kitten to carry her to the side of the road before it gets hit again by other moving vehicles. unfortunately, the kitten could no longer move its hind legs. she crawled pitifully while groaning and crying :( using its front legs.. we managed to find a box for her and i called spca.

i know spca's policy is they will put the kitten to sleep, but we thought it was the best solution for her. and so we waited for spca to come... at first the kitten was still quite active in the box..whimpering, moving around, struggling..then i thought she fell asleep, but by the time spca came abt 15 mins later, the kitten had already died. :(

i whispered a short prayer and prayed that she can RIP and be reincarnated into a better being.

it was indeed v sad to see life slip away. i've had other pets such as my bird chiyo, my 2 tortoises, my rabbits..passed away before but not before my very own eyes so it was particularly painful.

even though i had only spent a short half hour with the kitten, i could see from my very own eyes her relentless fighting spirit.

i wonder if the driver knew that he had knocked down a tiny kitten. and whether he will be pricked by his conscience. i really wish everyone could drive safely and be more considerate for others. all living things, big or small deserves a chance to live. 

RIP kitten
