It has been almost a week now after Daisy delivered the two cute kittens, I now call Brother Einstein and Sister Inul. I told mama that I would like to show them Kuching city. Daisy replied that it depends on whether Inul and Einstein are physically strong and healthy. Probably next week. Meanwhile just be ready coz our foster parents have decided to spend their Chinese New Year holiday in Kuching which is sometimes in early February.
Two days after Einstein and Inul were born, they were brought outside the house to be sunned.
Inul was named after a popular Indonesian dangdut singer who keeps trendy,colourful and unruly hairset !Yes, just like INUL. Never knew crying an be so , so cute!!!
This image must have inspired my foster parents to name my little brother, Einstein. Surprise, He's got white gloves and moustache!!!
Here's a picture for the record. Now, I am not alone. I have a little brother called Einstein and a cute sister named Inul. Here they are a day's old with Daisy.
It is indeed a thrilling moment to see mummy giving birth. After both Einstein and Inul were delivered I tried to touch my little brother.Wow, what a sensation! He's got very dark and glossy furs.
At around eight tonite, mummy gave birth! It seemed so easy for her to deliver her newborn. This is Einstein, he came to the world first. And about fifteen minutes later, out popped Inul.
Here they are together in a paper box that was especially prepared for their delivery to the world.
What makes me naughty today? Somehow I climbed over mummy and bit her ears. "Slowly dear" she cautioned me." I am pregnant you know". "You are a really my love", I told her.
This fourth trip we are waiting for a miracle. You see mummy is about ready to give birth any time now. I am so excited.*^*!!!!!
Here I am introduced to a Bulbul. Our farm has lots and lots of wildlife. Will talk more about them in future. This Bulbul was caught inside a trap meant for squirrels. Anyway , after the introduction and pleasantries, Miss /Mister Bulbul was released into the wild, where they rightly belong. Bye for now!
In Bintulu we are at an eco-friendly farm. That means as much as possible much of the original natural landscape is preserved for its bio-diversity and environmental conservation. There is minimal disturbance to site's topography. Here is a Tarzan Creeper, ya that's what I call it! You can literally swing from one tree to the next with it.
A cu ( close-up) view of the jungle floor created thousands of years ago. It's indeed a pleasure and pure fascination to see such a scene these days behind your house .
This is a Lumok Tree. We have plenty of this kind of tree at the farm. This month of December , we are lucky coz a couple of these trees are bearing good fruits. This tree must have been in the farm for at least fifty years now. The tallest here are about 35 meters high!
The above picture shows a plateful of chempedak fruits. They are soft and sweet. It has a big seed that can be boiled and eaten as a snack. Hmmm...they do taste good and very filling too.
Wow, here's a barrowful of lumok fruits. You need to climb the tree to pick up the fruits!! If they drop high , they'll just get crushed because their skin are very soft.
December is a time of heavy rains in Sarawak and Bintulu is not spared. Here's a picture of the stream just next to our house at the farm in Bintulu. It gets flooded after an hour of heavy down pour.
