Usuku lwamazwe ngamazwe loHlangulo lwekati

By UShelby G

Ukuba ubunondibuza ukuba ndiyinja na okanye ndingumntu wekati de ndibeneminyaka engama-20 ubudala, ngendisithi ndiyinja. Ungandivi kakubi, andizange ndizithande iikati! Iibhokisi zebhokisi, i-chihuahuas, abelusi baseJamani, i-bulldogs yaseFransi, i-mutts kunye nokunye - yayiyinto endikhule ngayo, ngoko ke yayiyimpendulo yendalo kum.

Xa ndafudukela ekholejini, olunye uhlengahlengiso olunzima yayikukuqhela ukungabi nazinja. Kwakungekho mntu undibulisa ngemincili xa ndifika ekhaya, okanye ecaleni kwam ngethemba lokuba ndiza kuwisa into xa ndisitya isidlo sangokuhlwa. Njengesipho somhla wokuzalwa kum xa ndandineminyaka engama-20 ubudala, ndaye ndagqiba ekubeni ndiye kwindawo yokugcina izilwanyana kwaye ekugqibeleni ndamkele isilo-qabane esisesam ukuze ndihlale ndinkampani. Andazi ukuba kwakutheni, kodwa ngoko nangoko ndaya kwindawo ekugcinwa kuyo iikati. Ndandivulekele ikati, ngokuqinisekileyo, kodwa ndandisazi ukuba ndingagoduka nenja.

Ukubona njengoko esi sithuba simalunga noSuku lweCat yoHlangulo lwaMazwe ngaMazwe, ndiqinisekile ukuba unokuthelekelela ukuba yintoni eyaphela yenzeka.

Enye yeekati zokuqala endazibonayo yayiyi-tuxedo entle eyaqala ukukhuhla iglasi xa ndidlula, ngethemba lokuhoywa. Ithegi yegama lakhe ifundeka "Gilligan." Emva kokujikeleza igumbi ndize ndijonge zonke iikati, andizange ndikwazi ukumkhupha engqondweni yam uGilligan, ngoko ndabuza omnye wabasebenzi bezokhuseleko ukuba ndingadibana naye. Basibeka kwindawo encinane yentshayelelo, yaye ndandiyibona indlela awayenomdla ngayo, enobuhlobo yaye enobubele. Wayezula-zula egumbini egqogqa yonke into encinci, emva koko, athathe ikhefu ukuze ahlale emathangeni am axukuxe okwenjini. Emva kwemizuzu eyi-10, ndaqonda ukuba nguye.

Iiveki ezimbalwa zokuqala kunye noGilligan zazi… zinomdla. Wayenomdla nje ekhaya njengoko wayekwindawo yokuhlala kwaye wachitha iintsuku ezimbalwa zokuqala ehlola kwaye ezama ukungena kuyo yonke into awayenokuyenza. Ndafumanisa ukuba wayekrelekrele ngokukrakra kwaye wayekwazi ukuvula yonke idrowa kunye nekhabhathi kwigumbi lokuhlala (kunye needrowa ezikhuphayo ezingenasiphatho!). Ukufihla ukutya kunye nezibiliboco apho engazifumani kwaba ngumdlalo, kwaye ndandidla ngokulahleka. Wayekhupha izinto kwi-dresser yam kunye neeshelufu ukuze andivuse ekuseni, kwaye ebusuku, wayesondeza indlu. Ndacinga ukuba ndiza kuphulukana nengqondo yam ndizama ukuqonda ulwimi lomzimba wakhe kunye nokuziphatha kwakhe - wayehluke kakhulu kunezinja endandiziqhelile!

Kuwo onke ama-negative, nangona kunjalo, kwakukho izinto ezilungileyo. Ngoku ndandinomhlobo ongagungqiyo, yaye ukungxola kwakhe okufana ne-injini kwaba yingxolo emhlophe ethuthuzelayo. Into endakhe ndacinga ukuba ayilunganga kwaye ukuziphatha okungaqhelekanga kuye kwalindelwa kwaye kwahlekisa, kwaye ndakhula ngokucwangciswayo ukusuka ekufundeni ukuya kusebenza malunga nomdla kunye nobulumko bakhe. UGill waba sisithunzi sam. Wayendilandela ukusuka kwigumbi ukuya kwelinye ukuze aqinisekise ukuba akukho nto alahlekelwa yiyo, kwaye wayengumzingeli oqinisekisiweyo wezinambuzane onokuthi asuse naziphi na izinambuzane ezinelishwa ngokwaneleyo ukuba zingene. Ndaye ndakwazi ukuphumla. ngakumbi, kwaye amanye amaxesha endiwathandayo emini kuxa siza kubukela iintaka ngefestile kunye. Okona kubaluleke kakhulu, amanqanaba oxinzelelo kunye nempilo yengqondo yaphucuka kakhulu ekubeni ndibe naye.

Kwakukho igophe lokufunda, kodwa ukuthatha uGilligan kwakusesinye sezona zigqibo zilungileyo endakha ndazenza. Rhoqo ngonyaka ngosuku lwakhe lokwamkelwa, uGill ufumana izinto zokudlala kunye nethoyi entsha yokumbhiyozela esiza ebomini bam kwaye andibonise ukuba, enyanisweni, ndingumntu wekati.

Ngomhla we-2 kaMatshi, uSuku lwe-International Rescue Cat luza kubhiyozelwa okwesihlanu ukususela oko lwaqala ukubonwa ngo-2019. I-ASPCA iqikelela ukuba malunga ne-6.3 yezigidi zezilwanyana zingena kwiindawo zokuhlala e-United States minyaka yonke, kwaye kwezo, malunga ne-3.2 yezigidi ziikati. (aspca.org/helping-people-pets/shelter-intake-and-surrender/pet-statistics)

Usuku lwamazwe ngamazwe lwe-International Rescue Cat alwenzelwe ukubhiyozela iikati zokuhlangula kuphela, kodwa ukuphakamisa ulwazi malunga nokwamkelwa kwekati. Kukho izizathu ezininzi zokwamkela iikati kwiindawo zokuhlala zezilwanyana ngokuchasene nokuya kwiivenkile zezilwanyana okanye abafuyi. Iikati zokuhlala zihlala zinexabiso eliphantsi, ubuntu bazo baziwa ngcono kuba benxibelelana nabasebenzi bendawo yokuhlala kunye namavolontiya mihla le, kwaye uninzi lweendawo zokuhlala zinika izilwanyana zabo naluphi na ugonyo, unyango, kunye nokuhlinzwa abalufunayo ngaphambi kokuba bazithumele ekhaya ukuze bamkelwe. Kwaye, ukwamkela iikati kwiindawo zokuhlala kunceda ukunciphisa ukuxinana kwaye, kwezinye iimeko, kunokusindisa ubomi babo.

Zininzi iikati ezimangalisayo ezifana neGilligan ngaphandle ezidinga amakhaya kunye noncedo, ngoko cinga ukubhiyozela uSuku lweCat ye-International Rescue kulo nyaka ngokuvolontiya kwindawo yakho yokuhlala yezilwanyana, ukunikela kumaqela okuhlangula ikati afana neDenver's Dumb Friends League kunye neRocky Mountain Feline Rescue. , okanye (inketho endiyithandayo) ukuthatha ikati eyeyakho!
