Eating Grass

I captured this wild cat a few days ago. Why cats are eating grass? I do a little search, and here is the result. Eating grass isn't for the nutritional value. Grass is pretty indigestible to cats, and low in nourishment anyway. Grass is mainly fibre and the cat's stomach doesn't have the enzyme needed to digest it. However, grass can help a cat's digestive process by inducing regurgitation of undigested matter.

Domestic cats, especially exclusively indoor cats, will seldom have the chance to digest live prey. But even these cats still will chew on grass if it is provided - and it should be. Remember that cats clean up themselves extensively, and their tongues are prepared with little hooks which pick up loose hair.

However, the disadvantage of this is that cats end up swallowing a large proportion of the hair they lick off their coats. Hair is not eatable and it can bundle up in the stomach to create a furball. Eating grass may aid in removing the furballs through vomiting before they become unmanageable.

So, eating grass is good for your cat!

Couple’s Corner: Likes and Dislikes

Last week, we talked about our opposites that surely have no affect with our love. This week, we will talk about our Likes and Dislikes. For me, it needs time to know likes and dislikes of my husband. Knowing your spouse well, such as each other’s likes and dislikes, is important enough as it can strengthen your relationship!

Just share a little bit of our likes and dislikes here. What you can learn is, a husband and a wife can have their different likes and dislikes, and you can use these facts to care your spouse more.

He likes to start the day with a glass of water and a cup of sweet black coffee. Since he plans to reduce sugar intake, I make his coffee less sweet than the usual. During fasting month, he always ends sahur meal with one big glass of water and a cup of coffee. If he doesn’t drink coffee in the morning, he can get headache all day. I prefer green tea to coffee now.

‘Sambal’ is a must for him. Sambal is like a hot sauce that made from lots of chili. If ‘sambal’ isn’t yet available on the table, he prefer to postpone eating time and wait for me making it first. With or without sambal, I can eat my meal.

Every times he leaves home, he wants me to accompany and ‘release’ him until the fence door. I always kiss his hand and he kisses my forehead.

We like to help other people, as long as we are still capable doing it.
We like to watch TV news and hanging out together in week end afternoon.
We like sitting at the porch and having a chat about everything.

I like to tickle his waist and he hates it, hehehe.
He doesn’t like if I don’t stare at him when he’s talking.
He doesn’t like if I’m going out alone and forget to ask his permission first.
He doesn’t like eating alone at home. If I’ve already eaten before, I still should accompany him.

He can be so spoiled. He likes to get a soft massage and I like it, too.
He doesn’t like if I’m too busy with my own hobbies. He’s a kind of a person that needs more attention. He doesn’t like being alone. Not like me, I can enjoy being alone!

It’s just a little bit of our story. You can join Couple’s Corner to share yours.

Couples’ Corner : Our Total Opposite

Oops, I’m late again to write Couple’s Corner post. This week’s topic is about Total Opposite. Is there a wife that 100% well-matched with her husband? Well, there’s still a possibility; but I guess it would be only a few.

A married couple can have a wonderful and strong bond; but it doesn’t mean that they are just having a little opposite. For example, besides our compatibilities, I and my hubby have many opposites; but we still can live happily – I hope for ever after- hehehe.

Actually, I don’t see our opposites as a big problem. As long as we aren’t selfish; we always find a solution or make a compromise.

The opposites of a married couple can happen in many ways. Just mention a little bit here.

He likes sweet food; I hate it.
He loves hot and spicy food; my stomach can accept it.
He hates reading. I have to read newspapers for him.
He loves bargaining; I don’t.
He loves wandering in a flea market; I don’t.
I love window shopping at the mall; he doesn’t. He said that just watching and buying nothing is embarrassing.
I’m a quiet person; he’s very talkative.
He’s a spontaneous person; I prefer to make plans first. His spontaneous act often ruins my plans!
I’m frugal; he loves shopping. Sometimes I must put things from our shopping cart back to the store shelf.
