PawGlam Collar Episode

Those who know me will know that I am a very reasonable person when I buy things. I have always been willing to compromise as I believe in this word; Karma, strongly. My parents are in the service business, I don't want my Karma goes to them being treated badly instead. Thus, it takes a lot and I mean a lot, for my patience to run dry. I felt so disappointed and cheated by this purchase of PawGlam Collar. Bought two from them previously and I know what quality I expected from them. It's not easy to irk me, yet when it does, it does me bad. 

Summary: Item bought and worn twice, when the lace frayed, Pawglam refused to fix it. Well, not refused, but agreed to fix at $20. When the new piece was bought at $32.90. Worse, a friend who bought the same piece experienced the same faulty lace too. Yeah well, Pawglam blatantly refused to take responsibility, saying it isn't their fault the lace is not a better quality. At the end, they gave a pathetic 15% discount for next purchase. 

UPDATE LATER THAT NIGHT: Pawglam after much pestering from my friend, who of course, more stubborn than me said that they will do a one to one exchange. That, too after a very much pestering that they insincerely proposed the idea. Probably after they checked their faulty lace. Anyway, I refused the offer and will continue to hate them. FYI, they didn't call up or message me to offer the exchange/ fixing, but asked through my friend. Sincere? Very!

UPDATE LATER LATER NEXT WEEK: Pawglam didn't do a one to one exchange to my friend. They replaced the lace part to something uglier. Sigh...

Full encounter below:

Bought this pretty piece from them $32.90. Bought I think Mid May or whatever I don't remember, but I took it out on 24th May to visit Daddy at MBS. Worn first time. It was a pretty light outing, a little walk here and there.


Second time worn just yesterday for an outing at a friend's place, well April did not play and stayed in my lap the whole bloody night. When I got home, I took out her collar to find a  badly frayed corner. I thought April might have scratched it, so I tested to pull a little on its rim to test its strength. Yea, no strength needed, just a tug and it's all gone to pieces. Sucks to the max! If it were strong and I know April might have accidentally scratched it, I WILL pay the fixing fee, and my message would be honestly this, "Hi, April has accidentally scratched this, can you help me fix it, I don't mind topping some $$." With a quality like this, no way...

So, the message goes as attached below, word for word.

Uh.. so what if it was a gift, although it wasn't, but it's not nice to put things that way. Felt a little offended, but maybe I shouldn't be too sensitive, I thought. So I let it go.
Not a person to end things on a bad note, I ended it nicely, albeit sarcastically. Don't know if she is trying to match my sarcasm with the reply below. Can't she tell I'm ending my business with them here?



Upset, I took things onto my own hands, I cut the bottom part off, in tears, mind you.
I love my things and I have feelings for them =(



Thought gonna just shut up and let it go when my friend Lydia bought the same piece as me and got the same problem, too. Same problem, same answer!!!! Obviously something is wrong with your craftmanshipppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO a recall on this design, omg...


Allright, some also say that I am cheapo, yeah whatever, would I cheat a $20. Me lehhhh... meeee.....!!!
I sent her this on March and I understand that wearing off is a norm, didn't kick a fuss when she said she doesn't recondition. I understand... Even when the collar compared to the one I bought years go from Bangkok and worn to beach and rough plays hasn't worn off yet, still questionably awful. Yet, I understand and bought another one from her. 

Now, you tell me, what kind of service is this? Am I being demanding and unreasonable here?

April..

Been missing my baby girl from this blog for a while, so here she is...


April girl has been her notorious self all the while. Been hiding in my bag during the weekends when we are out, as she is STILL not cured from her Separation Anxiety. She would rather be stuffed in my bag to go shopping with me! 
Oh, baby girl is blind on her right eye for quite some time now. Seen her bumping into stuffs, mostly on her right. Not letting it affect me so much although it saddened me as it hits the fact that baby girl is getting older now, she will be 9 in 2 months time. I don't think she knows that she is blind, as happy go lucky as she is. I know if it affects me, it will further affects her, so I'm letting her be. Been recommended to go for further tests for her eye, xray and all those. I opted no, as I don't want to torture her any further, she will need to go under GA and stuffs. She is as active as ever, especially at 11pm at night when I'm just about getting sleepy and ready for bed.

www.celegifts.com

Have you ever visited the www.celegifts.com. This is a website created by my own 2 lady bosses, due to their love of shopping. They traveled overseas often and get some interesting items back to be sold on the website. Do lend your support and let me know some feedbacks and comments about the website if you have.
It has lots of items for men, women, home, fashion accessories and of course PETS!! That will be my forte, I suggested this category for them and most of the time hands on with the items there. So, let me know if you need anything or have items or ideas you can contribute to help me. This will be my grounds to see how things work online, a learning tool for perhaps to set up one of my own.

P.S. I have limited access to who buy what and when, so if you want to get discount let me know, so I can tweak some discounts for you back-end. See ya!!

Wow!!

It has been sooooo sooo long since I checked in here. My hype in blogging has seriously died, dead!!

Life has been nothing and nothing, but work and work. Zzzzzzzz.... how boring! Always getting sick and sick, been having this cough for a month now and I start to wonder if anyone could die from too much coughing. Cough attack! Has never experienced being sick for this long, hope I can be in my tiptop condition soon!

Well, anyway these past few weeks have been fun hanging out with the doggie friends. A great bunch of people, I must say.

Seriously, I want to rant, but I want to sleep! HOhoHO!

When animals

is no longer animals in our heart, they behaved differently, looked differently, felt differently and treated differently. Probably it's just me, but I see a different shine in the eyes of the animals that comes into my life to become my pets. Recently after Rhino came to me, my cousin asked me why all of my pets looked cuter and different than the ones that she ever had. The question struck me too.

I believe when our pets are treated humanely, they behave differently. From all the furkids that I mixed with from all of my friends, I can tell that all of them are especially loved by their mommies and daddies, their eyes shine with adoration when they looked at their parents. When I see the dogs at the pet shops, yes they are undoubtedly cute as buttons, but their eyes has no shine, a lifeless look.

When these animals came into me, I make sure they are well fed, cleaned after, and I really mean CLEAN! I don't like animal smells, I don't care if my pets like it, I just know that I don't. It's unhealthy for us human, too. I believe when they come to me, I chose them, they don't come to me begging to be kept, but I brought them into my house and so it depends on me whether their life is happy or not.

My cousin, had the exact breed of hammy and she asked me why her hamster is so freaking ugly. I told her, well, you kept her in the corner of the house floor, her food is placed there until the next refill, you barely even look at her everyday, forgetting her existence even. When it's time to clean her, your maid just took out the bedding and refill it. Her cage smells, so does she, how can she be cute in your eyes? For you, she is just another animal.

Sleeping soundly, he now trust me to not stirring even as I bug him in his sleep...
Honestly, I didn't know that hamster can be tamed, all I know that they bite. I don't know that they can lick, they respond to their name and willingly came up to your hand. The power of communication, bonding, touch and talking is amazing.

Had a good day

Had a short meetup with the girls at USDB, quite a so so place, just that there's so many goodies to buy for the kiddos.The people are friendly and genuinely sincere, especially the Auntie, thought she would be all yayapapaya (woops~). Across the place is a pet shop, oh man, I have to restrain myself from buying more and more and more. This month I have been spending like there's no tomorrow, especially with the new hammy boy, I have to retrain myself next month, I MUST!!

LOL, anyway, good to see the usual girls, been missing out on a lot of updates, and haven't been seeing the kiddos for the longest time ever. Phew, glad to be out~ Come out and play again, soon!

Petopia Day

Has been thinking to visit this place since day 1 it opened at Yio Chu Kang. Excited that today I finally got the time to book a grooming session for April. One glance through, super happy that it's clean and smell damn good. Seriously, I hate doggie smells. Then, a smell did came through, April poo-ed (urghh~), which Marcus voluntarily cleaned it up for me. Anyway, a tour around got me craving for a micro-bubble spa session and clay spa thingy also sounds delicious.

Thought to wait around for April to finish, but in the end decided to show up at the 7 month prayer at Head Office, it's in the East, Oh My God~ Somehow, felt at ease to leave April there anyway. After grooming, put her at the boarding for 1.5 hours. Thought she will be trembling like she usually did after grooming, but when I picked her up, she was excitedly happy yet seemed to be at ease. A good sign that something has been done right over here.

Angie groomed April and although there are rooms for improvement, not too shabby. I like how she notices things that I didn't. She said April is okay, while I assume she's toning it down, April is traumatizing, I know!

 Current hobby, watching Hammy Boy~


Cutie Hammy Boy, sleeping~

Feeding addiction


New cage, sponsored by Missy Boss. I told her the little hammy boy is still under probation, to keep him or not is up to the house owner, BIL. So fast, she got him a cage already and handed it to me. How can I not keep hammyboy? Sighh...

Where else you find a boss that feeds on your addiction?

Happy with my new toy

Hammy boyyyyy...... lol...

Do you know?
  • Hamboy is pretty active at twilight, he spent the rest of the hours sleeping....
  • He will lick at my finger, nibble nibble and if I don't take away my finger, I'm pretty sure he will bit into it
  • If I put tissues all around the cage, he will move it into a bundle at one corner the next morning.
  • He move tissues around by putting them inside his pouch first. super cuteeeeeeee
  • He is cranky when you wake him up from his sleep
  • A bath sand actually works in cleaning and make his smell dissappear

Heee.... still learning a lot about him. Later peeps!

Hamboy~

 
Borrowed Ade's hammy boy for the weekend, so cuteeeeee......
Makes me wanna have one, too, but it seemed to be so small and fragile. I kinda have a phobia towards hamsters, cos one bit me a decade ago, but this little boy licked my hand the moment I saw him. So awww... At twilight, I can hear him playing on his wheel, hee..

Don't understand much about hammies, kinda scary to keep him, haha....

Whassuppp~

What's up, World?? Seems like ages since I stepped in here. Life has been hectic, especially with the new job scope, I am overwhelmed!

Anyway, Sis found a Red-Eared slider on the street recently. It was dirty, deformed and almost got crushed by a truck on the roadside. She brought him home, and of course, Sis gave him a second chance of life, but whether his life continues, it depends on me. His shell is no longer green, but almost white, has cracks, the sides of his shell is upturned as if he has been kept in a tight place, that the shell has nowhere to grow.

At first, he was very timid, now he's like a wild hog, eats non stop and would eat food from our hand. Ever since he came, I have never seen him drying himself and always spend his time underwater.

First Day home~
Name: Bieber
Age: Unknown
Gender: I'd like him to be a male

Second Day home, got him settled in, detoxed and brushed him GOOD!
This is our Junior, the cutest thing ever~
While at it, meet the rest of the community. Spot Crabby~
Crabby love Junior and has no problem living together despite being different. 
But Crabby hates Bieber, both of them love chasing each other around.

The rest of the fishy, Bieber love chasing them as well, trying to eat them obviously.

Sometimes though when I looked at Bieber, I wonder if he is pissed, he always looked so pissed anyway. He was a free guy afterall, despite being almost crushed by a truck. Well, if he died then, it would be the end. Now, we brought him home, confined him, can he think, I wonder? Will he choose to live an uncertain life outside?
