Cats in Vietnam are everywhere, especially around the kitchen and dinner table. They like bones and scraps and they are incredible at killing mice. At dinner a couple of days ago I hopped up to get a bowl of rice and had to step over a ledge - cat crouched chomping down on its dinner, big Emily foot on its little body, cat scream, cat scratch... so sorry little kitty!
The scratch drew blood and so Thai and I decided to visit the doc here in Can Tho to see if I should get rabies shots. The cats are different around here and not nearly as spoiled and domesticated as the cats in the U.S. So, being a foreigner, he recommended it and now I just have started my round of rabies vaccinations! woo-hoo! It is a very simple process and very cheap so it's really not too big of a deal. Just wanted to share the exciting news before I head back to the Center...
Stay tuned for Food: Part 1....
