I’ve got a placement as a veterinary nurse in a horse clinic. Being able to specialize like this will hopefully be the key to my future career.

我在馬匹診所獲得獸醫護士職位,希望這種專科經驗有助未來發展。

Original veterinary graduate photograph

I wasn’t sure about whether I really wanted to be a vet, so I did the diploma course first. In September I’m going to start studying full-time to become a vet!

我原本未確定是否想做獸醫,所以先修讀文憑課程。九月將開始全日制獸醫學習!

Article from The Gamer magazine

Grandmothers with virtual pets?!

My spies tell me that the world of gaming has taken an unusual turn this week. The story is that there’s a community of old people in Florida, USA doing some serious game time to collect online virtual pets of all things. Mrs Crannery, a retired teacher, 76, explains it this way:

據報美國佛羅里達州有一群長者投入遊戲,收集網上的虛擬寵物。76 歲退休教師 Crannery 太太解釋:

Well, we got into the online stuff like the virtual pet thing and car racing games to keep our minds active as we get older. We do the usual things with our virtual pets. I’ve got two horses. It’s certainly better than spending your time on those card playing games sites.

我們玩虛擬寵物和賽車遊戲,是為了年紀漸長時保持頭腦活躍。我有兩匹虛擬馬,總比只玩網上紙牌好。

More news from the busy elderly virtual pet breeders – here’s more from Perry Schmidt, our virtual pets expert: ‘new websites are appearing where, believe it or not readers, owners are cross-breeding animals and creating, like, super pets!’

虛擬寵物專家 Perry Schmidt 說,新網站讓主人雜交動物,創造出「超級寵物」。

One is a Draglion – a cross between a lion and a Komodo dragon, imagine that! Lots of excitement about this because it’s so super unusual. No one knows what these elderly gamers will come up with next but you can bet, we’ll keep ya posted!

例如獅子與科莫多龍雜交的 Draglion。大家因其奇特而興奮,未來這群長者還會創造甚麼,令人期待。

Interview excerpt from student podcast: A different kind of nurse!

Host:

We’re lucky enough today to be sitting with three new graduates from the School of Veterinary Medicine at King George University, Canada. They’ve all just completed their course in Veterinary Nursing. Please welcome Ian McBain, Randall Worthing and Candy Tse. Okay, let’s start with the easy question: What is a veterinary nurse? What do you do?

今天我們訪問加拿大 King George University 獸醫學院的三位獸醫護理畢業生:Ian McBain、Randall Worthing 和 Candy Tse。獸醫護士是做甚麼的?

Ian:

Well, most obviously we provide care and support for animals when they get sick.

我們在動物生病時提供護理與支持。

Host:

Okay. Great. So, you just finished your training. What do you think the best bit of being a veterinary nurse is going to be then?

你們剛完成培訓,最期待這份工作的哪部分?

Ian:

I think the clinical duties. In the training, we did so many different things. We even got to do minor surgical procedures. I did a cat that had been in a fight.

我期待臨床職責。培訓中接觸許多工作,甚至做過小型手術。我處理過一隻打架受傷的貓。

Randall:

Yeah, I had to do some dental cleaning!

我做過牙齒清潔!

Candy:

I’ve not done that. What animal was it?

我還沒做過。是哪種動物?

Randall:

A rabbit!

一隻兔子!

Host:

And from what you’ve seen in your internships, what were the challenges of being a trainee veterinary nurse?

你們實習時遇到甚麼挑戰?

Candy:

I think it was learning not to be nervous with animals.

我得學會在動物面前不緊張。

Host:

Was that hard?

難嗎?

Candy:

At first, but it got better — I asked the experienced nurses for tips and copied them!

起初難,但後來改善了。我向資深護士請教並學習他們的做法。

Ian:

For me it was the shift work, you know, I had to be on call at night. Make sure you go to bed on time. That’s my advice!

對我而言是輪班,晚上也要候命。我的建議是準時睡覺!

Host:

How about you, Randall?

Randall,你呢?

Randall:

The biggest challenge for me personally was when a sick animal died. I had to learn to develop a strategy to cope with that one.

最大的挑戰是病重動物死亡,我得學會應對。

Candy:

Yeah, that’s a tough one.

對,那很難受。

Host:

Okay, let’s move on — what about the future? What can you do now? Any plans?

接下來談談將來。你們有甚麼計劃?

Extract from book: Inside the Virtual Jungle and Pets Online

The usage of virtual pets¹ has similarly increased with widespread, cheaper access to the internet (e.g. Alessi 2005; Cheng and Lewis 2012). In this connection, Y’Ev (2011) examined the use of virtual pets amongst adult users aged 60 and over in Hong Kong. The findings reveal that users usually become interested in virtual pets for a variety of reasons, as illustrated in the comments from these focus group participants:

隨著網絡更普及、價格更低,虛擬寵物的使用也增加。Y’Ev 研究了香港 60 歲或以上成年人,發現長者接觸虛擬寵物有不同原因。

It started out with me and my grandson, he’d come to stay and he taught me how to use the computer and then how to have a virtual pet, it’s wonderful. (May, 88, Mong Kok)

最初是孫兒教我用電腦和養虛擬寵物,很棒。(旺角,88 歲 May)

I really wanted a dog, but wasn’t allowed one in my apartment building so I got an online pet. Simple as that. (Wing, 68, Mei Fu)

我很想養狗,但大廈不准,於是養網上寵物。(美孚,68 歲 Wing)

¹ In this chapter, the definition of a virtual pet will follow that of Kohonen et al. (2010: xix), i.e. “a digital application which simulates online the experience of having a real pet.”

本章依 Kohonen 等人(2010)的定義:虛擬寵物是模擬真實飼養寵物經驗的網上數碼應用程式。

Article from the Hong Kong Times, November 2013

Foreign fish fall foul of the law

Have you been for a walk in a Hong Kong park recently? Did you see something big swimming in the water of the pond? Perhaps you have seen one of the notorious alligator gars. An alligator gar is a species of non-native fish which is threatening local native fish. Mr. Neelay Shah from the AFCD explains more. ‘Our studies have found that we are seeing fewer local fish in streams, ponds and lakes because the alligator gar is becoming dominant; they eat the local fish.’

你在香港公園池塘或許見過鱷雀鱔。這種外來魚威脅本地魚;漁護署的 Neelay Shah 說,牠們吃本地魚,令溪流和池塘的本地魚數量減少。

But how did they get there? ‘They’re released by owners after they buy them from pet shops, grow them and then they become too big to keep,’ says Mr. Shah. ‘We need to get the message out that releasing exotic pets like these into the wild is not a good idea. Eight months ago the Kowloon Exotic Pets Hospital started a scheme called Operation Gar. The hospital helps us by volunteering their services to relocate gars to Ocean Park. We are also in the middle of a joint campaign with the hospital that provides free workshops to educate people about the threat to the ecosystem if something is released into the wild. Check www.kexoticpets.com.hk or our website for details.’

主人從寵物店買魚,養大後因無法繼續飼養而放生。Shah 強調不應把珍奇寵物放到野外。八個月前醫院展開 Operation Gar,義務協助漁護署把鱷雀鱔遷往海洋公園,並合辦免費工作坊,教育公眾放生對生態系統的威脅。

Excerpt from the Elderly News magazine

Talking about the digital generation?

After all the fuss about Generation Y and the numerous reports in the media about the older generation not being able to do the simple things online, we asked you, our readers, to get in touch and tell us what you are doing online. To prove a point, and to provide a little challenge, we asked you to contact us — by SMS! Here are some samples from the hundreds of text messages we received. Congratulations to everyone who contacted us. Just shows that us oldies can still learn new tricks!

傳媒常說長者連簡單網上操作也做不到,因此我們請讀者透過短訊告訴大家如何使用網絡。以下選出數百則回覆中的幾則,證明長者也能學新事物。

I do everything online now — the shopping, talking to my grandchildren, my banking. I wish I’d had all of this when I was younger.

我現在上網購物、與孫兒聊天、處理銀行事務。真希望年輕時已有這些。

Eileen, 76, London

I’ve built up a pretty extensive breeding exchange programme of virtual birds online. Although I don’t trade them for money, I swap them for other birds I haven’t got.

我建立了龐大的網上虛擬雀鳥繁殖交換計劃。雖不賣錢,但會交換未擁有的雀鳥。

Kam, 80, Hong Kong

I’ve used the Internet to trace my family tree back four hundred years and found cousins I didn’t know I had on the other side of the world. We’re now in regular touch — all online!

我在網上追溯四百年家族史,找到身處世界另一端、從未知道的表親;如今定期網上聯絡。

Patrice, 66, France

Me and my friends have got about 6 online accounts each with different virtual pet sites and we breed virtual cats. We’re selling them to other online breeders. I tell you, we can make about 50 dollars a month each — good money if you’re retired.

我和朋友各有約六個不同虛擬寵物網站帳戶,繁殖虛擬貓再賣給其他玩家。每人每月約賺 50 美元,對退休人士不錯。

Bill, 69, Chicago

I keep virtual horses online with my husband. We’ve got a virtual ranch called Ponderosa. We’re the oldest virtual horse whisperers on the web!

我和丈夫養虛擬馬,還有一座名叫 Ponderosa 的虛擬牧場。我們大概是網上最年長的「馬語者」!

Letter in the Kowloon Herald

March 23, 2014

2014 年 3 月 23 日

Dear Editor,

編輯先生/女士:

I’m writing to express my anger about the Kowloon Exotic Pets Hospital. This hospital supports the exotic pet trade. It is doing this by helping people keep exotic pets and is only concerned about making money. It should be shut down immediately.

我對九龍珍奇寵物醫院非常不滿。它幫人飼養珍奇寵物,支持相關貿易,只顧賺錢,應立即關閉。

The trade in some exotic pets can have some serious effects. What if a pet owner no longer wants their pet and lets it go into the wild? This damages the ecosystem. Just look at the recent Hong Kong Times story about the alligator gars. Another point is that some exotic animals carry diseases and this can put the public in danger.

珍奇寵物貿易可能造成嚴重後果。主人棄養放生會破壞生態,鱷雀鱔便是例子。有些珍奇動物亦攜帶疾病,危及公眾。

I’m sure that others will agree with me.

我相信其他人也同意。

Yours faithfully,

此致

Mr. W. Squeers

W. Squeers 先生

Article from the Hong Kong Telegraph, March 2014

Orphan Pet Finds Hope

A recent arrival in Hong Kong has found a home after receiving an unfriendly welcome from a local family. Danny, a 0.8 metre corn snake was bought in a pet shop in Tsim Sha Tsui last month by a 16-year-old school student.

一條新來港的 0.8 米玉米蛇 Danny 被本地家庭棄養後找到了新家;牠上月由一名 16 歲學生在尖沙咀寵物店購買。

‘They just came into the clinic and gave me a bag with a snake in it!’ said Max Tong, the local vet. ‘So I rang my friends at the Kowloon Exotic Pets Hospital. They have a free programme; it’s fantastic — they take in all kinds of unwanted exotic pets and look after them until a new home can be found.’

獸醫 Max Tong 說,家庭把裝蛇的袋交到診所,他便聯絡九龍珍奇寵物醫院。醫院的免費計劃收留各種被棄養的珍奇寵物,照顧牠們直到找到新家。

Kerry Lam, from the Kowloon Exotic Pets Hospital explains, ‘There’s no way any exotic pet should be homeless, otherwise they can end up in the wild in Hong Kong. We’ll take any animal, no questions asked, and it’s all completely free of charge.’

醫院的 Kerry Lam 說,珍奇寵物不應無家可歸,否則可能流入香港野外。醫院免費接收任何動物,不追問原因。

Excerpt from Kowloon Exotic Pets Hospital annual report

6.1 Free Orphan Programme

This year the Orphan Programme was again run as a complimentary service to the community. The Orphan Programme Committee reports a summary of cases handled in the last five years (see Figure 1, below). A request has been put forward for one extra member of staff to be involved in the Programme on a full-time basis. It is this board’s recommendation that the funding requirement be discussed at the next Annual General Meeting scheduled for May, 2014.

本年度「孤兒計劃」繼續免費服務社區。委員會報告過去五年的個案數,並提出增聘一名全職員工。董事會建議於 2014 年 5 月的週年大會討論經費。

圖一:2009 至 2013 年處理個案數持續上升。

6.2 Voluntary Operations with Hong Kong Government

As part of the latest government drive in this area (see press release in Appendix 6), two full-time vets from the Hospital have been working with Mr. Neelay Shah from the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department in the last financial year. Their duties included, most notably, assisting the AFCD vets in raids on pet shops throughout Hong Kong in crimes related to exotic pets (see also Appendix 7). The Hospital envisages that such operations will continue in the next financial year.

配合政府最新行動,醫院兩名全職獸醫過去財政年度與漁護署 Neelay Shah 合作,包括協助突擊搜查涉嫌珍奇寵物罪行的寵物店。醫院預計下年度會繼續相關行動。
