We went to Sunday market and my uncle was so excited to show us this huge insect which are fried and can be eaten. I know, Y.U.C.K!

But my mom was so happy as there were so many pots and different kinds of flowers selling. She was so amazed to find baby pitcher plants as well. Even I was amazed as I always thought that they only can be seen at Mount Kinabalu. Ok now I know, I have zero IQ. I took a picture of it with my phone.

The Sunday Market was big, cramped and crowded. I felt quite stuffy while waiting forever for my mom and aunty. I bought a mini knitted sling bag for RM8. My mom bought some necklaces from a China lady. A pendant sold for Rm25 and my mom managed to get it for Rm12 only. The lady came after us and said, ” (after translated) Okla okla, give you la give you la.” I still remember my mom’s sneaky face trying to hold her victory laugh when she paid.

We spent almost two hours there, and we can’t find the huge fried insects that my uncle was so keen on showing us. So we left Mirage to Wisma Satok which was just across the street. Mom bought some clothes while I bought a stainless steel watch, for only RM60.

Kuching was really a place for tourist like me. The city is full of cats. But I don’t recall seeing any real ones on the street though. But for a cat-lover like myself, Cat Museum indeed is one of the best places to go!


It was the 2nd day when we visited the Cat Museum. Free entrance but with every camera you bring in, you will be charged differently according to the type of your camera. Including camera phones. I just paid for my normal camera and my relative sneaked in her digital camera. They don’t check your bags actually. I scanned the pictures I took so some of them look a bit blur here. There were so many cats in different forms and sizes, crystals, statues in different styles, paintings, Garfield, Hello Kitty and etc.

There were few galleries with different themes. Like western and eastern cats’ drawings. I love the eastern’s.

And then the famous chinese fortune cat.

Er, sweets?

London bridge is falling down… falling down… fallling down…

Farting cats.

Crystal cats.

Fishing cat. See? Even cat finds fishing is damn sien.

Porcelains?

And Doraemon is a cat too!

This is the Thailand version of Doraemon, I think.

You can find these in earrings in accessories shops at Riverbank Side.

This looks like a constipated Lazy.

These looked like something from The Mummy. Egyptian statues.

My mummy in orange and my aunty in pink. I think they have this love cats at Tmn Sahabat as well. But only one of them if I’m not wrong.

There are some in my camera phone but my laptop’s infrared is not working. Seriously a lot of pictures to take. They even have cats that appeared in stories and fairytales. One session for Garfield and a cupboard full of Hello Kitty’s products.

Like my aunty said, “You never come to Kuching if you never visit the Cat Museum.”
