This morning on entering the
verandah, I saw a glass bottle with money plant lying down. The water was
spilt, spread and pebbles were scattered all around. I looked around and set it
back, though I was wondering how it happened. After some time it fell down in
the same place but along with a smaller bottle by its side. Again I set it back
and, now wanted to know how it happened but got no clue. Next time I heard the
bottle fall, I quickly ran to check out what it was…Now there it ran, a strong black
fat cat.
I closed all the windows, got
back to my daily chores waiting for my sister. I was expecting her to walk in
and suddenly I heard her scream loudly. She felt something soft in the shoe
rack while pulling out the slippers. With plants all around our house, I was
petrified even to check out what it was. My husband peeped in and saw two
shiny eyes with a black face, that one’s of a kitten... :) It was relief for me
and giggles for them.
Joining the dots, actually the
mother cat had put her kitten in the shoe box to protect it and was checking
out on its safety every now and then.Everytime it jumped in from the window, it
pushed my plant bottles and they fell down..2nd relief..that was a
cat for sureJ.Now
came my real check..My husband started vacating the shoe rack and was setting
it to be a comfy bedroom for the little kitten..I thought its for an hour or so, the mummy cat will come
and take it back,
Morning turned noon, and the cat
lover came home from office soon.He now wants milk for the cat at lukewarm
temperature.. I was wondering, if the next thing he & my son want to do is
naming this cat and also labling the shoe rack as Kitiie’s new home !!!
A few minutes later we saw the
mummy cat making rounds and waiting for us to leave her baby alone. We went
inside and quietly watched out for sometime. The cat came in walking in a
typical lion style, picked up its baby from the box by neck and ran away..may
be it doubted its safety in our house.
Mother the ultimate protector.
