Life is nothing but a loving meow. That one I coined, I confess. And motherhood is the most beautiful feeling on earth. This one is likely to get more people to nod I guess. I watched my kids being born, Kit Kit’s water bag burst when she was seated on my lap. And just like […]

The longest day
This story needs to be told. It’s not one that I want to relive by even writing about it. Yet this being a reality one just can’t brush it aside though I want to believe it was an aberration and not a norm. The day was a typical Sunday. Hectic. More so because there were […]
Litty – the magic cat
Puddy littered. This was certainly not her first litter but it was definitely her last. Somehow we had just not been able to muster up enough courage to get her operated and Puddy being Puddy, was not to be stopped by pills, unlike some of our other cats. We were rather worried as her half-yearly […]
The day I fell from grace
One moment you are the only one in someone’s life and next moment… I am sure some of you must have experienced this and will agree, it really hurts. Maybe, yesterday’s boyfriend has left you or the kid who hero worshipped you discovered your Achilles heel? Whosoever it is, it can make you really feel […]
Patch

When it happens to one that is young or when it happens ‘unnecessarily’ it leaves a permanent wound that never quite fills up. When we moved into our last […]

The brave four legged
Shifting into a new house always began with a promise – “We will not repeat the same mistakes.” This basically meant, not encouraging strays, and not getting too attached to any new animal. Since every new neighbourhood has at least one opinionated, excessively loud individual who can mobilize the entire colony into animal haters, we […]
Guardians of the food chain
Originally posted on four legged nonsense:
As said before, we were not this bad always. When exactly we graduated from ‘animal lovers’ to… is difficult to pinpoint. When I got married I was a dog lover (PLEASE note just dogs) and my husband a nature lover – all into plants and birds, the sky, etc.…
The Escape Artists #1
If you think that all cats are the same, think again! No two cats are alike. All have their very own oddities. Open your needle work box at our place and the next moment you will be fielding Bijli who just can’t stay away from needle and thread. Let the cap of your pen fall to the […]
