An introductory note Maggie is the latest four legged to join us. She has been with us for four months now. All the pictures here have been clicked once we were absolutely sure that she was going to make it. 2nd April, 2016 I choose to begin with Maggie. I don’t know how this story will […]

The Overconfident Midwife
Animals litter. Generally, human beings are not required in the scene of action. Ask Puddy. But once in a while we all have to jump in! Dinky, our black lab, was the kind who demanded the family to stand attendance when she was doing something so important as littering. Dinky had been blessed with buck teeth […]
Turbo
You can see Turbo’s photograph. Would you ever imagine that this beautiful specimen of a dog had to be given a home? Well, believe it or not he is another of our rescued animals! T had taken one of our cats to the vet. She met a young couple who had brought their Labrador pup […]
Strange
I must admit that almost everyone at home is better than me as far as taking care of a sick animal is concerned. If the animal is on the mend, it’s a different story but otherwise I would rather it was somebody else was keeping track of the distressed breathing! I hate animals dying on […]
General Dyer
One fine Sunday morning, we had a guest. A four legged one, so he was welcomed with open arms. When Baba went out to get the morning newspaper, he came back, grinning, with a cat who was purring lovingly, following him. He was obviously a house cat judging by the ease with which he mixed […]

Basket case
“Baby blankets… Oh! The children (meaning cats) will love it…” “I think we need new cat bowls. What do you think of these steel ones?” “Look a basket, so many baskets! Shall we…???” On one such trip Ma and Baba came home with three baskets for the cats. One for every size. (The vision of 29 […]
mama, i am hungry…right now mama, right now!!
A normal day in our house begins at 3:30 am. At 3:30 in the morning, our cats feel peckish. It’s time for breakfast! It’s really weird to be held hostage till you serve them food but it has happened several times. Say, you get up to go to the bathroom. When you shut the door […]
Rules of the jungle…
We are a family of six…ty or so. At least, last when I checked. We have this ‘catendence’ which is our version of keeping track of the pets who own us. So it is very school attendance-ish except that teachers never have to look under tables or open up drawers to check out where the […]
A slice of the family
Cats rule. Dogs get bullied.
Dogs display affection. Cats couldn’t care less if you didn’t exist.
Dogs chase cats. Cats don’t trust dogs.
Haven’t we heard such blanket statements time and again???
Well, at our place every rule is broken.
But before we go into the details, here’s a sneak peak of our ever growing family.
