Cats cared for in AP

Today, I read an article in Deccan Herald in Bangalore which says cats are being cared for in a religious place in Ranga Reddy district near Hyderabad(AP,India). In this hot summer where the cats struggle under the burning sun to get some fluids, this article created a good feeling not just because it is linked to cats, but also due to the fact that the general public itself is so much caring towards the cats there, feeding the cats with milk!
Of course it is only out of some religious belief, but the care taken for the cats is good nonetheless!
Similar practises of feeding cats are present at other places in India like Gujarat, UP etc too..
Hope this continues to inspire other areas..!!

The eyes of an angel!

On friday on my way back home, I walked close to the bushy tailed cat and looked into its eyes! And the expression on its face was so pure and full of so much positive energy that I wanted to look at it for a longer time!

The cat with a bushy tail!

No! Dont go by the title of this post and assume this to be some story. This isnt a fictitious story but a real one that I have witnessed today morning at my pick up point.
I spotted a golden cat with a long bushy tail being taken by its owner with a chain around its neck. Once, a couple of months back, I came very near to it and it meowed, probably greeting me "hellooo!". And today it sat next to a chicken cage. After playing with itself for some time, its owner lifted it up and put it on top that cage.
But it is soo curious and uncomfortable in that cranky, small space that it slid down verrrry cautiously and somehow got into the cage section below it(the cage's door was open!). It was a sight to behold!
And by the time it settled into its compartment, I had to start travelling to office from there!
Memorable morning indeed!

A cat-dog combo at a house entrance!

Recently I have seen two warring animals tied up near the entrance of a house while on my way back home from office: A cat and a dog. I really doesn't understand how these two bear being next to each other, but they seemed to be comfortable. Or maybe because the cat was too small to be making any impact on the dog! Overall, the situation reminded me of another one where our ex-home dog got a special treatment from our ex-home cat one evening in 2007! It kept scratching the dog and it did nothing except turning its head away front the cat! Those days we used to have lots of cat fights between our home cat and other rogue cats. And sometimes it pounces on us from nowhere, assuming us to be some sheep and imagining itself to be a tiger! Cats can be very brave indeed! Especially our cat! There is a video of how it was climbing down the window grill after alerting us about a snake outside(in 2006 or 2007)! I ll post it soon..
