Personal, Technical & Opinionated
I’m a sucker and kittens know it.
Last night I was coming home and a kitten followed me up the stairs to our place. I left it outside and shut the door. Well our eldest cat started up a real ruckus and was meowing like crazy.
So I opened the door to see what he would do, fully expecting him to bolt out to join the little one outside.
He sat and waited.
The little one (turned out to be a she-cat) came in and started sniffing around. I sat on the floor to watch how they would interract together, and she came over and dumped herself in my lap, with legs everywhere.
Well Buster-boy (our youngest cat) was soooo jealous. I have never seen him so upset.
So the little girl was returned outside, where she is now sleeping outside our door.
Cats around our neighbourhood are generally well looked after, and there are a number of older people who feed them (and they hunt any rats), so I’m not too worried about her… but she was such an affectionate little thing that she’d make an ideal pet.
*sigh*
If only my place were bigger.

I write about many things, life in Singapore, life in Australia, but lately it's been a mish-mash of how-to's and about things that I love. It's a personal blog with a tech focus. If you want my drumming stuff - it's moved to Drum Stuff.

I’m proud of you. I can imagine how hard it would have been to put the little girl back outside. But I don’t think the boys would have been impressed had you kept her.
