It was two weeks ago that I noticed that I didn't see Lady (the cat) around. Every time I go to a supermarket, I would buy at least a couple of packs of cat food for her and her girls. The packets are mounting up but she is nowhere to be seen. Her kittens, Ebony and Ivory are missing her. The helpers are convinced that she has gone to nurse her new kittens. They all believed that she was pregnant again.
I love Lady but I kept my distance. I never felt like I should bond with any animals locally. Their lives are too tricky to manage. As for now, little Ebony and Ivory are still living with us. I would like to take them to a vet but it is something we don't do. It is just not the done thing. All I can is to feed them and keep them relatively healthy and loved to an extent.
Lady could possibly be somewhere nursing a new set of kittens. I try not to think too much of other possibilities. Some locals are just cruel... They are physically smaller but they are so capable of cruel acts...
