Teh Peng's 9D-8N stay in my house
For 9 days i was put to take care of this cute little kitten. Since the day he came into my care, my life was changed.
Hee! It's not easy to take care of him. One would need patience to feed him 1hr/meal, 3 meals a day. When he keeps mieow-ing, i would need to attend to him. When he don't eat, i worry. When he don't poo and pee, i worry. When he keeps sleeping, i worry. When i am out of my house, i worry. When i bring him out in the carrier, on public transport, i worry he will get dizzy.
I miss him after i return him to Singing nanny... He has been very obedient during the few days. I like to tickle him on his belly and pat him to sleep...even i slept while doing that too...haha! When i woke up, i saw him looking at me, seems like he didn't want to disturb my sleep by moving away from my arms.
he is just 8 weeks old.... stomach still small, so if feed a lot he will vomit, cos stomach cannot take it... well, growing up is a process, we need to be patient on this part... can't expect him to be of the size of the stray cats running around our void deck, right?
Loving an animal is similar to loving the people around us. You don't love the person only when he/she is cute, but to accept the person as a whole, bearing what might seem unpleasant to us, while enjoying the fun and laughter with the person.
Taking care of this small creature has taught me some lessons.
