I have always loved animals. Cats and dogs specially. My mom still tells me the stories of how i used to hold our cat in one hand and suck my thumb in another when i was a kid! Naming pets is something that people do out of whim. May be on how they feel when they first look at the animal or how it behaves etc. our first cat was named 'ಹೊಟ್ಟೆ ಡುಮ್ಮಿ ' literally meaning 'fat tummy'! that's because it used to sincerely give birth to 3 kittens every 3 months!

kittens usually die young or just disappear. However the one we kept was named 'ಚಿನ್ನಿ'. It had golden fur. a tom cat. Now we have its girlfriend at home which i've named 'bekkanna' even though its a female cat.

'curiosity killed the cat' they say. But i guess that's the nature of cats. climbing on trees, trying to catch birds are all in a day's work for our cat! it plays till eternity with a wire or a string, trying to catch it! fighting with our dog is one more daily chore!
someone said ' women and cats do as they please. men and dogs must relax and get used to the idea'. I think  this is one of the reasons why some people do not like cats or women! unlike dogs, cats come and go as they please. they never obey your orders if they do not like it. once if they sit on your lap purring happily the next it might just scratch you everywhere and run away. But once you become friends with a cat it'll always love you.

now we have 3 more cute kittens. Yet to open their little eyes to the world. wonderful creatures. 

new kittens

the next time you are walking and a cat crosses you don't see it as a bad omen but think of it as 1 more of cat's adventures. keep loving:-)
