2 Little Kitties

Last Thursday night, Dear Dear was smoking at the corridor when he alerted me to go outside. He excitedly pointed out that there was a small, very small kitten hiding behind a water pipe just outside our unit. He was so helpless and trying to hide far away from us. I always thought kittens love humans and more often than not, they will follow us and meow affectionately rather than hide. We tried to approach him (seriously, i really dunno if its a him or her...) but he was so scared that he ran so fast that I got a terrible shock! First, he ran to hide at my neighbour's door, just in between the gate and the door. We tried to move closer to it, it meowed so loudly and ran to hide at a very dangerous ledge (and we live on a very high floor!). I was so worried for kitty!

Just then, my neighbours walked out of the lift and came to see what Dear Dear and I are looking at. They are a very nice middle-age couple and got pretty worried about the little kitty on the ledge. There was nothing very much we could do so we went back into our flats and I messaged my two friends who kept cats to see what I can give Kitty as food. I know I shouldn't feed strays... but he's so small I'm sure he wouldn't know how to get food for himself, and even worse now, he's not even at a coffee-shop etc, where he can find food. He's in this huge concrete jungle! Sigh.... Tried to give him some milk but couldn't find him anywhere when I went to find him again.

The next morning, kitty (which i always affectionately calls him meow meow..) was hiding behind that water pipe again! I was rushing out so i quickly pour some milk in a plastic bowl and left it some distance away from him, fearing that he will freak out again. When I came back after 3 or 4 hours, though he was nowhere to be seen, I saw that the bowl was moved near (found out that Dear Dear shifted the milk nearer to him...) to where he was just now and it was empty! Quite happy that he drank it! At least I know that he wouldn't be starving!! I went back into my house and sat on the couch using my laptop. I got excited when I heard meowing outside so I quickly opened the door to see if Meow Meow had returned. To my amusement, it was the Uncle, my neighbour, meowing, to check if Meow Meow was around. He's so cute! He told me that he tried to lure Meow Meow in (from the uber dangerous ledge...) with some fish and apparently he succeeded when he came out to check. I thought he was so kind (not like the one living upstairs..i shall talk about it later...). Anyway, I bought  can food from the pet shop that day, hopefully if Meow Meow was still around, he could eat it. My other neighbours were very concerned over Meow Meow too..It's nice to know that I have kind neighbours around isn't it!

For the next few days, Meow Meow was always resting at the ledge on the high floors and meowing quite loudly every now and then.  Vincent came over  to my place on Friday night and he told me he saw another one at the void deck. Yes...Meow Meow was meowing loudly trying to "talk" to the grey kitten at the void deck. And you know what... they actually found each other! Dear Dear excitedly alerted me again when he saw TWO kitties, Meow Meow (black) and the grey kitten running around together on our level! They are so adorable! the grey one was even smaller!! The meowing stopped after they found each other...They actually did!! How sweet!

I fed them once a day ( I was happy to see other people placing food for the kittens too! I wasn't the only one!), hoping that they'll be less afraid of humans and when they are stronger I can lead them down. I really hope to keep them and provide for them but I can't. I have Kele who will freak out and get all gan jiong and furthermore, I've got tenants staying with me. Sigh...Dear Dear did tell me that I can't take care of them for long. I know...but I get pretty worried for that 2 小不点...sigh... Grow big and strong quickly... so that you can take care of yourselves...

It was very heart-warming when i realised that Meow Meow was getting less afraid of me.  He actually popped out from behind a pillar to look at what I was doing last night! So cute! Though he still didn't dare to come near me and retreat a little when I go near, I thought that was really an improvement already! He's little head popping out from behind the pillar, you should see how adorable that was! The other grey kitten which i had decided to call him 小不点, was still very wary of me...he still backs off when he see humans. Hopefully he will get use to seeing me too! I watched them lapped up the food and water...adorable...

Ok...now i shall go on to write about the not-so-nice neighbour.  I was at my corridor when i saw an Uncle using a box trying to dunno do what to Meow Meow (that was when 小不点 still wasn't around...) when Meow Meow was on the ledge. He's trying to catch him and but hello, does he have any common sense? He's just scaring Meow Meow and forcing him further and further out to the ledge! and that was the highest floor on our flat! I told Dear Dear and Dear Dear got so angry and went up to "talk" to him. You know, Dear Dear don't talk nicely when he's angry...So actually, Dear Dear scolded him! hahaha! Nice one Dear Dear! Then, that uncle went to get his wife and came back to argue with us but Dear Dear damn fierce one loh...aiya those who knows him will know la.. muahahha...He just scolded the shit out of uncle and auntie...We felt so angry! I'm glad Dear Dear was around! They deserved the scolding! Why try to put a harmless, defenseless little kitten in danger!! sigh...

See? We have all kinds of people...

Another eight year old boy asked me f I had seen the kitten.  he loved it very much and told me his grandmother gave the kitten food too! He told me that the grandmother told him the cat will bring good luck and they will 发财！Hmm.. I dun understand the theory but you can see how a different perspective made you a happier person (im quoting Dear Dear). That not-nice uncle found the presence of a kitten irritating but look at the grandma...:)

Haiz... I know some people dislikes animals. Nobody is forcing you to hug and kiss them but just leave it alone at least?
