before they went missing

there's nothing wrong with your computer or laptop screen...they are in black and white.
yup, no other colours but white with black spots or all almost black
these photos were taken when they were barely a few days old, before they went missing.

feeding time . I think they are the third generations from this mummy cat.


the two big sisters( I think they are the second generation ), napping time or rather relaxing time.

manjanyer, mother and daughter, not for long, you have those four other baby kittens to share your mummy's love with, love is sharing, love is caring.......

.

They are back.........

They have been gone for more than two months.The mother took them away from the comfort of the tiny cupboard of our home to "'don't know where" until today, out of the blue, we heard baby kittens meowing somewhere.

Suddenly, i heard my son cried, "They are still alive!".i rushed to my kitchen, opened the folding door and the grill and true enough, there they were, only three of them ( there were four) standing at the edge of my neighbour's house's roof.

I guess, the mother finally decided that it was safe for her to bring out her babies in the open. no wonder she was acting kinda weird lately. She kept coming to the back kitchen and meowing her heart out to us, which was kinda strange because we had put her food outside, so she couldn't be hungry, but we didn't know at the time.

newborn

the look...the hug....the warmth.....the tenderness......
captured in these few shots taken by my kids last nite



we discovered that the mother had given birth to four new kittens. looks like the two ( earlier four )kittens ( now kittens no more ) have new brothers and sisters.

the love of a mother, even cats have feelings and protective over their newborns. How snugly close she held her babies in her arm and leg too!

love at first sight...

It was love at first sight. the minute I lay my eyes on these gorgeous plant, I fell inlove with it instantly. I had to have it.

Similar but not the same

What do you think, any resemblance?

well..almost...



My daughter came up to me with the kitten inside the bag, don't worry, the cat is not suffocated in the bag. She just wanted to show me that our cat looks like the cat on that wh*skas bag.

I think it does, don't you?

kittens in the garden

There were four kittens initially.After a while, one left the group (to the other world, but not to worry, cats have nine lives right, so they keep coming back)

Then, there were three as shown in these pics, but not for long, cos this is not their latest photo. As I am writing this, there are only two of them left. Princess, the white one, my youngest daughter's favourite died recently.

The mother is not seen here in the picture. she came to us not long ago.everytime she comes, we feed her. She is not ours and we do not know who she belongs to. We didn't take her in for health reason., not her health but our kids'.

This is in fact not her first batch of kittens but the second I think. None of her kittens survived , not during the birth but after. From that experience, she became extra cautious and over protective over her babies. She always tried to bring them into the house but we couldn't allow that, so what my hubby did was if they couldn't come into the house, so why don't we bring the house to them? Really, we made a house for them, using our kids tent and placed it on our front porch.

I have always liked cats and kittens alike. Ever since I was young ( many, many years ago.....)our house ( my parent's ) was never catless. There was Chomel, Tompok, Putih, Tamtih,and so many other names which I cannot recall.

they are such cute and adorable creatures and they would just melt any hearts who see them ( for most people but not all ).however, As I have my first baby in 1995, cats were no longer allowed into our house for health reason as I had mentioned earlier, so that is why they , the kittens are only allowed to play outside.

Is that a tree house?

There's a big purple house and i noticed that there's another house, much smaller with purple roof this time but it's on a tree! Is it a tree house? Is she trying to tell us something? We did plan to build one for the kids, but which tree? we don't have that many trees in our small compound, let alone a tree big and strong enough for a tree house, so i guess she can only have her treehouse in this picture of hers.

I like this drawing, so colourful, so happy, so ....every thing that it should be ....coming from a five year old who has no worries in the world.
