Heya.

You guys must know that I’m an animal lover, and frequent tweeting or blogging about cats or dogs around me (mostly cats, tho).

So, I got bad news and good news.

Remember Bebek? The stray kitten my friend and I rescued a couple month ago?

Here’s the bad news. He died because of distemper not long after the last post I made about him. He only stayed with me in 3 short weeks when the distemper symptom started to show. After that, his condition was declining just in the count of hours. Took him to the vet and get him treated, after 2 times getting IV drips and lots of meds, and he wasn’t getting any better, the vet said that we could only pray for the best. And Bebek was gone 3 days later.

My friend and I were so sad we still cried in the office the day after. There are no pet cemetery, so we buried him in a cemetery nearby. This is the last picture of Bebek…

My last 2 cats were died because of distemper, and now Bebek… I was heartbroken again.

So, after that, came along the good news.

Last month a female cat that came frequently to my room for food was giving birth. One day she came to my room and I saw her belly had already gone. I didn’t know where she gave birth, but a week later, she moved her kittens behind the water cistern near my room. It was so close, but it’s outside my balcony so I couldn’t reach them.

There they go. Two cute little furballs that I’m dying to touch.

And so, yesterday it was raining so hard, that place was getting wet. At night after I returned home, Okaasan (that’s what I called the female cat) meowing repeatedly, asking me to move her kittens, which I couldn’t. It was dark, and I didn’t have any ladder to get them from behind the water cistern.

I just told her to move her babies herself because I couldn’t (I dunno if she understand or not), and not long after that, she finally brought her babies into my room. LOL

And here they are, nice, warm and cozy inside the basket. While Okaasan was still a bit wary of me since she’s a stray and not used sleeping near humans. But she endured it for the sake of her babies. XDD



In the pic she was fighting with her drowsiness and tried her best to stay awake.

Both kittens are clean, healthy and fat! Okaasan is a very good mother. ^^

Look at those big round eyes. Ain’t she a cutie?
