2025/05/30: Catured

April was flying by fast

and suddenly interrupted by

a baby kitten walking in

with a badly infected eye

*

and there you go  

taking care of a kitten recovering from surgery

making sure my fat cat didn’t feel abandoned

*

the surgery left him with one eye

but could tell he was doing much better than

having a horrible looking eye that could burst anytime

*

it is funny to see

how the cats have totally different characters

and they almost don’t interact at all

except being thrown a few punches

after some sniffing

*

i was mad at my cat at first

since the kitten was clearly suffering from his injury

but cat being cat

she showed no empathy okay

*

but as the kitten was recovering

these punches don’t post threat to him anymore

in fact he will quickly jump away

when he was being sniffed

*

the funny thing is

my big cat never seems to mind

whenever the kitten is eating from her bowl

like after he finishes his share of food

that’s when she will just look on

and i have to step in by taking the kitten away

just to make sure she has at least eaten something

*

the kitten’s parents drop by separately

from time to time to look at the kitten from far

they seem super guilty and acknowledge

their act of child abandonment

like whenever I tell the kitten his papa or mama is here

and show him where the parent is

the parent will just run or go into hiding

*  

wait i was supposed to write about my work in April

but ended up writing a post dedicated to my cats

but cats are the reason i stay in my job, right?

especially with two of them to feed now
