Babies are two weeks old!

KITTY PERRY has just experienced her first motherhood. Yes, we did not get her spayed in time. Particularly a sensitive topic at our household, when one finds spaying a costly and somewhat "unnecessary measure" for a stray like Kitty. Two weeks on, and then we realized its the best choice for the long term. 


At a tender young age of 14 days, these young kittens are starting to see the world on their own. Eyelids start to loosen themselves, pupils start to develop and blue eyes appear. Their noses start twitching as they seek to develop their sense of smell. Of them two, Blanche is the quieter, timid one. She barely moves around, unlike Tiger, who gets frisky with his mother. Sometimes when the mother heads out for sips of fresh  air, Tiger would let out meows so loud, we thought a witch is coming. In the end, those meows would trigger soft, subtle, yet worrying meow from the mother as she hurriedly enters into the house, only to be seen running back to her babies, while licking them with a relieved look on her face. It would take us more than a second to look at the times, when these little babies could hardly move a paw or two.

At this week, we are pretty sure of their genders, Blanche is a girl, Tiger a boy. Just like Kitty, I feel so proud to be guardian to these beautiful specimen of nature and God's creation, which always come back to my extremely offensive and prejudiced nature towards animal abusers. Hoping animal laws in Malaysia would change for the better in the future, at the meantime I will continue doing my part as an animal rescuer.
