Park Adventures

Bujang in the ixora park...

He was rather nervous to begin with as it was a long time ago that we last went here. Once he got out of his carrier, he made a beeline for this very small clearing and investigated the bushes looking for good grass. There was one or two which he munched. he kept looking up at the flats as there was alot of noise going on upstairs. Then he sat under the bushes to look at the view. he did not get much exercise this evening.

Then as he was busy sniffing at columns, Billy Boy came to visit us. Billy Boy has taken Cal's usual place. I took some close up shots of him and was quite surprised that he let me as he would only eat with Cousin R. then as though he was on the clock, he raced up the steps into one of the blocks. the auntie tells me that he lives in that block of flats too.

Billy Boy...the newest addition to the WildBunch...

Billy Boy (Cousin R named him) is not strictly a community cat. He has a home but eats someplace else like someone in a moveable feast. He is now fat and healthy and I would like to think it was thanks to us that he is this way. His family does not feed him, allowing him to roam freely. He used to be really thin and he also had sores but now no more. Since he has a family, I didn't think it would be right to collar him. I don't really want his 'family' to look for me...in case they object to it.

Minah saying good afternoon...

Yes I am looking well thanks...

I am as flexible as usual...

The sun feels good on my back..

I saw Minah yesterday when I went to buy cat food for the amigos. She greeted me softly and then did not want any biscuits. Rather she wanted me to play for a while. She turned about showing me her new collar. Actually it was an old collar from Ms Akira. I had debated whether I should put a collar on her as the last time she had it, she got into so much trouble. Or rather some @#$% boy had pulled her collar and dragged her along the road (or so the aunty told me). She then had a bloody lip and her leg was hurt. She was so fierce that it was impossible to get her to the hospital. We had put her under close observation and were glad that she recovered in a matter of one week. Looking at her today, no one would have thought she had had such a traumatic episode in her life.

I decided to put the collar because of what had happened to Callie. If something did happen to Minah and someone sees her, then I hope someone would have the kindness to call me. So fatBoy and Putih each has one.

Cousin R and I debated whether we should put one on The Visitor or Billy Boy (as Cousin R had named him) as he has a home somewhere. However as he keeps coming to dinner and we had fed him to the healthy size that he is now, we decided we should. It seemes that his family has abandoned him although he does go 'home' at night. Cousin R had spoken to the boy who used to own Billy and he told her that his father had refused to feed him. I think that was why he was so thin when he found us. He has an ear tip though so I guess he was a community cat before he was 'rescued' by someone who later abandoned him. Billy Boy now spends much of his time in the carpark. The old auntie says we now have 4 cats. Callie used to be one of the four. I'm sure Callie would not mind us having Billy Boy at all :)
