The nature of man and colonialism were big themes. This piece is more about the nature of creatures and professions... I was thinking more about this and may expand the piece a little.Rajshreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03213783406948570746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9104440159456994545.post-7179363256007297882012-02-26T21:46:02.363-08:002012-02-26T21:46:02.363-08:00It's a long story, but we had a stray cat give...It's a long story, but we had a stray cat give birth to kittens in our yard -- in the end only one was left, and it cried for an entire day and entire night, having been abandoned by the mother and the rest.<br /><br />Finally I called city hall and asked them if they had a service that took in stray cats -- I figured as this was a kitten it'd have a chance at finding a home before the put it to sleep.<br /><br />They said to call back after it had died and they would clean it up for me.<br /><br />I finally gave in, started feeding the kitten and then luckily found a home for it.<br /><br />I sprinkle white vinegar around the house a little now, the neighborhood stray cats don't like its smell and stay away ... I don't want have to deal with another abandoned kitten again.<br /><br />What a close call ...Matt Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09276531398959895160noreply@blogger.com
