It is a weird feeling; a feeling that one’s own baby was being given away, when Brownie’s new owner came to collect it.
Auntie El took in a 5-week old kitten, Brownie, who was missing its mummy. Mummy Eliz was asked to kitten-sit Brownie for a day, until a new owner is found for her.
And that was how Brownie got to spend 22 hours in our humble 3-rm flat.
Like most city kids, Mummy Eliz was taught to ignore strays, and never had the chance to own a domestic cat, thus this was a most memorable experience.
Brownie was fed once every 2-3 hours, and fell asleep thrice on Mummy Eliz’s lap, twice in our bookcase, and twice on our kids’ red sofa chairs.
It was missing its cat mummy badly, thus it craved attention from us even more.
Princess Chelsea wanted to believe that the new owner is also having Brownie for just a night, like we did, and for the moment, she is contented believing that.
It makes bidding farewell to Brownie easier for her.
