Tisha

It was a Friday (19 Sept '08) morning. I had already called in to say I'd be late for work (emergency of sorts at home) and was dashing out to the apartment's management office. I heard a "meow" and thought it was my li'l Boo but... no, there was a kitty at my doorstep!

She was very "sociable" and not the least bit afraid of me. In fact, she looked quite happy to see me but.. I was in a hurry - sorry kitty!

She was still there when I got back about 10 minutes later and since I was to wait for the guy from the management office to call, I had a little time to spare. So, I got kitty some food and water. Beyond the door, my own little kitties could sense her presence and didn't look too pleased. The call came in, the guy wasn't going come over to check out (the crack in) my bathroom ceiling and I had to dash off to work.

By the time I came back from work that night, kitty was gone... Kitty had gone to my neighbour's place upstairs. Kitty obviously enjoys human company and sought it out. Kitty also had a very bad wound on her back. My neighbours daughter had really wanted to keep poor kitty but her daddy wouldn't hear of it. So...., yes, I eventually took kitty in officially on 21 September 2008.. Yeah.., I know - SUCKER!


Kitty in her assigned basket.. and that's the really bad wound on her back..

Kitty is a curious one and didn't remain in her basket for long and was off to check-out her new environment. My Girl was sleeping on my bed at the time and was awakened by the unfamiliar "meows" of the new kitty.. and the expression on Girl's face when she discovered the new kitty was PRICELESS! See for yourself!

I don't know that cat.. who the heck are you??!!

Hey, new kitty.. Whoever you are, I'll be watching you..

None of my li'l darlings took to the new kitty at first but that was only natural.. just need a bit of time.. Of course, I had to name her and settled for Tisha 'coz she was a sort of tortoiseshell (coat of a mish-mash of a few colours) type.

Boo was the first to become pally with Tisha and they now get along so well. Mechi is friendly but not too chummy and Girl's just cordial.


But they all definitely get along during meal time!

Tisha's settled in nicely, her wound has improved, she's gained a bit of weight and looking a whole lot "prettier" but she was pretty cat to begin with anyway..
