Hi...
I am from Pakistan. My story is pretty long, but pl bear with me.
It rained tremendously a week ago. The very next morn I found a poor little kitten, grey and white, mewing pathetically in my car porch. (I have seen a stray adult cat with the same markings around...its probably the mom)...turns out she abandoned the kitten. The poor thing was so small it didnt even have teeth. It couldnt even lap milk...just sucked. It started sucking my fingers hungrily..I felt so sorry for it. My mother simply refused to allow me to keep it. So I hid it in a box in the garden bushes...and gave it milk. (used bread and cotton to help it suck the milk..even used straw) I kept it hidden for three days...cz my mom threatened to hve it thrown away somewhere. It would peep out of the bushes as soon as it heard me! I decided to nme it Esperanza (which means "hope")..but since the name was so loong....I changed it to Kovu.
I used to leave milk around for it..and it started to lap after a few days.
Now its been a week since I "rescued" her. My parents have finally gotten around to accept her...since shes so adorable. We were about to go out on a walk one night...when Kovu saw us leave...she waddled after us and actuall ended up following us on the road! this sort of melted my parents' heart. And I ended up carrying her.
Initially my plan was to help her survive till she could fend for herself...but now I think she has adoped me...and I have adopted her.!
So "Kovu" is the new arrival in my pet family.
