1. The cats: When I was leaving Mumbai I told Top Cat to take care of Mum. It's such a loyal cat, it sat outside the window for two hours the day I was in the train. When mum got tired and slept a little bit on the sofa itself- close to the window, Toppy entered home. Mum was startled when she woke up and told her to go back. Toppy left. After a few days, my sister narrated how Toppy has been coming with her children. The kittens have become a part of our family with my parents (especially my father) preparing meals especially for them. Today I witnessed this love and affection. It's wonderful to see my parents fussing over them. I like how engaged they are :) Those are the kittens before and after dinner. They remind me of my sisters and me except that we no longer fight when there are goodies to eat.
