.....ha as i lay lazing in the crisp morning sun that is streaming through the window of' the house' i reflect upon the days gone by.its been a good life till now and as i foresee the rest of my days would pass off without much of a fuss. Actually i don't belong to this house .....but certain turn of events lately has brought me in contact with this household .Talking of the household it brings mixed feelings ,the house has 2 occupants .... one is a' skirt' and another is a ' shorts '.Skirt used to be afraid of me in the beginning but slowly has understood my needs and that i am harmless,and is the one who pours the milk and the cat food in my bowl every morning.Talking of cat food 'O my God again that same tuna flavour Whiskas...when will these guys learn to shop ?what about duck,rabbit or chicken flavour for a change?..sigh guess i have to start doing my own shopping now onwards.

Well as its summer now my day starts at about seven with good stretching , yawning and the usual licking .After which i make the necessary noises at the closed door of' the house'.Its either skirt or shorts....generally its the skirt who opens the door like after five minutes delay . I enter conveying my displeasure as well as the usual' good mornings ' and 'slept well' stuff. Generally i am not that hungry in the morning so its a bite here and a sip there and i am done.Then i go about exploring the kitchen,bathrooms and all other rooms were i am authorised to go.By this time 'shorts' comes down and talks to me as well as to 'skirt' some gibberish which i try to understand but till date my efforts have been futile.'Shorts' always plays truant with me,fiddling with my ears,whiskers,tail and treating me in the most unladylike manner .i totally dislike such behaviour and have complained this to' skirt' who at times comes to my rescue but not much has changed,anyways its all a part of life i guess.
I take my place at the window ledge as the world comes to life around me -delivery trucks with milk,newspaper guy,cars ,buses,office goers ,school kids some of whom knock on the window and try to scare me off .......all hurrying past me...sitting on the ledge i feel iam watching a 70mm "bollywood" movie cause the script remains more or less the same ;) everyday!
