Henrietta walked in one day May 2008

I grew up with pets ever since I can remember. Cats, birds, monkeys, dogs, goats and once a mousedeer. This was before dad went and had a small kenduri with the mousedeer as the main dish.

Cats definitely featured in a big way during my childhood ... Mary, Sarge, Kicirat, Mary, Mary .... Then there was no pets for a long long time until this skinny little runt walked into the house one sun shiny day, 18th May 2008. Aisya happened to pick it up. And luvd it in an instance.

So that is how Henrietta or Etta for short came into the kids lives, 3rd edition to the family. She's now part of the family, sleeps with the kids, plays with the kids and fed by Ali.

She's spayed at a cost of $1100 including a few weeks recovery time at the clinic. She kept tugging at her suture, it broke, re-sutured and back into recovery.

Did I mention she's a stray? But the kids completely adore her. So does Daddy.
