Chapter 5 : Tiramisu, Black Forest and Cappuccino

Hello again EC Members, the young and the not so young but still young at hearts. It's me again, Milo Ninos a/k Lemongrass. Since it's a bit mouthful, (I don't know what my Moms were thinking at that time), I like to be called Ninos. But since Lady Evangelina said I'm a VIK (very important kitten), I think I want to add another moniker to my name, Milo Ninos VIK a/k Lemongrass, or Ninos VIK. I think it really suits me. :D

Anyway, enough of my name. Today I want to talk about three names that recently came into my life, or more accurately, my Moms brought into the house and somehow disturbing the peace and tranquillity of my life. Those are Tiramisu, Black Forest and Cappucino. 

One day, when my Mom Noas came back from the office, she found a sickly kitten in front of her door. My Mom being too soft hearted, took the kitten to the house. It seemed the kitten was abandoned by its mom and left at the door for my Mom to find. Its front leg was bruised, and its eyes were infected. She called my Mom Ayu to buy some medication for the eyes and a syringe. It seemed, the kitten refused to take the milk, which I had to tell you rightfully belonged to me. How ungrateful tot!

When my Mom Ayu came back, both of them were fussing over the kitten. They had to use the syringe to get the milk into the kitten and clean the eyes as best as they could. I felt a little bit left out, but I know that my Moms had to take care the kitten because it was very sickly. 

Though the kitten was very sickly, my Moms being typical themselves, were so excited and decided to name it Tiramisu. Well, if you ask me, it was look nothing like a tiramisu, just because it has three colours on its fur, orange, black and white. But I think my Moms were just too hungry at that time.

Though my Moms tried their hardest to save the kitten, on the second night it died. When my Mom Noas woke up on the second morning, she found that Tiramisu had died. I was sad for my Moms. Mom Noas had to dig a grave for Tiramisu at the backyard. This was the second time she had to dig a grave for a kitten at her backyard. The first time was when a stray kitten died there.

I know that even though they just had Tiramisu for less than two days, they were sad that they couldn't save it. So I tried my hardest to make them happy again. I will jump at my Mom Ayu, or I will bite their feet. I just wanted to show them that I care. 

Then a few days after that, once again my Mom Noas found a very sickly kitten in front of her door. It was severely dehydrated. Ok! Let me tell you something. There was a stray cat that always came into my Mom's house and begged some food from them. This stray cat always gave birth at my Moms' house. Apparently she had two new kittens, and this was one of its kittens.

Once again, my Moms tried their best to save the kitten. And once again, in their enthusiasm, they named the kitten Black Forest. I don't understand why they wanted to name it Black Forest because it was a kind of greyish kitten. Unfortunately, Black Forest died that night. Maybe it was just too sick. Once again, my Mom Noas had to dig another cat grave at her back yard. I hope none of the neighbours will think that my Moms are serial killers in the making and torturing little kittens.

After two kittens died while in their care, you would have thought that my Moms would stop from trying to take care little kittens anymore. No! No! Not my Moms. Honestly. They should just stop and focus on taking care of me. After all, I'm very energetic cat. Thus, I need to be look after 24/7.

After the death of Black Forest, my Moms decided to kidnap the second kitten. It was hiding behind Mom Noas' boots. Therefore, they decided to name it Cappuccino a/k Boots. Really! I think my Moms are too obsessed with food and edible things. Unlike me, Cappuccino is one annoying little kitten. It cried non-stop. I don't know how my Moms can stand the cries, but sometimes I just want to slap it silly.

Now it is already about a month since Cappuccino came into my house. My Moms always told me that, even though there is another kitten in the house, but I will always be their favourite. Thus, I will try to learn to tolerate Cappuccino's presence. Furthermore, since it's too small to play with me, I don't think I have to talk to it yet. After all, I think it is silly to try to talk in baby's talk to Cappucino. It's enough that my Moms do that. I don't want to get involve.

Anyway, I think Cappuccino will definitely live and thrive. I hope it will not expect me to play together. And I hope it will not expect me to teach him/her, by the way, no one knows whether it is female or male, and I am not going to ask that little thing, things such as catching cockroaches and chasing feet. I'm not a baby sitter. Did I tell you that it is one annoying little kitten? I think I will call it Cappucino The Little Bugger.

Hmmm ... until next time. I hope I won't slap that little thing silly in the meantime.
