Reality Of a Death

There are many or rather certain things in our life that touches our hearts. And there are so many things that really do not mean anything to us. Now people don’t assume that I have gone mad after waiting long for my joining letter or rather is playing around the bush. But believe me; if I hadn’t started this way then you may not understand the graveness of the thing that I am going to write or rather what you will be reading next. One look into the matter will give you an insight that this is a real serious kind of a case that is separate from my other posts till date.

How many of you have watched the Imran khan debut “Jaane tu Ya Jaane Na”. I think my readers are of that age group that really follows new age movies. There was a situation at the beginning only where the pet cat of Genelia dies. This was not the end it goes on to a remembrance meeting organized for the cat. How many of us did really understand he graveness of that situation? Another example of recent ad of a detergent powder shows the kids in the class rejoicing as their teacher namely “Rosy Miss” is absent and the reason for the same is the death of her dog. The child in the ad only understands her case when he reaches her. He felt sorry for her and readily agreed to act like her dog.

Now what’s the thing that one really gets from these two cases? Both the deaths were painful but how many does understand the pain of the respective ladies in the movie and the ad. I think there is really a handful who really did feel their pain. Some sympathized with them but most of us just laughed at the situation in the film and in case of the ad just flipped the channel with the remote. Believe me friends I was also among the greater lot until the same thing happened to me or rather to my family.

We used to have lots of cats, all thanks goes to my sister who was responsible for bringing them in and feeding them. This cat was different from all the other ones. We also had a similar situation when a very small cat was run over by some car just in front of our house. But that time was different as it was really very small, and none of us was emotionally involved with it. Now you may ask why so fuss when this one died? Yup! What’s in a cat? Get a new one. Yes we certainly can get a new cat. But at first let me tell you all the unique features of this cat.

Have you ever seen a cat which never steals? Especially when the cat belongs to the road. This cat never did steal any food neither did touch any fish that was not meant for her. Now please don’t think that I am bluffing. Yes of course if you keep the fish in front of her face, it would have had it without any question, but I mean to say that this is the kind of cat whom you can easily lock into your kitchen without worrying that it would attack your food that is kept in your racks in kitchen, be it fish milk or anything else. The thing is that it really did not have any bad habit of putting its mouth into food. And was quite content with what it did really get. Now if a cat has all this features then everyone I think will like to have a pet in their house. Really this cat was unique. It never did steal. I mean it was so good natured that it never did knew any fear in her heart. She was so cute and with all her features made her the best cat in our house. There was a time when it never did leave our house to find food for her. Only in the cases when we were not in our house that it go out and the amazing thing was that she used to be there when we returned home.

Now that there was certain things that she really liked to have as her food. First of all is milk and amazingly “Britannia Cream Cracker Biscuits”!!! Though it never did really like the new flavor “spices”, she never touched Marie. Peculiar food habits such as having the leftover of the lemon curd or the curd itself as well as having chow and Maggie. Even she used to have leftovers of what we ate. It was just a year old and in the time being had become our favorite.

There are many funny incidents that would really make her stay in our heart. First of all she was very curious about my computers cd tray. I found her looking curiously at the tray that came out and went inside. After watching her doing so I started to move the tray in and out repeatedly. After five times it extended her first paw into it to really get into what was that. When I prevented her from doing so, it ran away. Ha ha ha… that was really a moment to enjoy.

Another most funny thing that happened was that my sister left her as well as her mother in the kitchen and locked the kitchen without noticing the two inside. After some time the sound of utensils made her to rush to the kitchen and the thing that she found was so amazing that we all laugh when we just think of the incident. Friends it is natural for the cat to jump to the shelf and search for fishes. But she was just staring at her mother from below which had jumped into the racks and was searching for food. Really our favorite cat never knew to steal. Sigh!!!

This winter in 2nd January it died of the freezing cold and some unknown skin disease.

I now really do feel the pain of Genelia and Rosy miss.
