A Salute to Motherhood

<$BlogItemFeedLinks$>

In 2004 I had my small godown/warehouse with a small office for distribution of consumer goods, one morning when I opened the shutter to my surprise there was this cat right in front of me inside my godown waiting for me to open so she could go out, later my staff informed me there were 4 kittens in one of the empty cartons.

Two evenings later one of my staff informed me that it was time to close and the cat was missing, I told him lets wait for some time and she should be back by than, we waited for a full hour and yet she did not return, he suggested ‘let us keep the box out’, I said ‘the stray dogs may maul them’. No sign of the cat that day we left without the cat inside.

I did not sleep the whole night and reached my office almost two hours earlier next day, expecting the cat waiting outside for some one to open and to my surprise she was not there. I opened the locks and shutters and rushed inside to see the fate of the kittens, well they were safely cuddled with their mom right there, I was shocked in disbelief how did she enter? I inspected allover, I saw the cats hair strewn near the shutter, it was through a loose tin sheet over the shutter, she must have had use a lot of force and still the passage was insufficient when I saw her I realized she had cut and bruised herself while getting in from the small space.

I saluted MOTHERHOOD one of Gods most lovely creation.
