A Newcomer

It's been a while I haven't written about my cats. There are only 3 cats left which always stay in the house or somewhere around my yard; Keni, Gembul, and Gogon. Gembul's mother is Krisi. I don't know Gogon's mother because I took it from a public trash site some days ago. He was alone, still a small kitten, and looked filthy. The first night of Gogon's coming, Gembul looked very angry. He always hissed at Gogon when he came closer to Gembul. He didn't even sleep in my bed at that night because there was Gogon in that bed. But on the next day, Gembul started to welcome Gogon because they could play chase and friendly fight, not a real fight. This morning when I saw them doing a friendly fight, Gogon chose to be in a defeated position. I think he did that because he wanted to be accepted as a lovely pet in the house.

Domi, my oldest cat, is still fine. He often plays in my neighbor's house. He goes there after he finishes his breakfast and then comes home at dusk. Sometimes he doesn't come home at dusk. But I am not worried because he is a well behaved cat.

Keni is now healthy again. A few months ago, he came back crawling with his mouth full of vomit. I was suspicious that he accidentally ate some food containing poison when he was outside. Or maybe there was some random person in the neighborhood who did not like Keni's being naughty, so he poisoned him. I was not very sure. My focus was how to make Keni's condition back to normal. He couldn't walk, he couldn't close his mouth, but fortunately his tongue was still reacting when I gave him the green coconut water. That water is said to be effective to cure for this case. Slowly but effectively, Keni was getting much better.

Encrit, however, couldn't make it. She got the same condition as Keni. But because she was often sick when she was still a little kitten, she became very vulnerable to diseases and poison attack. She died three days later.

Soon after that, Krisi delivered Gembul. After Gembul could eat by himself, Krisi started to draw herself away from Gembul. She was often running away from Gembul when he came closer to her. She chose to be close to Domi. Then one day, she disappeared. She hasn't gone home until now. And that happened to Kiki, too. I don't know where they are until now. I hope there is a family falling in love with Krisi and Kiki's cuteness. If they are still alive, I am sure they will come back. They are newcomers for other houses, and Gogon is a newcomer in my house.
