It is like an heart attack. You don’t know when it will strike them and I swear you never want to see it strike them. There were many times, I did not even dare to check on them. But…I had to cos I love them!
This is my great Dharma. I don’t want to mention the number of times seizure had struck him. With the medication, Dharma’s seizure is under control. Dharma is extremely adorable, so is Lokit. Both tend to play by themselves and I would just sit, smile and watch them.
Lokit, my little princess. Lokit loves running and hopping around. And she always hits on something when she runs. She sticks with Dharma most of the time. When I am doing my feeding, I would bring both of them along. They will sleep comfortably beside me with soft music specially played for them. I will give them food and I do not feel their stress.
I should say it is not easy taking care of them. It requires a lot of patience and love. My love for them conquered my fear of their recurring seizure. If…if I…we…human beings do not help them then who would help them? Isn’t it heartbreaking thinking that they are being left on the streets with no one to care for them?
At least right now Mel and I are doing our part to give them the best care we can and I hope the rest of the world would do the same.
Dharma closing his eyes and contemplating. He is sweet, isn’t he?
While Lokit stays alert and trying to be mindful:).
The five kittens which were borne by Lady were named Dharma, Ava, Lokit, Teshi and Vara. Ava, Lokit, Teshi and Vara are named after Avalokiteshvara which is the name of Bodhisattva Quanyin. I strongly believe Ava is residing in a land which he deserves.
Dharma reminds me to keep practising the teaching. And Lokit reminds me to continue practising universal compassion.
I came across this in the afternoon and I am going to memorise it…
The Buddha says, “Knowing this body like a fragile clay pot, and establishing this mind like a fortress, conquer Māra with the sword of wisdom. Then protect what has been won, but cling to nothing.”
And I say excellent!
