Fluffy and Her Little Family

There is a little family that has found its way into my life as you guys already know I am not allowed to keep my pet inside our apartment so they don’t live inside my apartment but they have become an important part of my everyday routine. My pet cat Fulffy is mother, and Fluffy truly lives up to her name. Her soft fur and gentle presence make her look more beautiful, the thing that makes her so special to me is not only her appearance but also the way she has taken the role of a mother with quiet strength and devotion.

She is a mother of three kittens, but sadly, one of them didn’t survive. I came to know about it yesterday because when I was checking the place where they lived I saw there were only two kittens. That's why the loss of a kitten made her even more protective for the remaining two. The kittens are tiny than her mother and skittish, yet they fear of people which makes them keep distance. But on the other hand Fluffy has learned to trust me and her kittens still sees me as an unknown or possibly frightening.

This small family of Fluffy has made the garage their home. I often see them spending their most of the time there. They stay hidden and far away from the noise of the world outside. But whenever I plan to go outside, I find them waiting right in front of the door, as if they know I’m about to step out. To be honest I like their presence and it has become part of my daily rhythm. I truly can't think of a day without noticing them, and of course, I always leave food for them before going anywhere.

Every time I step outside or return home, I always make sure to buy fish can for them to eat and it has become a habit so I don't plan about it anymore because it happens naturally. When I place the food near them Fluffy always comes forward with confidence but her kittens linger at the edges. They keep an eye on me with wide eyes and looks very confused.

Fluffy will always follow me around whenever I walk. When I crouch down to her level she always allows me to pat her on her head. Those smalls moments mean a lot. However, her kittens are not ready for that yet. I believe that trust cannot be rushed. I know that her kittens will need some more time and one day they will be comfortable too. But for now, I prefer to keep my distance from them. Because I don’t want to force them and that is the right thing to do. I really want to let them have their space and become comfortable by their own. Because I can understand that life has not been easy for them and I know how fragile their world is. I just love the fact that Fluffy gives me companionship in her own quiet way.
