I’ve been seeing this kitty in Farmers – Cubao for the last three nights on my way home from work. I just felt really bad over its mewing while scavenging for food.
Yesterday, I stopped by a vendor of candies and brought a pack of Skyflakes biscuit. I had tossed it to the poor kitten but she expectedly ran away. When I was about 10 feet away, I saw it come back to eat the food.
I was advised a few hours back by my friend to bring along sardines on a tetra pack with me on my way home, but I somehow forgot to buy some from 7-11. I ended up buying another pack of Skyflakes from the same vendor. When I got back to where the kitty was, and to my surprise, I saw that she got company with the same coloration of the fur. I saw them playing by the sidewalk, but far from the pouring rain. I tossed the biscuits again. While one ran away from me, the other one stayed and ate them in a flash.
I wish I could bring them home with me. However, my mother’s pretty adamant and impervious to new pets. About nine years ago, I brought home a pure white kitten when I saw it scavenging for food near the jeepney drop-off in UP, after my Saturday P.E. class. I named it Piper, and has been my cat for a few years until she ran off. Ugh. She’s probably dead by now.
Meanwhile, I must have mental note of buying a tetra pack of sardines for these kitties in Cubao.
