Dear Readers,
Once again, apologies!
This is the second time I missed out sending a letter on Sunday. This time, trust me, was for a good cause.
I have been fostering a rescued pregnant cat- Piddi and she went into labour 3 days ago but did not deliver. She had to be taken into surgery and it looked like, we had lost all 4 kittens in the litter. When we were about to bury them, we found one gasping for air with a feeble breath. We rushed him to the vet, he was revived and it’s been 2 days of monitoring the kitten, helping Piddi recover and making sure they are okay.
Here is an adorable picture of the mother-cat duo.
Now onto this month’s last issue, our Issue#17.
