Cute Cats From Around The World - Book
Rosel, Alex - Cute Cats From Around The World
(Kindle Locations 632-637). Kindle
Edition.
Maya from Southern Kosovo owner and photographs by Admir
Idrizi
Admir Idrizi Aljabak lives in a small village in Southern
Kosovo where many feral cats live in the surrounding area. Most of these
semi-tame cats depend on the local people during the colder winter months for
food and shelter.
During the winter, three years ago, Admir noticed that a
young kitten had taken up lodgings in his stable. The cattle that also resided
in the stable appeared to have accepted their small companion without any
concern and so Admir’s natural inclination was to allow the kitten to stay.
This kitten, which was just a few weeks old, was obviously the offspring
of one of the local feral cats and, without the support and protection of its
mother, was surely in a precarious position. Thus, Admir started feeding the
kitten and named her Maya. By the time spring had arrived, Maya had not only
grown into a healthy young cat, but had also become so used to people that she
was now fully domesticated. Thus, Maya had found herself a loving home. If it
was Admir who adopted Maya, or if it was Maya who decided to allow Admir to
become her friend, who can tell? As so often with cats, their spirit of
independence and aloofness makes it hard to determine who actually makes the
decisions.
Maya is now three years old and very much part of Admir’s family.
In 2011, Maya produced a litter of four healthy kittens.
Admir decided to keep a male kitten himself and give away the three other
kittens to friends who wanted a cat.
Then, just recently (toward the end of
2012), Maya produced another litter.
This time there were five kittens. As they
are still young and dependent upon their mother, Admir is currently providing a
caring home for mother and kittens. However, when they are old enough, all the kittens
from the latest litter will be re-homed into loving families
Two kittens from Maya’s first litter
The male kitten from
Maya’s first litter that still lives with Admir has nice white neck collar
markings on his coat and is the right hand kitten shown in the photo above.
Maya seems to be a rather broad minded lady when it comes to choosing a tom to
mate with as her current litter of five consists of kittens with entirely
different markings to those of her first litter. The newly born being
predominately black in color.

Spring is here

I see bird's nests,
Butterflies too,
flowers too.
Everything is growing,
The wind is gently blowing.

Spring is here, spring is here.

The days of Spring are here,
Warm, sunny days are near,
Flowers and bees, and birds in trees.

Poultry and cats
Spring is coming...
Finally sunny days.
Poultry released into the garden and look for food.
Rooster, the poultry flocks of trying to maintain order. It has a rival, and comes to fight.
Domesticated cats watching them and waiting for the moment to attack them.
Although cats are domesticated, their temper them in a short period of time turn into predators.
