Meows all over the House!?

By Yaari. S

Olaf was a lover of cats(what they call an ailurophile)- an extreme sort of that.

Well, he is not to be blamed. He, as a baby was surrounded with cats.

Not just two or three but tons! So obviously, he started developing a certain attraction towards them. More and more, as he grew.

Sometimes I wondered if this attraction would end him up in some trouble.

Though he was the youngest amongst the siblings, he didn’t fear to fight for his cats.

For, he couldn’t dare to live without them.

No one in his family had that sort of extreme love towards cats, except his Papa. I am forgetting-he and his Papa were exactly ditto. But this guy, little Olaf, was far ahead of his Papa in loving cats. He would literally move mountains to hear those meows all over his home, even though the home was never a fixed one.

One day, I met Olaf jumping up and down on receiving the umpteenth batch of kittens from his beloved mamma cat- Mrs Minnie. I think she gave many batches of(a monthly ritual at their home) 3-4 kittens.

All were cute in their own way but still.. out of all of them, Olaf started falling for a tabby cat, whom he soon named Milo.

This guy, our little Olaf.. though just 7 yrs old, soon developed an extraordinary bond with Milo. I mean this was just WOW, for how can such a small boy and a much smaller cat get along this well? As if like they knew each other for generations? I didn’t get it, and I wonder whether you you will!

So yeah.. what happened was this. Milo became an Olaf addict. They just became like the Theory of unlike poles in physics. So much so that, they did everything together except for using the washrooms! They got out of bed together, for they slept together; they ate together and so did they attend classes together (that’s obviously a crazy statement, don’t get me wrong- I meant to say- Milo attended Olaf’s classes, not a day’s class was missed!!).

I was in fact, satisfied that the love Olaf had been showering on these cute beings have been reciprocated at last by a tiny lil fellow.

I don’t think I ought to tell you more, for as you see.. love never died between these two lil beings. Nor between him and the cats and also the kittens Olaf later had.

Indeed, their love was eternal.
