A herd of cats live in the area around our block. At the unit by the bus-stop dwells a blue-eyed male with siamese style points. Of all breeds, I dislike the thin, wiry build of so-called show Siamese cats, preferring instead those with normal, pudgier bodies and faces but with the characteristic dark points. In one of my undergraduate years, I shared a lodging with one. I wonder if she is still around?
This old female was already a mainstay at our block when we first moved in about six years ago. At times, she would appear with a bloodied face and scars from nocturnal encounters. The old lady who lives upstairs appears to be her carer. Once we found her making a nest out of the rack outside our front door. Another cat which hangs out at the opposite block has cute dark markings on her face, while a tabby occupies the landing of the adjacent point block and is probably fed by the owner of the mamak store.
I dreamt two nights ago that Angel had two little calico friends, with whom she boxed. Hmmmm....
