Below lie a few of the extremely-long-waited for kitten pictures! However, since I took forever to post them up (and lost a kitten on the way – adopted alhamdulillah), there’s also a pretty cool story behind one of the furballs; one never knows where they’ll find their daily inspiration from!
The Story
Yesterday one of the kittens fell off the top step of the stairs (the ones in the pic). I know, triple ouch. The poor thing started meowing like crazy with every hobble it took afterwards. (Alhamdulillah, she’s better now.) So what’s the cool thing about this story? Well, it just so happens that of all the kittens (6 at the time), only the one who was injured is able to jump from the steps today.
Moral: What hurts now may be the reason behind your success later (and because of your difficult situation @ the present (think of it as a present), you may end up whizzing by others struggling in the future).
Insha Allah soon enough I’ll post some cuter pictures with better resolution. I stole these ones off L.
Enough posts for one night, methinks!
PS Ever since I found out ‘one’ can’t be referred to as ‘they’ – (ex: one never knows where they’ll find…), I find it so hard to implement this irritating grammar rule destroyed by everyday conversation. Sorry. Blame society, media, and cheese (why not?), but not milk.
SO CUTE… I WANT ONE… sigh…
anyways, i think you can refer to “one” as “they” because while “one” is single, it is being used to avoid using he vs. she… so that’s why they end up saying “they” in reference to he and she… at least, that’s what I remember learning long ago!
other wise you would have to write: he/she never knows where he/she find…which is annoying…
Yeah it is annoying! Especially when you get docked marks off for it on essays!
And insha Allah you’ll get to see ‘em soon
.
LoL I hated that grammer rule – but now I can’t *not* apply it sigh alhamdulillah
Oh yes, they’re so CUTE mashaAllah <3 I need a play date with them!
You should come by soon before they grow big and old and not so cute! It’s really a good thing animals can’t understand human speech – I’ve never thought of this blessing ’till now but seriously, imagine being called ‘the ugly kitten’… Not that *I* call it/her that…. just saying..
Are pets ‘it’s or ‘he/she’s?
I know what you’re thinking – enough with the grammar! I can’t help it… It’s one of the voices that I told you earlier about – the ones that live in the back of my head. Well this one wont’ stop commenting about grammar rules.
..It’s like when you accidentally play a DVD with commentary and you can’t find the button to go back to the normal setting… You’re just stuck with this voice that yaps on and on and you can’t make it stop and it’s talking about things that you don’t really care to know like the filming and the idea behind the name of the movie and all these minor details that keep going and going and going and you’re sitting there with a remote control trying in vain to find the button that will – oh, you found it.
