Latest addition to the Hammond family?

This cat, unknown to us whether she's a stray, abandoned, or lost kitty.. anyway, it has sorta become the neighbourhood cat, people feed it and sayang it when they saw her.. We feed it also, and sometimes let it stay over at our place. This cat is not like any other cats. As we know, cats are not attention seekers, and they'll only come to you whenever they feel like, but Miao-mee (the name Jill gave her..) is different.. She enjoys sleeping around people, or should i say especially my stomach.

One day after work, we found a decapitated rat at our door step, and on instinct we knew it was the work of Miao-mee. So i looked it up on the Net and found that cats do that as a form of respect, or to show gratitude. It's like bringing home a trophy. Domestic cats do not eat rats, but hunting is their basic instinct, and they normally will not eat the rat, but just torturing it to death.. Poor bastard.. Anyway, i was kinda glad to see a dead rat on my doorstep, it shows that the cat likes us.. haha!

Do you know cats prefer to drink water that are 'moving' then still water? As though human prefer drinking from a waterfall then a pond. Learn something new everyday eh?
