I used to hate cats. I had always goosebumps everytime I will see them on my way or even near our place. I don't know, but maybe it's because I just didn't get a chance to take care of pets when I was still young. My mom didn't want me to touch animals such as dogs and cats for I might get bitten.
But when I got married, I realized that I can be an animal lover. I married a man who is like Cesar Millan, the "Dog Whisperer". He is crazy about dogs. He has the ability to tame them and be close with them. In fact, everytime he will go to his parent's house, he's like a star. Their pet dogs would run to him and cry as if they have seen their surrogate father for the first time after so many years.
My husband loves to take care of animals. But not CATS. He hates the smell of their urine and poops. But things changed for the two of us when one day, we saw a stray kitten at our garden. It's a red tabby cat with amber eyes. It was so cute! And we pity him because it seems that he's lost. My husband told me that he likes to take care of him. I agreed. But it became difficult for us to get him for he's very elusive. He didn't want to be touched. Everyday, he would go to our garden and we would always prepare food for him. After several days, we got his trust. He became comfortable and started to stay with us. We named him Felix. Felix Dakat (The Cat).
The following are the snapshots of Felix:

We couldn't find Felix. Oh! He's already asleep. He is sleeping on our bed!
Felix Dakat!
