Nanna’s Puzakal



Nanna often call me my moniker Cris rather than saying my full name Cris____. She loved me more than she loved her felines of course haha.

Having three domesticated cats in the house is a little bit annoying for me. I don’t like how these soft fur mammals behave. One time they have ruined my breakfast, turning zilch in my plate. I can also remember they have eaten those fishes I am cleaning in the kitchen after leaving open for a while. They even messed up too; so disgusting behavior.
Granny is so kind that she lets puzakals in our home. Adapting stray cats with love and care is the weird side of her. Well, we can’t do anything about it because it’s one thing that makes her happy.

Puzakals are then very glad because they are fed three times a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner. They are treated to be part of the family.

Keep Your Cats Inside

It is cold outside. For those people who have pets, you must keep them inside. Always keep your cats inside now because felines can freeze. You must be aware that cats who are allowed to stray are exposed to infectious diseases, including rabies, from other cats, dogs and wildlife. Outdoor cats sometimes sleep under the hoods of cars. When the motor is started, the cat can be injured or killed by the fan belt. If there are outdoor cats in your area, bang loudly on the car hood before starting the engine to give the cat a chance to escape.
