Victim : Sofia
Aggressor : Tommy the persian cat (who looks remotely similar to Tiger)
When : Sunday, 04 July @ 9pm
Where : 表伯的家
How many? : 6 angry scratches
Why?
The picture says it all. Our dear animal lover was all over the cat the moment she saw him. A pat here ... a pat there ... hello Tommy! ... Hello Tommy!! ... HELLO Tommy!!! ... HELLO TOMMY!!!! ...
The cat was overwhelmed by the attention from both Sofia and Jeremiah and started hidding. Jeremiah was very much watched over by Ana while Sofia was just after the cat's tail. The cat was pulled out from under the car and I think it made him snapped.
"Wwwwwuuuhhhhhhaahhhhhhhhh ...... mmmuuuuuaahhhhhhahhhhhhh .... mommaaaaa ....."
Instantly my antennas shot up, something must have happened for Sofia to cry like that. Luckily the scratches are not very deep and she quietened down after washing and application of medicine.
On the way home, she was quiet like a mouse, which was very unlike her.
"Daddy, why did Tommy scratch me?" Sofia asked as we alighted.
So Daddy spend the next half an hour explaining to her cats' temperaments, what she should and should not do next time. We hoped she understand what had happened and would be careful next time. Then we also asked her to forgive Tommy and she agreed. We think she really did because after that, she went straight to the toy room to look for Tiger and insisted on hugging him to bed that night.
Aren't children so forgiving?
