Phersephone and me

Today i went home in incredible good weather, the sun was shining down from heaven, and i had some to does before i went home. A streetcat that walked together with my cat turned up the first day i was home. My mom had not seen her on 1 1/2 year. I thought she was dead, runned over by a car, or taken by people that dont like the street cats. Some of them was put down some years ago. She was hiding a lot after that. And was not much to see. But she knew i was home because of the sigarettes in the ashtray outside, and she probably knew the smell of sigarettes. For some years ago i gave her the name " Phersephone " from a song by Roger Clyne and The Peacemakers. The album " Turbo Ocho " is good, and it dont go to be depressed listening to them. But Phersephone is a beautiful and sad song about a woman struggling hard. And Phersephone always looses her kittens. She dont get milk to them and hide them so i cant find them and help her. One time she came to me with a litle kitten, but i was to go to the hospital for training so i could not take care of him. It was painful, hard and awful to give the kitten back to her. And it is quite a certificate to get a kitten from a streetcat. Here on the islands were i live we really call them wildcats. They are shy, hostile and can bite if you are not careful with them. But Phersephone and the rest of the cats has never harmed me. I was so happy she was alive, that i went to the shop and got her Friskies dry food, Sheba, Omega-3 sticks for her teeth and cat milk. She was so thirsty and hungry, and she is waiting kittens again. I will treat her nice so maybe she can keep her milk or come to me with a kitten. She is very beautiful, long furry hair, all black with a white spot on her chest. She has eyes that are very intense and looks a litle bit never mind, but today they were cosy and sad. She miss my cat " Ståle ", that was here best friend.
I got so happy seeing Phersephone again and giving her care. I hope she moves together with me, but a wildcat/streetcat chooses its life on her own.
I had a good time home and know that streetcats manage through everything. I gave her a lot of dryfood, so it should last to next time i am home. It was a really good time, someone is greeting me home and that is long time missed friends, i wonder where the rest of the cats are ?
Now it is just a comfortable afternoon here, reading and watching a DVD tonight, and going to bed early. " Life is good in the small parts and friends come to you when you least of all waits them. Stay happy you deserve it. "
