1st April, 2009 - Yesterday, Dash brought Bombastic to the playground and caught the attention of a Malay neighbour friend who apparently recognised Bombastic as her other neighbour's pet cat!!!
So, today, when we got home, a group of Malay girls came cycling around our house. Immediately Dash knew that it's time to say goodbye to Bombastic. So, he got into the house, looked for Bombastic and I guess with a heavy heart, he gave Bombastic back to his rightful owner, with a cheerful disposition. Wow! As I observed silently, I could feel Dash's disappointment for he has grown quite fond of Bombastic. Many a night, he would cuddle Bombastic to sleep with him in his room. Dash is more gentle and kindly towards Bombastic whereas Bob handles the kitten rather roughly.
Suddenly, Dash remembered that he has forgotten to pass the remaining cat food to the owner and asked : mommy, how? I smiled and replied : Aww ... It's ok, if and when Sati (Bombastic's original name) drops by, we can always give him a treat ya? With that, Dash smiled and went out to play with the other children again.
