Jaadu – the magic in our lives!

JAADU- yes, this is the five letter name of my four legged friend! He is a black Pug. Whenever I saw the Hutch ad, I used to wonder how it would be if I had a dog exactly like the one in the ad. A lovely buddy who could follow me wherever I went, being

Smart boy Ninja!

I was young once, twice actually – once when I was young like all of us and second the day my golf set arrived. I was excited to the core and carefully unfolded my prized possession. As soon as I was about to hit the ball with my club, the bulbous head of Driver #1

Utterly Butterly Mine!

Our neighbourhood dog had delivered three adorable pups. They were so cute that we named them Butter, Scotch and Sundae. I was later informed that one of the pups, had got hurt, my heart stopped beating for a minute and I rushed to the site where I saw Butter standing in a pool of blood

Simba – my darling

SIMBA is the 5-letter name of my 4-legged family member who means sheer joy! Yes, he is our darling Labrador who has added sparkle to our life when things were going wrong and stress was the order of the day! He came as a small bundle of fur—small enough to crawl under the bed. In

Bundle of joy- indeed!

Whenever I saw the Hutch ad, I would marvel at the cute little doggie (Pug) and wonder if such dogs actually existed. Never did I imagine that I would be the parent of a similar one!! On 13th September, I was sleeping after coming back from school when my dad came into my room, hiding

Friends forever!

“A friend is one to whom one may pour out one’s heart, chaff and grain together, knowing that the gentlest of hands will take and sift it, keep what is worth keeping and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away.” Well! I understood the meaning of the above saying…by having Pepper – my

Loving Kia… truly… madly… deeply

Kia – my darling angel, is the love of my life. She is a wonderdog… I could not ask for a better dog. My l’il four-legged friend has given me so many reasons to cherish. She loves to romp endlessly. She enjoys playing with ball… and jogs like a pawfect fitness freak. What else my

Woof! I got one

Since childhood, I love pets…I grew up having great fun with them. When I look back, it leaves me with a smile and reasons are innumerable… playing fetchthe- ball …going on a daily evening stroll…chasing butterflies…the list is endless. When I moved to city hustle-bustle, the only thing I missed the most was my pets.

Meet our Karmic cousin… Flip! Flop! Floppy!

Some relationships are so special that no words can express their importance in our lives. I am lucky to have one… I still remember the fortunate day, when I first met Floppy…a lively, just a few weeks old stray pup. He was the most adventurous among his littermates and the one who would venture the

Magical love… nothing else!

If she could speak, would she complain? Her eyes capture my heart. She knows I am drawn to her innocence. She follows me like a shadow, as though beyond me there is no existence for her. My heart cries, when I have to go away from her. Her affection is worth melting for and her

Enjoyed our trip to the ‘Max’

We were planning to holiday in Manali. The preparation was in full swing and the flight and hotel bookings were done. This was when my pet dog ‘Max’ came and sat with hands over my suitcase, looking at me with wet eyes. Why was he so sad – probably he had realized that we were

Sippy- my lil’ fella

I’ve wondered many times as to how little things in life can carry so much love, joy and most importantly warmth…to enlighten a household that remained cold even during the hottest season of the year…such a house was ours, till July 2006. I remember precisely! It was 6 days before my birthday when the big

Kalpaka: the amazing survivor

Our heart bleeds when we witness the life of our loved ones slip away from us. I also stared at the startling reality when my little white kitty Kalpaka fought with the messenger of death. But I was fortunate to get this bundle of joy back and fill my life again with happiness. I met

Come Bruno, let’s play…

Labs are high-spirited and good-tempered four-legged buddies and I am blessed by one such sparkling gem. Bruno, my 3-year-old Lab, true to his nature… is very hyperactive and playful…ask anytime of the day, he is rocking…ready to roll. His unmatched gait and grandeur add more to his beauty…perhaps he is the most beautiful dog I

Sammy and two and half seconds!

His name is Sammy, but Aunty Kamala calls him Samosa. My Russian student cuddles him and calls him Samka, an affectionate term that means “Little Sam.” Sammy, an American Eskimo dog, has been gifted with a white coat, soft as silk, smoky eyes outlined in black look as if an expert make-up artist applied black
