More than care

Info

One day, a little black kitten with folded ears and harmless claws journeyed in the clamorous alley of wild cats - all were sitting in their most comfortable position. It was a glorious sight for this kitty - for it might finally discover its place among these feline. But as the kitty traces its way among its fellows, it dawns over the kitty that its purrs and meows aren't as mighty as the others for it was not really its ability. That is what the kitty knows as far as its knowledge is concern. In the midst of the clamor, his tiny voice is feeble and seems inaudible. But that was okay for the kitty never intends to be heard. All it wants is to observe. There is nothing to be talked about for it is fine to be a mere spectator of this mighty scene. The kitty is satisfied to be a wallflower. But one ordinary morning, in the perspective of the kitty, an announcement came. The leader of their band announced that human beings are now using some chemicals to eradicate rats. It shocked the feline for these creatures are their primary source of food - that if man killed all the rats, their race would soon be extinct because of starvation. Terrible it seems that the elder cats came up with a solution which they think would serve their race well but would have to sacrifice a little. It was talked about and agreed. Nothing can be done to alter such decision. The council now announced to all members that weak and frail kittens should be sent out of the alley so that food supply will suffice. They will be exiled. Unfortunately, the little black kitten is one of those to be driven away. It is because they think the kitty is weak anyway. It won't last long. It is not going to survive. Weak! Surprisingly, the kitten is not offended by the council's decision and said, "I think they have forgotten that I was once astray. I may looked like a fragile fractured glass but I can unintentionally hurt you in a way. So, I suggest that you should start handling this black kitty with caution, more than care."
