May 14. Exactly three days after Pippa had disappeared, I was shocked to find her in that same pot of fern I had first placed her in.
She certainly looked bigger in my eyes.
May 8. “You go first.”
“No problem, Button.”
May 3. “And how is Pippa?”
“How do you know about Pippa?”
May 1. “Button, our brood of strays has 8 members till date.
You remember me telling you about the 2 pups who died and 2 more who were seriously ill?”
April 27. “Button, let’s revisit the Koel.”
“But why?”
April 26. “Button, do you have any clue why MoJo preens over the bowl of water.
I have seen her turn her face to the left, then to the right as if the water in the bowl is a mirror and she is examining herself in it!”
April 23. “Did you read that bit of news in today’s Mumbai Mirror about the blind boxer dog, Baks, who has got a new leese of life after being taken under the wings of a goose?”
“And your namesake, Button! Her name is Buttons!”
