End of an Era


She was cute and lovely. She caught rats. She was loyal . She was naughty, to sneak through the gates and give false scares to people on the road. She was a true pet, tolerant to our man-handling.
A part of our life for the last 11 years. "Rakshi" to all of us and 'Pup' to my brother. Now, she is no more, leaving behind just her memories in our hearts.

For the first time about 15 years ago, when we had a pet dog that died of sickness, I had insisted at home that we should no more have pets at home fearing the sadness that might strike as it had in the past. But then, my brother, a true animal freak, wanted to have some at home. His interest ranged from a rooster to Fish to birds to dogs. That's how Rakshi came into our life ,as a cute baby doll and now she is leaving being a void. She passed away, yesterday.



If she were this cute, who wouldn't miss her?

It hurts. We will miss her, truly.
