My Grace Sweetie is my youngest daughter. Grace Ashraf was born in August 06, 2016 around 11pm. Her mother is no one else but proper “Nadoosh” (Bangladeshi word which somewhat means healthy, adorable and cute person or animal) Yuki Billie. I also happen to know the father of Grace Sweetie. He is also a proper “Nadoosh” cat that used to hang out right in front of the house where I used to live before and where Yuki gave birth to Grace of course. I used to call him Daddy Goon. Featured image on the left is The Daddy Goon – father of Grace Sweetie standing up on his back feet! He was a proper goon. He scared local cats by acting like a goon and taken over their space. I have taken some pictures of Daddy Goon and sure will put it up here soon. Incidentally, Grace and her father : The one and only Daddy Goon looks exactly same apart from the fact Grace has sense of femininity written all over her face being a female cat of course. Other than that, both Daddy Goon and Grace Billie look very much alike. Grace can also be goon sometime and she is proper predator like an apex predator sitting right at the top of the food chain around where I live. She effective hunts birds including big-size adult birds like Magpie and Black Birds. Of course she brings plenty of mice and voles along with live birds right inside in the house and display her kills in such a way that she expect me to eat them all. I guess, its her way to express she is happy living here and I deserve gifts. Lot of people have a mis-perception that cats are destroying bird communities. The hunting efficiency of cats are no more than 10%. It means, if there are 100 birds around the tree, cat can kill only 10 of them a year. This is based on ground breaking study of some of the most top-notch carnivore ecologists across the globe. For example, both Melvil Sunquist and Ullas Karanth found out the same for wild tigers of India. Similar study at Mountain Lion and Jaguar prove the same result. Therefore, typecasting cats as bad predator hence to provoke negative stereotype about this wonderfully majestic and cute species is simply stem out from lack of ecological and social education among many.
