on 20th december, a saturday, little alice in wonderland came to stay. sweet little blonde alice who made kiko and koko rather confused.
kiko sniffed around wonderingly and then lay by the cage where alice was, like a protective older brother. koko took a few looks and wandered away, as if he couldn't be bothered.
alice was feisty, hungry and ran around giddily when let out of the cage. she took immediately to carrots, sengkuang, lettuce, kangkung, galangal, kaduk, jasmine leaves. and the dried keledang leaves.
the first few days she ran hither and thither on the terrace while her cage was washed. kiko would sometimes go near her, perhaps asking her where she came from. koko would steer clear as alice ran headlong into flower pots, rattan chairs as well as both brother bunnies.
then early this morning alice ventured onto the lawn. she frisked with delight as she ran in between plants to her heart's desire.
all of a sudden she disappeared from view and appeared on the next door neighbour's lawn.
alice found a hole in the fence!
she ran madly here and there but cleverly came to the gate when her name was called. the second time she came to the gate she sat down and started grooming.
that was when she was caught, taken home and placed once more in her cage, her adventure ended.
alice under monsoon skies...
