Dogs in Uganda

We also had two dogs during the stay in Kampala. They were good friends. Our   guards,driver,gardener,housegirl were all kind to them.They took care of them. I used Pedigree as their food ,not dog food made in Uganda because they prefered it. But Pedigree was much more expensive than food for human beings like rice,potatoes,meat,etc. When we left Uganda we couldn't take the dogs . We asked the landlord to keep them and he consented. I sometimes remember them and worry about whether they are still alive.

Elsa at the window

Elsa is a friendly girl. She can stay at my friend's while we take a trip. But her hoarce

  voice is really disappointing , not matching her cute appearance.

A bird

One day  I saw a bird from the window of the bedroom upstairs. Is it a kind of pigeon or a crow?
It sings in a different way I have ever heard. Ugandan people have amazingly good sight.
When we see very small birds flying far from here, they can say what colors dot the birds have at their necks.For me with thick glasses it's impossible.

About Elsa

I named the pussy Elsa after the novel "Born Nature"-the lioness. I was very impressed by the story when I was young.And when the time we have to leave Uganda comes, and if this pussy cannot be allowed to go with us, I thought our case will be a little similar to this story.
This is the reason I named her Elsa.
She was active, curious, naughty,and very sweet.

African life

I had been in Kampala,Uganda for 9 months.I joined my husband.He had been there since 2008.A life in Uganda was exciting and comfortable for me,I felt even a sense of closeness about the simple lifestyle.

 

 

Elsa has come

July 2010 Elsa came to me.
The housegirl said to me, "A man is visiting us to sell a pussy.Do you want to see, Madam?"And after meeting the pussy I decided to buy her.It cost 20000 Uganda shilling(about  10dollars).
But I didn't see the seller.I thought it was my housegirl's plan. Anyway,welcom to my house ,Elsa!
