MISSION IMPOSSIBLE - UTOPIA.

Synopsis

Introduction :-

To introduce myself, I am ex-student from I. I. T., Kharagpur & thus story writing is neither my passion nor my profession. Instead my profession is Mechanical Engineering and for that have so far worked & travelled in addition to India, to & thru’ many countries in the Western World as well as USA too.

However after my marriage, when my son was born and started growing up, it was he who insisted me for telling stories. This is how it started, in order to answer his request. The first story that was told to him, in the name of “Mission Impossible – Hawaii” was incidentally published too, kind courtesy M/s Story Mirror of Mumbai recently. They in fact are again kind enough to have decided to publish another story from me, entitled “Mission Impossible – Ranchi”.  

Afterwards, over thirty years later, it was my grand-daughter, who lives abroad with her father, i.e., my younger son in USA, recently came to Mumbai for holidays with us. She is just a sweet teen little girl and she is insisting me to tell her a story that is somewhat suitable and palatable for teenagers & youngsters. So thought of it a bit and thus started an extempore story telling for answering her desire. In fact after she had left, whatever is possible for me to remember or recollect, compiled this story too. So please remember, this is just an imaginary Utopian story as requested by my little granddaughter   

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE – UTOPIA.

SYNOPSIS :-  Our present story deals with the outskirts of the famous and large Whipsnade Zoo Garden. This is located near the town of Dunstable in the district of Bedfordshire in England. The actual venue of the story deals with the children’s playground and the associated garden next to it, attached to the Staff Quarters of this Zoo Garden. This is the month of July in the year 2005. Ringleader Dr. Stuart McKenzie and Ms Maureen Abel. They have three daughters. Their names are Tina, a teen-age girl, then it is Rina, a girl of eleven and the youngest of the lot is Mina, a girl of eight. Tina and Mina are too good little girls and obeyed their Dad in to to. However, Rina is somewhat different type of a girl.

Rina was far too imaginative and she kept on dreaming of so many interesting & Utopian ideas too often. One afternoon, after a little drizzle, while all of them were playing in the garden, Rina slipped and fell unconscious. She dreamt Sir Isaac Newton, of whom she read a few days ago, had come. He gave her some magic apples, by nibbling which she could become temporarily invisible and can fly anywhere she desires. She did experiment it and flew across the high Zoo fencing wall and noticed that all the animals have assembled at an open place for some meeting, where the Chair is occupied by the Lion with two ministers, Indian Tiger & African Elephant. The main points discussed are as follows :-   

CREATION OF EARTH AND ITS RELEVANT DETAILS :-

This is the Earth, where we live. Here we have main two significant items, which are essential & conducive to all the living creatures. These two are air and water, as these are the most significant two items for any of the living creatures to survive. As far as we have gathered so far, that no other planets in the celestial system have any of such quantum air and water & thus no life can exist or survive there too. Our earth is only the living planet.

Concept of :- Theory of organic evolution was discussed also,  - SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST.

Where did we get the first animals, including the common ancestor of all animals today – Please note that evolved in the sea over half a billion years ago. 

Then came the Era of dinosaurs - What were these massive animals ? What happened to these dinosaurs !

Imagine if all of Earth time from the very beginning of the era of dinosaurs to today were compressed into 365 days (one calendar year), let us imagine for the sake of an argument, then it is interesting to note dinosaurs had appeared around January 1 and became extinct the third week of September. 

Using the same scale, human people (Homo sapiens) have been on earth only since December 31 (New Year’s Eve). Too interesting ! Isn’t it !

The next interesting creature on earth, we would like to discuss is, cockroaches.

Let us examine, when did the humans (also called as Homo Sapiens) appear on the surface of the earth !

If we are presenting the total History of Earth in an imaginary 24-hour clock, then it is, humans have arrived at 77 seconds before the 24 hour ends here.

They also discussed of Epic story of Adam & Eve.

Of the top 10 things, (what is it), which is making the humans so special. The answer is Fire  :- The last and the most significant item of the lot is fire. Human’s ability to control fire brought a difference of day to night, helping their ancestors to see in an otherwise dark world and keep nocturnal predators at bay. The warmth of the flames also helped the humans to stay warm in the cold weather. And of course it gave the humans facility for cooking, which some researchers suggest influenced human evolution — cooked foods are easier to chew and digest, perhaps contributing to reductions in human tooth and gut size. There is evidence that humans used fire as far back as 1 million years ago, although archaeological evidence shows it became more widespread first in Africa, Asia, Europe and the Middle East about 400,000 years ago. 

Also in the last item, is that they can Control the Fire :- In fact the humans can generate, can extinguish and can transport it to any place of their choice. Most significant of the lot is that the humans have managed to prepare a fire weapon, in front of which all animals are so helpless and tame.

Since all the animals have started exclamatory sounds out of the frightening aspect of Fire, they all started reacting so loud and collectively in a frightened voice, that from the resonance effect of this far reaching sound & so much so was the overall effect, that she too started murmuring Fire, Fire, Fire, and Fire. She came back to sense. Locating the source of her voice, her sisters and later their Father came and took all of them home. 

ACTUAL STORY OF

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE – UTOPIA.

FIRST CHAPTER STARTS NEXT PAGE.

 

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE - UTOPIA.

Preface :- 

This is a story that was narrated only to the local kids and their parents & relatives, who are our family friends & neighbours, just a few days ago, 

This particular story was in fact conceived much earlier in my mind, although narration-wise it is the first of the lot to these kids in presence of their parents, relatives & neighbours. However while narrating most of the episodes in the story, myself was somehow influenced by several children’s novels and fables as are available all over the World ; mainly in India as well as several of Western European World. For instance :- starting with Aesop’s Fables, the famous English novel “Alice in Wonderland”, wonderful writings of Hans Anderson ,unparallel fables of Grim Brothers and lots of similar such others have influenced me a lot and there is no harm in admitting it.

Practically for presenting the story, the actual mode of furnishing the hard facts of life or such similar incidents as described and narrated later in detail, are although imaginary & conceived in my own imagination, still it is just an honest sincere attempt to present such a lot of actual facts inclusive of geographical & paleontological data to the local kids of the day through the medium of such stories. In fact, most of these kids of the present date are so computer savvy, they are mostly ignorant of all such geographical data. For instance, really we wonder as to how many of these kids are aware as to what is the age of earth or when did the dinosaurs reign here or when did the humans arrive here !

The main story deals with a lot of separate incidents, as visualised by the little girl in her dream or sub-conscious mind. She is too imaginative and absent minded a lot. She has the natural knack of forgetting so many earthly activities, although academically she is a gem in her school. 

All the characters and incidents are just fictitious and imaginary in this story, although all the facts, incidents & other details, as conceived by the little girl in her sub-conscious mind, inclusive of the indicated period, exact time, actual names of all the dignitaries involved in this - are of course true, although marginally changed, just for the sake of avoiding any further troubles that perhaps might come up in future. In fact, please also note that all the locations, geographical facts & relevant data or details, social facts & figures, all are totally true. These are neither at all imaginaries, nor are at all far from reality too. In fact, this is not just a story as it reflects the actual diary of certain interesting incidents, in a vivid manner.

JUST A LITTLE BIT OF REQUEST: -

My earnest and sincere request to all the people (not the kids) - please do not just ask any questions to me at the end of the episode, since the ending of this story, as it is not at all a fable, perhaps will appear to be somewhat too abrupt, although not at all unethical. In the event any one of you is kind enough to offer some suggestions for me to improve or enlarge the story, please do feel free to communicate. 

Please note that in those days we did not have any Google to search for, in the seventies or eighties. However, let me convey my gratitude to the authorities of Google & Bing, as for helping me for picking up several data & pictures for me to complete this. Let me, however, hope that all of you will like the story & thus it will achieve the desired objective too.

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE - UTOPIA.

As already written, this is not just a simple utopian story at all.

However, to start with let us at first establish certain social facts and evidence.                 For instance, we want our readers to be certain as regards the following main criteria: -

= Place                                                                          = Time       and last item is                                                                 = Characters.,     

PLACE :-

The place is the outskirts of a famous zoo garden near the city of London in England. As all of you are perhaps aware that this city of London has a total of five Zoo Gardens. Two are within the city limits, whereas the rest of these are somewhat at a little driving distance. These Zoo gardens are :-

Regents Park Zoo Garden.             - located within the city limits.Battersea Children’s Park Zoo Garden.   - located within the city limits.Whipsnade Zoo garden.Chessington Zoo garden.The fifth Zoo Garden is not so large and let us not discuss of it here. 

Our present story deals with the outskirts of the famous and large Whipsnade Zoo Garden. This is located near the town of Dunstable in the district of Bedfordshire in England.

The actual venue of the story deals with the children’s playground and the associated garden next to it, attached to the Staff Quarters of this Zoo Garden. The entire playground and certain area of Zoo Garden have a common strong barrier, a very high extremely strong barbed wire fencing althrough.

The Zoo Garden has a stock of many animals. The overall total stock consists of many Mammals, Reptiles, insects, birds and other aquatic animals. All these are collected from different corners of the World. These are since well secured and placed within a lot of individual cages or caves or suitable aquatic ponds, all within proper enclosures. Presence of plenty of large trees, a wide selection of shrubs, bushes and tiny trees within the premises, have made it attractive to most of the visitors. In fact, for instance, some special artificially ice-cool cave is created within the zoo premises too for some polar bears, in order to keep them at a temperature, somewhat similar to their original habitat during most of the year except the English Winters. In fact, the entire overall arrangement is just too perfect, as it is regularly inspected by the relevant local Municipal & Govt. authorities too. The overall arrangement is just as impressive as that of the main Regents Park Zoo Garden, in the main city of London and the relevant British authorities are equally conscious to give it also an internationally accredited standard. The overall governing body here comprises a team of four senior persons and this team is headed by the ringleader Dr. Stuart McKenzie.

Time :-

To start the story, we have to identify the exact time for us to commence it. This relates to an incident that took place here a few years ago. This is the month of July in the year 2005. This is just about a few minutes to seven in the evening. There was a mild sudden shower a few minutes ago, for which the ground is still a little wet.

As so many of you are presumably aware that in England, this time of seven O’clock in the afternoon in the month of July of a year, if the weather is bright & the sky is clear, this is still very much in the afternoon and the evening will not dare to peep in until about late nine or nearing ten, as per the local clock. That is to write that it is still very much in the afternoon and most of the children, all the kids, who live in the Staff Quarters of this Zoo Garden, are playing here with all other friends or neighbours.

Characters :-

One such group of children here are three little girls, all are sisters. They are the three daughters of the person, as named just before, which is Dr. Stuart McKenzie. Their names are Tina, a teen-age girl, then it is Rina, a girl of eleven and the youngest of the lot is Mina, a girl of eight.

Tina is the eldest and she is apparently the in-charge of the other two sisters of hers. They do not just have a brother of their own here, although plenty of dear cousins are there elsewhere. Tina is a good student and a really a good athlete too. Rina is the next girl, she is not at all an athlete. Instead she is much of an absent minded child, although academically she is far brilliant as compared to the other two. Rina is far too imaginative and has an exceptional memory which is a real matter of pride to her parents. The little Mina is an average of the two. Their father loves them all & he very often takes personal attn. to their upbringing, inclusive of overall health, studies, proficiency in games, sports, extra-curricular activities for them in general.

The entire story deals with all these girls, their friends and the member of their families too, together with several persons, who are working at the Zoo premises as salaried employees and so many of them also reside in the allocated staff quarters. The story deals with them as well as their kids too.

Family background of these three girls :-

Let me introduce their parents in a nutshell to the readers.

Dr. Stuart McKenzie is originally a Scottish man, hailing from the tiny village, called Paisley near Glasgow, located in Renfrewshire in Scotland. He has successfully completed his master’s degree course in the Bio-Science from the famous University of New Castle in Northern England. Then he just decided to proceed further to complete his Doctorate degree at the same University too. So, he registered and already started his research.

However, at that juncture, he was seconded from his University to attend the prestigious conference in Singapore. This was 1987. This is an International Conference, an

d it is normally arranged once a year at Singapore. It hosts a lot of internationally famous Bio – Scientists from all over the World. Most of the delegates who decorate the rostrum & the podium are from the countries of East Africa, Other Southern African countries like Zambia, Gambia, South Africa, then Brazil, Ecuador, USA, Russia (mainly from Siberia), Asian Countries like India, Cambodia, China, Mongolia, Korea and several other countries in Asia, the countries from Oceania and last but not the least it is UK. He was indeed much surprised to notice that another delegate is there, who is also representing UK here at this International Conference. It is a girl, in the name of Ms Maureen Abel, another pretty Scottish Girl, she is hailing from a village near Aberdeen in Aberdeenshire in Scotland too. A polite enquiry, after a short introduction reveals that she has recently completed her Master’s Degree course from the World-famous University of Glasgow and engaged with research work at the same college. Accommodation for most of the delegates were organised at some hotels, located near the famous “Little India” in Singapore. Their accommodation was also arranged at the same hotel too.

This is how Stuart and Maureen met with each other during the initial registration desk just prior to the actual conference commences in Singapore. In the Conference, their seats were allotted next to each other and that is how, their initial friendship started growing slowly and it started crystallising further, when they had noticed that return journey from Singapore for London is strikingly in the same flight. They eventually landed in London Heathrow and finally had to proceed for their respective individual destinations, starting together, although in different flights, i.e. one for New Castle, while other for Glasgow.

As it is not difficult to imagine that the next few weeks and eventually it was next few months, it was an involvement of telephone calls within these two, initially was once a week, then twice a week, later thrice a week and finally it was daily for a protracted period too. In fact either of them fell in love with the other and so went on in a serial way the process of their courting. After over a year or so, they had finally decided to get married within themselves. Either of their parents was glad and either of them congratulated the other. That was later in 1988.

Meanwhile Stuart came across the notice of a job opportunity at this Whipsnade Zoo Garden and he applied for it. Although Maureen is also equally qualified, she refrained from applying for it. Stuart was selected here and so there starts the second chapter of his life. He started the second chapter with a smile and his ever-smiling wife.

Three of his daughters were born here and Maureen is just too engaged indeed as a dedicated proper housewife, although she is extremely and also equally active from her indoors in respect of her original subject of interest. She is a voracious reader of several international magazines or journals in the subject of biosciences and never hesitates to write sensible or authentic articles to some of these International journals too. Often, she gets invitation from several places at home or even countries abroad too to attend such International Conferences and she gladly joins all these too. Interestingly it is Stuart himself encourages her to do so and he himself contributes a lot for her to prepare most of her articles as well as edit her speech that she is supposed to deliver at the Conferences. The girls are so habituated at this never-ending routine, that they are sensible enough to accept it.

However today the visiting hour of the Zoo is just over. Normally during the summer days it is up to sixteen hours in the evening, i.e., four in the afternoon. Maureen has asked her daughters to get to the play ground, adjacent to their staff quarters and start playing with their friends and neighbours. However prior to that she also asked each of them to remember to take an apple each and eat that properly before getting out in the ground. There are a few such apples kept in the fruit basket left at the top of their dining table in the dining hall. Tina and Mina are too good little girls and obeyed that in to to. However, Rina is somewhat different type of a girl. She of course started nibbling the apple in front of Maureen and slowly started moving towards the playground. Instead of starting an immediate game, she decided to sit in a bench until that apple is over.

She started thinking within herself. What is it she is eating ! Is it an apple or a “napple”. The way Maureen pronounced it, she was rather confused as to whether it is an apple or a “napple”. Who should she approach here to clear her doubt or so-called confusion ! So many boys and girls are all playing in the compound close to her, in front of her and apparently there is no one, approachable for her, who has the mood to come and solve such interesting mystery (!) that she has unearthed. So she started thinking within herself, just by way of shuffling the little vocabulary whatever she has since acquired at home or the class of the school too. Well, no answer is there to get satisfied. So, she thus decided to remember it and keep that to ask her class teacher the next day in the class of her in the school.

In fact just a few minutes prior to their coming out in the playground, there was a bit of shower, rather a little bit of drizzling it was. The ground is somewhat wet, although not that much and not althrough. The ground in fact has a gentle slope, as a result of which, it quickly drains off and within ten to fifteen minutes, it takes the shape of a reasonably clean and dry place for the kids to play & enjoy together. That is what is happening today too, although at some places, it is a little slippery too. She was sitting at one of the park benches, located at the corner of ground, facing the Western sky as a solitary girl & indeed engrossed in her thinking. This is a habit that she has inculcated since her childhood and her parents, much to their disliking are aware of this habit of hers.

She was thinking of so many things at the same moment. Of course, the first of the lot was whether she is eating an apple or something else ! Just suddenly she noticed that a nice rainbow is there in the sky & it is so bright that each of the colours is too distinct from each other. They say that it has a total of seven colours in it and this display identifies all the colours in a clear & vivid method.

Well, why people call it a rainbow after all ! Is it, she keeps just asking herself, whether really there is someone who holds such a large size bow. At least she confesses to herself that no human can hold such a bow of such a large size to appear for archery or a practice. Well, she is somewhat glad to discover an acceptable answer ; perhaps it is Rain God Himself, is the right answer. Well if that is so, she keeps thinking within herself, where does Rain God keep such a bow after its purpose is over ! Well, who is there to help her to get some sur-realistic answer ! She keeps thus murmuring to herself to keep that as the next agenda to ask her class teacher in the next day’s classroom. 

Oh Dear ! She was immensely horrified to notice that while she was apparently engrossed in all such “utopian thoughts”, some squirrels have started nibbling her apple or the “napple” at ease, as if it is something they are having a picnic at her cost. So, she screamed at those little animals and chased them, then & there, with a bit of loud shouting. In fact, while she was doing her ‘research work’ over the rainbow, she did not notice as to what is happening with the fruit. That was the golden opportune moment for these little creatures to start an outdoor feast at her cost. However her chasing did not come out successful, as she got slipped and out of the impact she went a few meters after slipping like that a bit towards the zoo fence a little bit, although still several meters are away from it so far ! In fact, she went unconscious for a while, due to slippage, near the sitting bench in the park in the field. 

Just no idea as to how long was she was lying unconscious like that, since neither her sisters nor the other friends had noticed of her too.

At that moment, she heard as if someone is calling her with her name, from a far away distant place. It is a celestial feeling and she could not locate at the first instance, by watching all around her as to where the sound is just coming from ! She indeed became somewhat curious as to who that can be uttering her name ! Most of her friends and neighbours of her age group are still engaged in playing or running all round in the ground and it appears that none of them are interested in noticing her so minutely at all. So, who can that possibly be, calling her by her name ! She started thinking. It is not Dad, as she is aware of his voice and recognises his style of talking. Suddenly heard she that the name ‘Rina’ was uttered again. Much to her surprise she noticed and realised that a voice is coming from a distance and from a place, which is much higher up !

She looked all round again and looked upwards. She was surprised to notice, perhaps it is somewhat like a sound from an old man, who is appearing from the sky and approaching towards her. She kept looking towards that old man, as if she is mesmerised with that old man’s voice. In fact the picture of the old man, which was initially like a red & green dot at the beginning, from within the rainbow in the sky high above us, it got gradually started amplifying and later it started slowly enlarging, taking the shape of an old man.

It is appearing larger & larger and finally Rina noticed that an old man is appearing in person and in just a few moments indeed she was immensely surprised to notice his presence in front of her a few meters away at the playground himself too. He, i.e., the old man is holding a basket with him and out of the basket he took out something and gave it to Rina. Rina noticed that it is a large apple. It is a real good Worcester apple, red and fairly large too. Must be it is delicious too, she thought herself. The old man gave the apple to the girl and advised her to eat it. She was much hesitant since their parents told all three of them not to accept anything from any stranger under any circumstance and not even to accept anything eatable too. An apple is certainly an eatable item and this instruction from her dad is applicable here. So, she was hesitant and did not accept it from the old man. The old man smiled and realised her hesitation. He said that neither Stuart nor Maureen will say anything to her for such a trifling sin. Further this is not at all just a simple apple. This is a ‘magic apple’ & she thus should take it. In addition to that he gave the entire basket full of apples to her & told that this is full of such ‘magic apples’, as all these are brought just for her. Rina thus noticed that the basket is full of such apples; all are so large red Worcester apples.

So finally, as per the instruction of the old man, after a lot of hesitation, she decided to take it. He looks like an old Grandfather and thus she requested her grandpa to please sit next to her & also tell some stories to her. The old man smiled at her & accepted her request. He stressed that once she eats the apple, something interesting will happen to her, as if it is some sort of a magic will come over to her. This is too alluring an idea for any girl too. The magic is such that no one else will be able to notice her and she can reach anywhere as she likes. She can hear all the voices of all the animals. It could be here in the ground, up above the large trees and if she so desires, she can manage to have a “peep in” to the animals’ individual enclosures, keeping herself totally unhurt, as she desires, within the Zoo premises. She had been so far within the zoon in several instances and thus this statement did not allure her at all. Realising this little hesitation, the old man said that it is not just a simple tour of the zoo garden; instead, it is going to be a real adventure for her for the rest of her life even.

Grandpa kept on telling her that once she starts nibbling this apple a bit, it is not a ‘napple’, she will soon be slowly able to watch so many interesting things here or there or everywhere all round, such that a normal kid of her age will never be able to watch all those ever at all. In addition, she can go to or even reach at any place of her choice or desire comfortably, at the ground or even fly high up in the sky too without being noticed by anyone else. In other words, she will just totally become unnoticeable to anyone. She will be able to listen to all voices & all sounds arising from each of all the animals within the enclosure, able to watch so many interesting things, without getting herself noticed at all. Please remember, all these are possible just because of the magic apple, as without this nobody will ever be able to do so any of these at all in this earth. This is how she will become a real wise girl.

This is too much of an offer and so interesting that it is difficult for any little girl to refuse and not even for Rina. However, prior to having a bite in the apple, she asked as a matter of curiosity as to what is the name of Grandpa. The old man smiled again broadly and told that just his name is Isaac, later in response to Rina’s insistence and further request, he said that it is Isaac Newton. Rina murmured the name twice or thrice within herself. Then suddenly exclaimed she “Is it Sir Isaac Newton, Grandpa!” The old man smiled again and nodded his head as a matter of concurrence. Rina started that will mean ‘you are the super great Mathematician and Scientist of all ages that our Country has ever presented to the World’, the old man softly smiled at it again.

Rina was immensely excited as if she has discovered something, much too something significant as compared even to the original discovery of the gravitational force by Sir Isaac Newton himself. In fact, Sir Isaac kept his subtle constant smile and told that no one in the World will believe that he came off a poor farmer family in a Lincolnshire village in England. Like most families in the-then England, all the members of his family initially wanted him to be equally a farmer. However, since he did not like this idea and had something else in his mind as of then, he kept on thinking as to how to escape from it & instead do something different. What the world is aware of, that one day while noticing the falling of an apple in an apple orchard, he discovered the Gravitational force. It is no doubt true, although it is far from complete. There are a lot of untold stories hidden behind all these. True that he discovered this great law, still his greatest discovery in the field of science is the Laws of Motion, which in present days in the relevant chapter of General Physics or Mathematics are called “Newton’s Laws of Motion”. He is also remembered as the originator of a new system of mathematics. This is “Calculus”.

In fact, a lot of tiny although interesting incidents since have happened to his life, in his young days, he just kept on narrating to Rina. There was a tiny rivulet, rather a wide type of a drain, just near his village house. He designed and made a wooden over bridge for the average pedestrians to cross over. The most interesting item here is that in this neither a metallic bolt nor a nut, not even a metallic screw was applied. The concept of making this item was conceived, planned, designed & made all by himself, just with the help of some of his close friends. In fact, it was there in tact althrough for a few centuries in a perfect state & shape, constantly helping all the pedestrians in the village. The main concept of joining so many items were application of a collection of several lap joints, butt joints, taper joints, dove-tail joints, cotter pin and similar tiny elementary items and craftsmanship up to the finest level of accuracies. 

However, as a matter of super curiosity, a group of so-called modern scientists several centuries later from England, just only a few decades ago in the last century had dismantled the entire item of the total bridge as a matter of conducting intricate study and for scrutinising the design. The paradox of the entire incident is that much to the disliking of the local public, they were just unable to re-fit all the pieces in it, in order to regain the original shape or fashion & thus it was kept permanently dismantled until date for the rest of the World too. The then British Govt. thus decided, to pacify the agony of the local people, to preserve all these items together and since has kept all these items in the museum as an interesting exhibit so far.

As for insistence of Rina, Sir Isaac unfolded another tiny yet interesting story for her too. Since it was Sir Isaac had sympathy and also had a love for so many pets, like dog, cat, horse, cow, buffalo and even squirrels at his home little zoo, this is a little item of an interesting incident out of those. He had several pussy cats and they had the liberty to move well within the house, at their sweet will. The cats had a bad habit of reaching all intricate corners of the house and this is something his Mom did not like at all. So thus he decided to prepare a tiny replaceable room for the cat & placed it out of the house, although it was reasonably protected from the cold wind, slit or snow. He gave comfortable cushion at the floor for the pussy to lie down as and when she felt like. Now the interesting event is this. He created two doors in that little room, assuming that the larger door is for the large pussy, whereas the tiny little door was meant for the little kittens. The paradox of the incident was that the kittens never did enter or come out through the tiny little door, as it always followed the large pussy moving in & out through the larger door.
