I have several pet animals and birds and all of them are quite fond of me. I don’t remember any of them daring to eat from my plate.

Given was an exception. The moment I would reach the dining-room, he would emerge from the window, cross over the courtyard wall and the verandah, reach the table and would want to sit in my plate. With great difficulty, I taught him to sit close to my plate. His favorite food, where he would dexter¬ously eat each grain of rice. His favorite food was Kaju and when not avail¬able for several days, he would refuse other food items and threw them down from the swing.

Around that time, being injured in a motor car accident, I had to spend some days in the hospital. Those days, whenever my room was opened, Gillu would rush down from his swing, but on seeing somebody else, he would, with the same alacrity, scuttle back to sit in his nest. Everyone would offer him Kajjj, but when I cleaned up his swing on my return from the hospital, I discovered it was full of Kaju, which only showed how little he was eating his favorite food those days! During the course of my indisposition, he would sit near my head on my pi How and gently stroke my forehead and hair, and his moving away was like the going away of a nurse or attendant!
