on a few of the things you need to be on the lookout for. First of all the

kitten

is house-trained and she answers all her nature calls in the kitty litter we have set up downstairs near the side entrance. All you have to do is make sure to empty it out every night in the garden across the street. Add fresh sand from the sand every two days. I have two full sandbags in the garage, they will be enough for the duration of the holidays. The

kitten

food is in the brown cupboard in the garage. Make sure to feed her one can of

and a glass of milk per day. She usually eats around the evening and has her milk in the morning. The cleaners will show up every other day to dust and clean the house. You just have to let them in the morning. I told them you live across the street so they will probably ring your bell. The plants will need watering though. Given the heat in Lahore, I would suggest watering them every evening.

While

we are out the utility bills will be due, please do let me know the amount I will pay through my bank’s smartphone app. Other than that, everything is good, not much can go wrong. All the gas connections are off from the main and I have unplugged all the major electronic devices

such

as the iron. Thanks again , buddy. I definitely owe you a favour. Regards, Humayun
