Pet Animals

My father, Pakki Venkataramana (fondly called by villagers as 'Ramana Guruvu) was a village doctor and people from not only my village but also from very far off villages does come to him for treatment. Many people that my father's hand is very good one and whenever he treats a patient the patient and the family members are confident that the patient will be cured soon.

My father loves animals - always a dog (Tommy) accompany my father to villages when goes for check ups. This dog was there with our family for more than 10 years or so. Its a black in color and many people loves Tommy for its faithfulness.

We also used to have a parrot,tortoise, koel, goats, cows, hen etc. The parrot used to call names whenever people visit our house. Its so interesting to listen to the voice of these parrots. At times you will feel like the voice of a woman/children.

In the village you will find a number of types of beggars come on seasonal basis. One of those groups are called "Buda Budakkalu Vallu". People from different castes come for begging. There was an incident with these Buda Budakkalu Vallu - which you can read in a separate article.
