野良猫

Today's Kanji:
=============
野良猫
のらねこ (Nora neko)*
Stray cat

Useful kanji for me since I love cats and there are some stray cats around my house, so being able to say it will come in handy! ;-) But be careful when you handle stray cats, always wear a pair of garden gloves before you try to touch them. They are not bad in nature just that they are very scared of human beings (due to lack of close contact) and will be on self-defense at all times. They are just being themselves. Once there is trust, the bond is just overwhelmingly strong!

*Being able to visualize the word via romaji actually helps me remember the pronounciation easier.
