Kittens!

On Memorial Day our kittens were born, six of them. I actually got to be midwife for 4 of them! That was so amazing!

Momma kat, Lilly, is a very good mother though she had to be coaxed at first. She was a little puzzled and concerned about these things coming out of her, but after we got a box with towels she settled right in. She already moved them away from the kids who were loving them toooo much. My favorite is this little guy who i've named modge... or mudge... depending on whether its a boy or girl. (not sure about THAT just yet.)

My second favorite is Midnight, so named because it is completely black. Not a speck of any other color. He/she is also the smallest and already poked its head through one of the handle holes in the box, and got his/her head stuck there. Poor mite!
So the black and white tabby is spoken for but if anyone else wants a kitten, now is the time to put your dibs in!

Okay, so Kimberly says you have to bring her one...just kidding - I wish! I wish I weren't allergic to them - I'd love to be host to a bunch of new kittens!

Congratulations on a successful delivery, Ma'am.

See you NEXT week!

Too bad Kevin, Katie & I are all allergic to cats...
