Remarkable Happenings

Let's see now - what's it been, about 2 weeks since Tigger took off with the two kittens.  Well he showed up this morning and low and behold he had the little grey kitten with him.  The little guy seems to be ok, maybe a little thinner but in good health.  I went ahead and fed them some wet cat food and they both had good appetites.  I'm giving serious thought about putting the little grey on our screened in porch with Skeeter and our other cats.

 

I gotta funny story about the little black and white we call Skeeter.  Well, Cathy insisted that we take him to the vet before we got attached.  So Monday we took him in and turned him over to the vet.  They put him in a cage with 3 other kittens awaiting adoption.  He slinked over into a corner and watched us the whole time we were there.  Cathy went over to the cage and tried to pet him but he wasn't having anything to do with her.  He was ticked off and scared to death.  So we went on our way and the whole time we were talking about how dejected lil' skeeter was about being dumped in that cage.  Anyhow we both kept questioning whether we had done the right thing.  Sooooo - the next morning we decided to get him and bring him home.  He was sooooo happy to get back to our porch and the other cats - you could hear him purring from 5 feet away.

 

 

I guess we're both a pair of softies, especially when it comes to kittens.  God knows we have enough of them hanging around.  But we get them fixed and it keeps the population down a little.  So - it's off to a good start for a rainy day.
