Hi folks,<br>
<br>
Well, I had an enjoyable weekend and I hope you did too. It's amazing
how quickly I can get used to living by my own schedule, not the one
that work and the alarm clock dictates. Left on my own, I'd rather be
up when it is cool and sleep during the heat of the day. I sure didn't
want to get up this morning. It did help that it was cooler than I had
expected. That rain yesterday evening helped out a lot. It helped out
everything but our kittens, anyway. Our mother cat had been moving
her kittens around in the house trying to find a spot where she thought
they would be safe and out of the way, and we hadn't been able to find
them after her last move. Then yesterday evening, after the big rain
at our house, here she came through the bedroom window with a little,
wet, chilly, bedraggled, pitiful looking kitten in her mouth! (We're
usually pretty civilized and have window screens on our windows, but
this one had somehow gotten bent and damaged and once the cats
discovered they could climb on it and make it come loose enough to get
in the house, that was that.) We grabbed up the flashlight and went
out to find the rest of the kittens. Fortunately we could hear one of
them complaining about being wet and cold, and when we found them they
really looked sad! Once we took them in, dried them off and warmed
them up a lot, and let them get some food in them, they acted a lot
better. The only lasting bad side effect is that one of them seems
unable to use it's back legs now. And of course it was one that my
daughter was particularly attached to. At least, since they're still
alive this morning, maybe there's hope that this will get better. <br>
