I Am A New Mother!

I'm no Octomom, but caring for 3 kittens keeps you hopping!

Just like most people in our 'burg, we have wild cats. Last night one of the females that thought our home was her home decided it was time to have a litter of kittens. This morning Patrick and I checked on her to find 2 dead and 4 live kittens. By the time we returned we rescued 3 still alive. For some reason the mother abandoned the tiny newborns.

Luckily, we had a couple old medicine droppers in the drawer. They are working pretty good actually.

Not sure what this evening will bring, but for now, they are content to suck down a little milk and sleep...quietly sleep.

Check back to see how the 3 (un-named to date) kittens do!
