kitten
Lest I forget, I came home from the bar last night and found a very rambunctious kitten in my mother's living room. It's been four years since she had a new cat, so I figure she is overdue. (For those keeping score at home, we are now at a grand total of nine.)
A man brought in some very sick kittens he found from a young stray. They were terribly covered in fleas and needed a real meal. My mother has learned to resist kitten charms and usually only rescues very ill or serious cases. She has the resources to allow her to take good care of them. Well the girls at the clinic persuaded my mother to finally look at this little fluffball. It's pale with a black nose and some smoke colored points and a stripe across her hindquarters. She has blue eyes. The kitten bears a remarkable resemblence to my mother's most beloved cat Whisper. Of course, she was smitten. So now China the fearsome kitten resides with all the other rescue kitties.
I'd forgotten how overwhelmingly cute kittens are. This is one is extra special. She's fearlessly exploring and leaping around. Whisper seems to like her, which is unusual as he normally ignores the new kittens. He's getting to be an older, lazy cat. I think he is 11 years old this year.
Kittens are grand.

This reminds me how we went from "only one cat!" to three.
Also? Man I love that icon. Can I know where you got the pics, or, well, snitch it from you? XD
