Kitty Report

Here's the weekly kitty report. All five kittens are still alive. I repeat: all five kittens are still alive. Despite the curiosity of Lucille Grace they are still breathing and nursing from their mama. Their names are Vanilla, Mango, Stripes, Calico, and Grayson. Their eyes are still shut, they are still deaf (and meow like they're deaf too!), and they nurse constantly. Glad they weren't MY babies...I couldn't have handled the round-the-clock sucking.

Last night Alex heard a kitten meowing and she went into the laundry room and found Lucy fresh out of the shower, still naked, guilty as can be, hiding something behind her back. She was standing in front of the playpen (their new home) and as Alex questioned her she saw something drop into the playpen from behind Lucy's back. I'm having a hard time keeping these little people from holding these kittens without me around! I'm considering putting a lock on the door to keep Lucy out. She just loves them so much! Remember that song "Love Hurts"? I've come to appreciate a new meaning for that song between Lucy and the kitties.
