Kitten News

Yes, it's time that I help the mamas feed their babies. The first batch (the all-dark ones) are big enough it shouldn't be a problem but the second batch of babies are only about a week old and their eyes aren't even open, which is gonna be *iffy*. I had hoped to put it off until they had their eyes open, but no. As long as the mama helps out, I have a chance. And she made her point quite clear when she dropped one of the white ones right beside my computer desk. LeeAnn was right there, ready to kill the "mouse" but luckily I was able to call her off before she could hurt it. She would have killed though, she had that look in her eye. But it's only when they are so tiny and squeak that she's bad; once they grow up and have some size she's ok with them. And I can't quite bring myself to punish her when both Mom and I used to encourage her mousing abilities. *SIGH* So I am off to go and buy some animal bottles and prepare myself for a round of feeding kittens.

Back later on.

Nightly Update

It's chilly out. Brrrrr! So, the news. I got kitten formula and a bottle (I hated to get yet another bottle but damn, I can't find the others.) I checked on the kittens a few times but they were snug and warm and *quiet*, so I decided to let them go until tomorrow. If they had been in distress, that would be one thing. But they seem so peaceful... and I was wrong about the first batch of kittens -- they *do not* have their eyes open yet, so they are a little younger than I originally thought.

Secondly, I am working on a fic. Trouble is, I have several ways to go and I can't quite decide which way I want to take -- they are all good, and any of them will work for my purposes. How come I can do this with fic and not RL? (That was a rhetorical question, btw.)

Just caught a puppy team commercial on tv, pitching Viero (sic) wireless cell phones. *so cute...* heeee!

Not much other news, other than I am going to go to bed *early* for a change. For reals. Niters!
