Once again a homeless cat from the neighborhood had kittens, but this time she somehow snuck onto our enclosed front porch when the door was left open. She didn't abandon them, and has made a place behind an old car seat we have out there. We've been feeding her and now the kittens are about 5 weeks old and they get soft food.

One of them is weaker than the other 2, so Libby and Cat have taken them all to the vet to be checked. Here's a pic Cat took with her cell phone. Aren't they cute?

Libby just called: the little one has an upper respiratory infection and they have antibiotics for him, and the other 2 are very healthy. We are all relieved. We've been feeding him chicken broth, and he loves it. Chicken broth has worked magic on other sick kitties we've had.

The little one, who yesterday was so wobbly and weak, came out meowing to Libby this morning! He demanded food and cuddles, which is a big change. Of course the other 2 kittens are as rowdy and noisy as ever.

I`m glad the kitty is feeling better. They are so cute when they`re little, I`m going to take some pics of the kitties we have here and I`ll post them.

You are a special person Melanie, taking in helpless little critters like that. Its a pleasure knowing you. Shouse and I and a few of the others have decided to move in with you. And let you take care of us. We'll discuss the menu later.

Thats why we are bringing spraytech and Kris. The menu will have to be kicked up a bit. We'll discuss it.

Yes we do. You can help with the chores. And the nurse can help me.

Insurance doesn't pay for that kind of nursing help.

How about Cream of Wheat and cheese? It's light, but it binds.
