OMG, tiny tiny kittens! [More:]I finally caught the cat I'm hoping to adopt (or at least get fixed and checked out). The poor thing has to stay in the cat room at the once-every-3-weeks vet clinic until Monday, but it's across the street so I can visit him lots, feed him and make a fuss over him.

The island's patron saint of homeless cats met me there. She's currently bottle-feeding a pair of 10-day-old kittens, and needed someone to take care of them on Saturday, so I volunteered. They're so so tiny; they just started to open their eyes yesterday. They have very healthy lungs, though, so no chance I'll miss a feeding. It's also opened the door to me doing more volunteer work for her and the vet clinic, which is great. They're right across the road, and I'm so excited to be able to do something tangible to help such good work. But more to the point, omg! tiny teeny wee kittens! with their tiny kitten bellies and softness and general irresistibleness!

*claps her hands like an excited 2 year old*
oh, and also, yay! a healthy Felix the Cat who I can let inside without sprayness!

Need pictures of all the kittahs! Especially before the little ones get older.

As in, 'this thread is useless without'? Yeah, I know. No digital camera, though. I'll see what I can do.

Film is ok - you've still got the scanner, yah?

Yeah, but no photo developing place for miles. I'll take 'em anyway, and scan the paper results for maybe my flickr page or something.

Kitties! When I was little, my birth mother had two siamese cats named Ghengis Khan and Ching Lee who had nine kittens. I just love those little mews they make and how they stumble when they walk. Too cute.

(hi e!)

Ooo, lucky you! Plus, you get to be a favorite "aunt". You can enjoy feeding them and you can give them back before the funness wears off.

I just made these. || I used to be disgusted. But now I try to be amused.
