Charlotte Gray, the only elusive barn cat that I managed to not get the vet's to get spayed, gave us quite a surprise yesterday morning. Dennis had been telling me she was getting as round as a bowling ball and that he was pretty sure she we were going to have kittens here pretty soon. Well, he was right ...

Four little black and white kitties.

I'm reading up on when I can safely take them from Charlotte and raise them up somewhat civilized so I can find them nice homes. I'll be waging a big, splashy kitten adoption campaign in the lobby of the kids' school here in the future.

Any readers living in the Santa Fe, New Mexico area who'd like to adopt one after they're weaned, I'd be happy to hear from you!
