So in the middle of all of the stuff in the house, a small point of fun: four kittens romping in the back yard. Imagine my surprise to look out the back window and find a mamma kitty with four 6-8 week old kittens.
I’m going to have to contact the Knox Feral Cat rescue. Hopefully the kitties can be trapped and placed in homes. I love cats, but it isn’t fair to have four feral ones in my back yard.

Stella is having trouble again. She has been doing so well for the past two months. She has decided that she prefers Ambush’s high protein food to her own lower protein dry food. She won’t eat her dry food now. I’m feeding her wet food but I have to constantly keep Ambush out of it….
