In The Boys Closet!

We have had an eventful week to say the least. Monday morning I got up at 5am so I could mop my entry way and kitchen tile (with four kids it is my favorite time to do it). I took out the trash and recycle first and when I opened the front door the stray cat that adopted us came running in. Not uncommon at all, and John has officially named himself Fred Flinstone as he said he is always throwing the cat out! Usually if we grab her food and take it out to her bowl she follows us right back out, eats, and then we don't see her again until the next morning when it is feeding time again. Anyway she ran in but I had my hands full with a bag of garbage and the recycle box so I went and dumped them both and then came back in and got her some food and put it outside and called her and she never came. I went back to the bedroom and called quietly, but I didn't want to wake the rest of the family. I went about my morning and mopped the floors and cleaned the bathrooms etc...... John got up around 8am and as he came down the hall we heard the Meow and saw the cat coming not far behind him. There was something different about her. She was ummm SKINNY! I told John, "I think that stinkin' stray cat was pregnant and has had her kittens in the house." We searched for awhile, under beds, what have you and could not find them. She was no help as she ate her breakfast outside and then we were hoping she would lead us to them, but she never went back down the hallway she just laid herself down on the front room floor. We kept looking and then realized that she was not in the front room anymore. Vincent joined the search and went to his room and called out that she was in his room. I ran back there and she indeed was in the center of the boys room. When I walked towards her she ran to the closet. I pulled out the three rope bins in the boys closet to find her huddled up in the corner with four baby kittens. They are stickin' cute, but not exactly what I wanted! The kids have been told although they play with them and such, they will be given away when they turn 6 weeks old. So does anyone want a kitten??????

I love baby kitties, too bad we can't come over and see them. Not that I want to take one home. We already have one cat and if you ask Ben it's one too many! Good Luck finding homes for them.
