Guess what just happened

[Siwsan]

I was out taking a stroll and found 3 kittens. Two had already crossed the Rainbow Bridge and one is still alive. I know YOU know what happened. I gave the two siblings a safe burial and brought the remaining angel inside. I am 99% sure it's a girl and seems to be healthy. I'm guessing she's maybe 3 weeks old. Fortunately I always have replacement milk on hand and will let her try a taste of pate, just to see how it goes. Meanwhile I'll check on/feed her about every 4 hours. Right now she's snoozing over my heart and Merlin is perched behind us. He seems very cool with this baby but I already know the others won't be so accepting.

For now I'm just going to concentrate on the present. Hopefully I can find her a good home. If not, well, guess I'll be adding to the family.

As for the two who didn't make it - we've had a very cold and heavy rain day. I did my utmost to see if there was any chance there was still a chance to revive them. I knew for sure that the smallest one was already gone and after much effort I accepted the other was, too.

Anyway, here's a photo of Gwenllian (Gwen, for short). It's (pronounced [ɡwenˈɬi.an)

I've wanted a kitty for a while, although it makes NO sense for our life. But if it was THIS particular kitty, I might have to figure out how to sort it out...

Dear Siwsan:
Thank you so much for everything you do for the precious babies you've found. I know how hard you work to save every single one of them. You are truly a beautiful soul with a heart of gold. The world is a much better place with people like you in it.

Please keep us posted on Gwen's progress. I live in a condo and can only have two pets; otherwise, I'd take her in a heartbeat.

28. Oh that poor sweet little thing.

I'm so glad you happened along and saved her. I wonder what happened to their mother. Maybe one of your kitties will take to mothering her.

[Siwsan]

29. I'm going to see if I she might be around

We're in for thunderstorms tonight so I couldn't risk leaving her to chance.

She's very content, right now, just sitting and watching me type about her.

[patphil]

30. You're an angel Siwsan. In the right place at the right time to at least save one of them.

Tell her all her DU aunties and uncles are rooting for her, and looking forward to lots more pictures.

Hang in there, little Gwen!
