you know im late im late for i very important date shes the only cat i know who when indulging in the cat thing about sitting in a bag will til with her head inside and her bottom hanging half out utile cat and her mother cockeyed cat have a marvelous nursery system going they manage to have their litters within a week of one another and if one of c e cats kits starts crying l cat will rush over carry it back to her own litter to nurse it quiet and vice vena by the end of the day theres no telling what belongs to who to we just put them all in one big puny pile the mothers have worked out a shift system where one will take care of all the kittens for four hours while the other mother goes hunting then almost four hours to the minute later the hunter will take her place as mother they touch noses and make a few cat type nolaes and you can almost hear the question how did things go and the answer well i ted the three orange the two grey and the black theyre all washed except for the striped and he wouldn t let me do his part oh and the black ate loo fast and hasnt burped at six oclock they both lie a a down cheek to cheek with their dublin cost front paws entwined and their bodies stretched out in a long 16 o hi cots naitl0d faucet line for the kittens to have a good feed a good wash and then a good sleep while the mothers both go out for the night theyre both due before too long again and 111 have to be thinking about what to do with all the kittens its too bad that they never need anything like that at the school since beth is always on one committee or other to take things to the class for valentines day i was going to give her crispy cookies since theyre easy to make and fairly- inexpensive but lleth wanted to make fudge i knew shed never get very far
