We were about halfway down the lane when we heard a noise. At first, we thought it was a bird calling. We also noticed something black in the road. A shoe? We soon realized that the noise was coming from the black shoe and, then, it started to move toward us. Definitely not a shoe. The shoe was a kitten. She let Sweetums pick her up. She purred and cried at the same time. Definitely talented. Sweetums handed me the house keys and the kitten and I took her home and Sweetums and Gus continued down the lane.
I brought her in and put her on the counter with some kitten chow. While she ate and purred and hollered, I got out the flea drops and put one on her neck. She didn’t even notice. She had fleas and ear mites and she was starving.
So now, we have another mouth to feed. And what a mouth!
