That is incredibly touching.

I used to breed pedigree cats (on a very small scale and as a hobby) so most of my cats are used to A) living in a group of cats B) having kittens around from time to time. This is an important reason why things went so smoothly from their side. <BR/><BR/>Surprise is an extremely clever cat and very diplomatic (she hadYolanda Elizabet Heuzenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02506031220151023088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274925030972014073.post-74919456718103268302007-04-06T06:04:00.000+01:002007-04-06T06:04:00.000+01:00I'd love to know what they're really thinking duri...I'd love to know what they're really thinking during all of this.
