Kittens in the laundry room: Day 2

The wee ones in my laundry room are doing fine today, healthy as they can be as they are getting lots of love, care and good milk from their mom. I'm growing to tolerate the mother cat more as I guess we have something in common now — motherhood.

My little ones got right out of bed this morning to greet their little babies. The girls are so cute because they keep counting the kittens to make sure all five of them are there. As soon as they get home from school they'll be right back in there with the cats.

I introduced the new residents of my laundry room to what actually supposed to take place in there — doing laundry! I started the dryer last night and the babies didn't flinch. Their mom was a tad worried but she soon got over it. Running the washer this morning was a little more frightening for her, I guess since it involved the running of water, but she didn't make too much of a fuss although she was scared at first. Again the little ones didn't mind at all.

It's a good thing I did laundry all day the day before they were born but it's going to start accumulating again. I'll need my laundry room back or at least will need to share it.

We're in a quandry as to what to do with the cats. They're too little to go outside but we don't want them in here. We're heading off for the weekend and are thinking of asking the neigbors to take them for a few days. We'll take it from there after that. In the meantime we'll just indulge in the fascination of having newborn kittens in the house!
