One day, our neighbor called us asking if we wanted to try to raise baby kittens. Of course we wanted to!! They were only 2 1/2 weeks old, but the mother cat had abanded them and so we bottlefed them until they were a couple months old. When we first got them, they could fit in a tiny box & lived by my bed, but they quickly outgrew that and "graduated" to a kennel. There were five of them. One was black with white whiskers named Seal, one was orange and white, one was orange, black, & white, named Truffles, and one was grey. We had sooo much fun with them. Our family would take them out on the lawn and play with them when the days were pleasant outside. We were able to find some really good homes for them all, although us kids were very sorry to have to see them leave.
