Now that Daily Heights is the #1 Destination on the Internet for Free Kittens (Note: There are No Free Kittens(TM)), it’s very appropriate to highlight the following post in the Prospect Heights Message Boards:
nybt writes: “My wife, kind soul, has found a stray cat that needs a home and some TLC that we just can’t provide (we already have two cats, etc.). Can anybody provide a home for her or suggest a shelter where she can stay ’til she finds a home?”
UPDATE: “Either the cat is really constipated, or it’s very pregnant. If not for the very solid, very round belly, she’d be rail thin. .”
UPDATE to UPDATE: “Approximately 3 hours ago, Cat went in to labor! She has given birth to 5 black/gray/white bundles of joy! … Anybody need a kitten in two-three months?!”
UPDATE to UPDATE to UPDATE: “On a very sad note- the runt, named ‘Beatle’ by my wife’s co-worker’s son, died on Friday … It was a very sad day in house- I root for the underdog, and as such he was my favorite.”
“The remaining 4 are very healthy- they’ve tripled in weight and are just starting to open their eyes.”
