i have a brand, spankin’ new, four-week-old female scrap of fur!! 
the backstory: da niece, who is a junior at ball state, took in this abandoned three-week old scrap of fur last week, after the university put out an sos to find homes for five abandoned kittens. all is copacetic.
until she gets a call about a puppy.
you already see where this is going don’t you?
so she texts her aunt anne, all in a dither because she wants **both **animals. i tell her with her schedule (she works in addition to going to classes) she can’t do both. being the softheart (and head) that i am, i told her i would take the kitten if she wanted.
she took me up on the offer. what was i gonna do, let her take the tiny thing to the humane society? not.
her parents were less than thrilled with her about all this, but we’re all animal lovers, so they understood while still not approving her behavior.
so, the superkitty pop at casa scubaqueen just increased to three. mike the vet says she’s doing fine and to start her on solid food mixed with water. so, kitten lovers, please recommend me some wet food for the wee one.
oh, and she needs a name, too. hint, hint…
obligatory pix below. i still can’t do the fancy link thingy, tho.
