Kitten Explosion

[Saavy]

Back in June when a neighbor's house burnt, I rescued three tiny kittens from the house. They are ten months old now; two boys and a girl.

We've had some severe weather where the power has gone out, but we have a whole-house generator connected to the gas line. The generator kicks on when the power is off for more than three minutes.

The problem is that the generator sounds like a cross between an earthquake and a disgruntled Teamster when it starts up. Once it cycles down, you hardly hear it at all.

Our power went out, and all three kittens were piled up on top of each other on the couch when the generator kicked on. All of a sudden I had a kitten explosion; all three of them flew up off the couch and took off in three different directions. One flew under the guest room bed, another landed in the bathtub, and the third tried to make herself one with the china cabinet.

I guess you would have had to be here when it happened but mercy, I laughed my head off!

My five adult cats slept through the whole thing. They're used to it. LOL!

Blessings and purrs,

Kittens are fun. My cat is ten years old and is like your older cats.

LOL! Now I know why I never had more than two kittens at a time. You can grab two kittens at one time but it's that doggone third one that escapes.

I surely understand the term 'herding cats.' LOL!

Awww, I'm so happy that you saved them!! I remember the time when my mommy cat gave birth to a bunch of kittens. Wow, chaos all over the place, those little fuzzballs trying to get everywhere, including bags and what not. lol I miss those times so much now, but then I consider my 3 cats as 'kittens', they're still full of mischief!! :3

Thank you so much! Kittens are a hoot, a headache, and a labor of love all rolled into one fuzzbally package.

I've had lamps relocated to the floor, super duper pooper scooper duty, a hairball in my shoe, hallway runner surfing, robe-climbing, kitten attendance in the bathroom, and other necessary evils associated with terrorist kittens.

But God is so good. I'm able to pay the vet bills and no one has been seriously injured...yet. LOL!
