I think I'll call her Sunshine...

Okay the strangest thing happened the day after I put my sweet Zoey to sleep. I came home and my neighbor told me that there was three kittens living under my back deck. I caught just a glimpse of two of them really just for a few seconds. I called my vet, and she told me to buy them kitten milk replacement formula and to feed them kitten food softened up in the milk.
So I did, and I put some of Zoey's food out in case the mother cat was under the deck as well. According to the vet the kitten milk is really good for the mother, it helps her to produce more milk. I’ve now seen the mother cat a couple of times, buts she’s very frightened of people. I hoping to build her trust and be able to bond with her over time. She looks just like the first cat I had as a child, Charlie... Squeeze…
She had the kittens out in the back of the yard sleeping in a flower bed of irises this afternoon. OF course she was too far away to really see the kittens, but I could just make out one of their little heads that popped up when I was watering my garden. I can’t wait until I can hold and pet them, but it seems like that’s a long way off. The mother, whom I think of as Sunshine, runs away when she sees me and I’m closer to her than twenty feet. So of course I can’t get close enough to take her picture, but here's one I download that looks like her…
Isn't it strange that the universe brings me new kitties, while I’m morning the loss of my sweet Zoey…
