This was truly and honestly the first time I did not want to give the kittens back. These three kittens came to me at 5 weeks or so, and they did not return until they were almost 10 weeks! I kept them a long time mainly because they got colds and were on medicine for a couple of weeks, then Cinderella had to take more because she did not recover as well as the others. So as a precaution, they all stayed with me to get better.
My 98 year old grandmother passed away during this time as well, and these kittens were so cuddly and lovable, it was as if they were meant to be with me at this time. They were not rowdy, or too rough, or too curious...they were just the best combination of love bugs.
It has been a very hard time losing my Abui, someone who has experienced every big event in my life. I have been fortunate in that I have not experienced a close family member passing before this time, and even though you know everyday is a blessing with someone in their late 90's it really doesn't help you miss them any less.
Now it's not that I was happy the kittens were sick, but it worked out great didn't it? At a time when my family needed extra love, I actually got love bugs!
