We were at Mom and Dad's tonight. E looked out on the front porch and saw the new batch of kittens. With great excitement she said, "Oh look! Blackie is a little kitty again!"
"Blackie" was a baby kitten last summer and is now an adult cat. I'm not sure what she'll think when she sees them both out on the front porch and how that will register with her schemata. But for tonight, she was very excited to see "Blackie" as a kitten once again.
I'm not sure that the kittens are any safer this year. Last summer we had to constantly remind her to pick the kittens up by the belly and NOT the neck. Tonight she picked one up and promptly 'dropped' it off of the porch to the ground. She then wondered why they all ran away and wouldn't let her pick them up again. Although the kittens are probably inbreed, I'm not thinking that they are too stupid if they are smart enough to stay away from the 3 foot tall little girl...
