Hi Brenda! It's wonderful to hear from you despite the sad circumstances... :(
I'm sure Miss Kitty is receiving a fine homecoming from her babies! That is my only consolation when Sleepypants must leave us...that he will be reunited with his mom and brothers and the family will be whole again! Please take care and let us know if you need anything at all! Jen **************************************************** "But if you tame me, then we shall need each other.
