I'd love to keep them all but I already have five cats and six rabbits. I have more good homes than I do kittens fortunately so if I did let them all go I know they would be well cared for.

Twice I have been chatting to Tabitha about this. Asking her what she thinks and if she would like to keep any (some of you may think this sounds a bit mad, but it made sense to me!!) Both times she has left my bedroom and shortly after I have heard a meow and when I have opened the door she has moved one of the kittens from the spare room 'nursery' to outside my door. Both times it has been the little grey kitten. Do you think she is trying to tell me something? It's only ever after we have been chatting about the future of her fur babies that she has done this.

I have had many cats but never a grey one and if I did keep one that would be the one so it is good Tabitha agrees I then have the dilemma of if it would be fair to keep just one as I work all day and the poor little thing may get bored. I have always had kittens in pairs in the past.

It may just be co-incidence but it really looked like Tabitha was trying to show me what she wants me to do. I wonder if I gave her a room full of numbers she could pick out a lottery win for me?
