August 10th, 2013-- WV

     Rebecca and I spent the night at her friend Sidney's house. There were so many other cats! There were eleven the first day (seven big ones, four kittens), and then this morning we went outside to get in the truck, and the cats were screaming! There was a new sound, though.
     "Mew," it shrieked. "Reeeeeeeekkkkkkkkk!" After careful search, we found a new kitten behind some boxes.

Sidney held it for a minute. A grey cat with a crescent shape on its chest watched warily. It was her baby. She let us play with it for a minute...

 

Then picked it up...

 

Carried it off...

 

And hid behind a tank in the garage.

 

 

Judging by the speed with which she ran, I don't think she approves of our friendship with her baby. 

     So, anyway, now Sidney's garage has twelve cats.

     We decorated aprons together (since Rebecca and Sidney are forever making messes in each others' kitchens), looked at old pictures, jumped on the trampoline, and then talked all night.

     We also climbed out the window, just for the fun of it!
