New Kittens

Yesterday I enjoyed a day off. Well kind of enjoyed, first off there
was no power at my house all morning, a common thing here. So while
the power was off I cleaned, I bleached and washed all the walls in my
room and cleaned the floors and windows really well. After I finished
cleaning my room I put everything back, and made sure to zip all of my
bags shut, since I had a pregnant cat and I didn't want her to give
birth in my bag. Later that afternoon I went on a H.A.S.H run with
some other ex pats then returned home and watched a movie.

I noticed that evening that I never saw the cat, but didn't think much
of it until I went to bed. I started to fall asleep when I heard some
meow's and some really little meows! I looked all around the room and
couldn't find them, it is then I discovered one of my bags unzipped a
few inches. I opened it to find my cat Little Ghost with two tiny
kittens, and another on its way out still, how GROSS! I don't think I
will ever look at that bag the same. Well a few hours later, we had 3
live little kittens, and one that didn't make it. I have had a
multitude of cats through the house now, but it is a hard life for
cats here and I have had four not pull through, either they are born
sick, they run away, the mom doesn't like them, or the wild dogs get
them.

My new cats are adorable and fit in your hand they are so small. I
hope you all enjoy your vets back home

Hey, I studied PL/1 programming by the light of a kerosene lamp, in 1969. I can go back further, we didn't get electricity on the farm until 1957. Before that, only kerosene lamps. The soft gentle glow is kind of nice. For a while, anyway. (Smile!)

OK... what does your acronym H.A.S.H. stand for ???
