Saturday, the mother cat returned her kittens to the barn.  My daughter
found them and was able to scoop all four up and take them into the house,
where they promptly went under the dresser in the kitten room.
Buddy, their brother, who had been enjoying the life of a pampered cat was
surprised when his siblings hissed at him, but then he showed them how he
had trained a kitten slave to give him food and tummy rubs.
Christine told me that there were four pairs of bright eyes and four tiny
pink noses peeking out from under the dresser, watching this demonstration.
One of Buddy's siblings came out and ate with him and even wrestled with him
a little, before zipping back under the furniture.
None of the others came out, but Christine left food and water for them and
left them alone in the room.
