I stopped by to visit friends and suddenly I’m being handed kittens “want one? two? three?” A neighbor had a feral litter in his yard and my friends took three kittens off his hands, but since they already had one cat it’s getting to be too many. After a couple hours one of them seemed to take a shine to me and so now I have a very affectionate little ball of needles.

I don’t know how this sleeping-on-top-of-me thing is going to work out once he’s allowed out into the rest of the house and/or gets bigger. I think I can deal with a cat sleeping on the bed, but I’m not so crazy about waking up to find one draped across my throat with its face in my beard (which is how he spent a fair amount of time today).
