As it turns out, beneath my tough, abrasive, and utterly straight forward exterior, there is an actual BEATING heart. I know, i know, big shock to me as well. It would seem that I, and my veterinary class mates have discovered what may be considered a weakness in my armor.

Chinese food.

No seriously, it seems i cannot function around kittens. Like at all. Unless of course, its to feed, hold or calm them down.

The run down: Momma cat was hit by a car, baby cats(2/male) were brought to the vet office(2weeks old) and then we, as a class, adopted them. They are currently too young to be sheltered and no fosters were available. Which is how we come to take turns taking them home to care for their 24/7 needs. I just so happened to land on the 3 day weekend.

I dont mind though, because of course, im a slave to the savage little demons. And loving every minute of it.

Oh, and feeding after math

There will be night mares and milk induced panic attacks for years.

Both of them very adorable and I wish I could adopt them. I think you worry too much about them. Just let them grow up by themselves.

Adoreable! I do the same thing. I keep saying I refuse to foster very young litters of kittens anymore. But I can never resist the little guys. There is nothing cuter than young kittens. I'm more of a dog person if I had to choose, but even I have to admit that kittens usually outdo puppies in cuteness.

Fostering bottle fed kittens is a lot of hard work, and a lot of mess!

That's adorable...and they're adorable! Good for you guys for taking on their care.

The real question is...once old enough to be adopted out, are you going to be the one who takes them home permanently? ;)
