Leah - such good input. I wasn't heeding all this stuff when I let a young girl with a baby adopt one of my kittens last April. She took the baby and when I inquired about it 3 days later - she said she'd have to take it somewhere because it peed on her carpet and her husband was gonna kill it if she didn't do something. The kitten was back in my home that evening. I asked her if she ever had a kitten before and she said yes when she was little. I learned a good lesson. This kitten has now been adopted by a lady I know here at work that knows alot about animals and loves them. Thank God for the happy ending It could have been disastrous!!!
