Since Sunday I’ve been caring for a young kitten – five, perhaps six weeks old – found alone by neighbors in a storeroom.  I don’t need another cat, but she needed care and I wouldn’t to help.  She seems to be in good health, though she was a bit thin and undernourished.  A few days on wet food and kitten formula should fix her up.  She’s really quite beautiful, with striking tabby stripes and evidence of some Maine Coon qualities.  She stole my heart in five minutes flat.

Her purr motor is wonderfully loud for such a tiny cat.  Turn up computer volume on the video and you’ll hear little Emily roar…
