With winter declining daily, the most important season of the year is near: the season of kittens.  I haven’t raised a bottle baby in a couple of years, but as I’m known in the community as the Cat Man, I make a special trip in late winter to the pet store to prepare myself with a few tools I’ll need on hand if a little orphan kitten be dropped at my doorstep:

With this (and, hopefully, enough colostrum from its mother to get her started), a heating pad, warm wet towels, and the will to wake myself up two or three times during the night, I’m ready to play cat daddy once again.

Surely no one can honestly call themselves a cat person unless they keep kitten formula on hand…
