While the Kitten’s Away

Ashton: Some of you have asked how the rest of us are doing while Cupcake is out having adventures, so we thought this was a good time to update you.

Ashton: No fair! Do you really think so?

Pierre: I don’t care. I am going to enjoy napping while she’s gone.

Ashton: As long as she’s somewhere else.

Pierre: You could be somewhere else if you won’t let me sleep. Maybe you could go with her next time.

Ashton: I don’t think so.

    Newton, I knew you like Cupcake – it was not hard to guess! But of course, I read Ashton’s story in Rescued Volume 2, which is how I figured.

    Kittens are certainly high energy! Newton’s pensive photo at the end is so cute!

    Newton, you look so sweet lying there thinking of Cupcake. She’s your little sis. Ashton and Pierre, I’m sure it’s nice to have a break from a youngster running around. She sure is a cutie, though!

    I’m thinking you guys all like Cupcake but maybe not Ashton. She’s a little like me.

    Freedom and calm in the house comes with the realization that some kitty might be getting some treats elsewhere.
