I made the right choice about Tudor, last night

When I saw his mother had his sisters tucked with her beneath the Passion Flower plant, I thought here we go again! So I brought him inside, scooped up Dylan to keep him company and gave them a good meal.

But I kept checking and just before dark I saw his sisters bumbling back to the shelter. I decided to put Tudor in the shelter with them and return Dylan to his mom. She's VERY understanding. I did keep checking and listening until after dark. Tudor has a very loud and distinctive 'chirp' so if he was outside of the shelter, I'd hear him.

This morning I had to do a quick trip to the store and was pretty sure I head Tudor, singing away. When I returned and brought out the food, guess who came running up to me - the sweetest kitten on the planet! And was he HUNGRY. Well, all of the kittens were.

So I feel better about the mom. I did see her nursing him earlier in the day. I just get nervous when he isn't included with his sisters.

I'll keep a close eye on the situation.

I'm very protective of that little boy. I might start weighing him every day so I can be sure he's getting enough to eat. I'm feeding him so if his mom is also nursing him, he should be fine.

I should teach it to Tudor! It seems he has that Welsh love of singing. Well, the kitten version, anyway.

Sometimes the negativity seems overwhelming and I just need a time out to reset.
These are tumultuous, chaotic, and historic times we are living through.

I believe we will come through this with the opportunity to build a better world, Tikkun Olam. Liberty and Justice, Freedom and Equality for everyone on this blue marble circling the sun.

This Louis Armstrong video encourages me to smile, take a deep breath, roll up my sleeves, and help manifest the world I want to live in. You, too, I’m thinking, Walleye.
