I got to see Sally have kittens! It was awesome! I helped one of them take his first gulp of air by squeezing the corners of his mouth, and he blew a big bubble out of his nose. She had 5 of them, all gray tigers. Then Clyde & Jack, the guy cats, caught a baby rabbit and we brought it inside. I've never held a wild rabbit before. What an active night this has been!

The book was beautiful; it looked just like wood with leaves carved in it, and someone had written in it with gorgeous Edwardian penmanship . . . and it was printed in 1892! I sure wish it wasn't $20.

My favorite thing about today was helping our cat Jack chase a moth by holding him up in the air and moving him around. He almost caught it, but then it landed on his nose and he didn't seem to know how to get it off. He didn't try to brush it off with his paw or anything, he just let it stay there.
