[Al sounds tired but vaguely happy when he says it. He shrugs. Kitty, meanwhile, flops on her back and presents different body parts for petting, mostly her stomach, sides, neck and shoulders.]
It was my first fall here and it was starting to get cold out. It was raining and I found a box of kittens, crying. They were still young enough to be nursing. I waited and the mother didn't come back, so I took them to a friend's house. He was used to raising cats.
He showed me how to feed them, and I hand-raised them. The others all quickly found homes, but- she was special.
