New babies

My mom and I are currently caring for 4 2-week-old kittens from the farm. Their mommy got hit and I couldn't just stand by and watch them slowly starve to death. So, I Mom took them in and I've been helping her feed and care for them.

Last night, I got the bright idea of sticking a stuffed cat in with them to help settle them down. Mom said that it worked like a charm. She said it's the fastest she'd seen them calm down/go to sleep since we brought them there the night before!

We're only fostering them for 3-6 weeks, until they're able to eat hard cat food. Once they're on that, they'll be going back to the farm. They're so stinking cute, though, so it's going to be hard to let them go! But, Mom doesn't need 4 more cats (on top of her current 5), so it's gonna have to happen, lol!
