I now have morning office hours to clean kitten eyes [View all]

Tegan was double closed and Bronwyn had straw stuck to her face. The rest of the kittens are fine. Mom has just given up on trying to intimidate me when I pick them up, although I do hear some mild hissing.

So I'm headed to a locally owned pet supply store to see if they have anything that might help. They are great when it comes to making suggestions.

So, obviously the mom is bringing the girls back, every morning, and then takes them back to wherever, at dusk. I might move the camera to overlook the feeding area so I can figure out in which direction she heads. The kittens remain very comfortable with me and sometimes even bumble to me when I call them.

Wish me luck with their eye issue and that they take shelter when the rain comes. I have my raincoat at the ready.
