When you asked me that, I had to go look. All I can say is, incredible. It hurts your heart at first, but then you realize the cat isn’t unhappy and moping....he’s enjoying life!

This reminds of a Titanic story that was posted here last April about the animals on board the ship.

Before the Titanic set sail, sailors watched as a mama cat took her kittens off of the ship one by one right before Titanic set sail, returning on board to carry each kitty down a ramps.

Everyone watching this thought it was so cute — except the sailors who said this was a VERY bad omen...I think If I’d seen that, I would have disembarked too. Animals have a strange sense of foreboding sometimes...

“Sailors smuggling things aboard ship is a long grand tradition.”

Yeah, we did smuggle things onto the ship, but not...cats.

The kittens learned a lot from those sailors.

It’s really nice that all the kittehs got placed in good homes.

I’m guessing the third kitten was camera shy? Or were there two identical tabbies?

Oh well, they’re too cute for it to matter... [smiles]
