This last tuesday a precious gift was delivered to our nursery in one of our regular plant delivers from Fredriks. A newborn grey tabby kitten was found by Jeff in an impatien hanging basket still on the delivery rack. This newly arrived fuzzy grey being still had his/her umbilical cord attached and had survived a 20+ mile journey in a cold delivery truck. He/she could fit into one hand and had not yet opened her/his eyes.
He/she was adopted into the Aldenlane family and was taken home by Jeff the first night. Anne has become her/his adopted mother and brings him/her to work every day. She/he has grown considerably and nurses from his/her bottle constantly. He/she definately has a strong will to survive, eating up everyones affection. Just today he/she opened his/her eyes for the first time.
Anne has still not found a name for him/her yet and many of us around here have come up with our own pet names for him/her.I personally call her/him 'little Imp' (short for the impatiens he/she was found in).
