Since i was very little, i was really fond of kittens. I really want to have my own kitten but my mum said it would litter up our house. But that didn't stop me! If we went to the library, I would always get a book about looking after cats so that hopefully when i am old enough i can have my own. At my great-grandmother's house, there's a lot of stray cats so when i visit her i always look after 1. Here are some facts and pictures of kittens and cats:
