This YouTube video will make your heart melt! This mama cat comforts her baby in the most adorable way possible.

When you see the kitten begin to jerk around in its sleep, you will recognize that familiar feeling of having a nightmare. Before the kitten wakes up in fear, though, mom comes to the rescue for the adorable little fur ball!

Grace did something really stupid today, She stuck Her left front paw into a moth trap, yep I had to catch Her and pull Her paw out of the adhesive the trap uses, She left some fur behind and I suspect some skin from Her pads, She'll be ok, the trap I had to tape back together, I had it where the moths would see it, I doubt She'll do that again. Sorry it did not cross My mind to snap a pic, I was more interested in helping Her get free from the trap, but then Grace makes an ugly looking moth.

Hope that Grace's little paw is doing OK.
Or rather, her BIG paw.

Good to hear that her little 'misstep' is not causing her any grief.
Kitty paws are very sensitive things, and I was a bit worried when you posted about her possibly having torn some skin off of her pads.

Meow.

Well that did it, the last storm knocked out the electrical outlet for Grace's automated litter box(in the 2nd bathroom, box is now disconnected for the moment, it was the only place I that I could put the box, if I relocate Her box to the Master bedroom, She'll start dragging Her claws all over the carpet, and I've been trying to break Her of that), I tried resetting the box outside, one of the two 20A breakers in question have water on them(I got a slight shock), the Master bathroom circuit is dry enough to light up, after I pressed the buttons on the outlet(in the master bath), the 2nd bathroom is still dead(no buttons to press on that outlet, not that it would do any good). What's wrong with the breakers? The anchor tab is broken off on both, plus the wiring shouldn't have more than 15A each(a 20A breaker was put in place by someone before I bought the place), an electrician is needed, one to replace the whole cover since that is letting water in, plus the 2 breakers need to be replaced, the breaker panel is mounted on the outside of the Westfield mobile home(a standard location I think) and I can't do that, I've got enough money to survive on, but that's it after putting out money on the car(tires and 4 struts/springs).

I'm just hoping this will dry out, as the wind came from the North while it was 'raining cats and dogs' today. Plus We had at least 4 instances of thunder. No I can't ask the park for Help, it's the weekend, plus I only rent the land, so that won't do, I need an electrician, but I can't hire one.

Jesus, Vic....
Don't be poking around in a wet breaker box. The next time you might not just get a 'slight shock'!!!

I know Mark, I've been shocked worse, so I just have to wait until it drys out, then try again, I do need a 2nd GFCI outlet in that 2nd bathroom, another thing to go on the repair list.

I have asthma(diagnosed when I was 18), I didn't believe that until recently, only makes Me cough when I drink something cool or the air temp is less than 76F. Which explains why I don't have a lot of energy, I literally don't have enough air, yawning.

Graces litterbox is back online, and the GFCI upgrade for the outlet is at the Home Depot, so before it rains again, I get to go there and pick that up.

I did get the outlet for Graces box upgraded to GFCI, though the lower screw hole partly broke off when the lower screw touched the plastic box, I was able to secure both top and bottom, the problem I had the most with was the fact that the wires had to be screwed down and not just inserted straight in, like on the old outlet. But the new outlet does work, though the Red/Green LED is obscured by the wallwart and the LED was Green before I plugged the wallwart in. Otherwise this was a piece of cake to do, but then I know My black from My white wires, everything is wired correctly by Me, since the litterbox led does light up.

I own My own mobile home(no mortgage, taxes are $205.30 a year)), I just rent the land under it(which went from $215.00 to $265.00 a month), but yeah I read a whole chapter of a book that explained how to do wiring once, I've put in whole circuits, changed out a double-ganged light switch, put in insulated gaskets behind wall plates, caulked, put in baby guards(keeps the drafts down), I just don't have as much endurance as I used to, sometimes motivation helps.
