Of birthdays and cats

Thanks to all who had a nice word for me over at Dalian Moon's spot.
It was a great birthday.
I had lunch with MSW, her kids and my younger daughter.
Visited with my friend at the nursing home.
Then MSW and I went to see "The Lake House." It doesn't make a bit of sense, but it is a very well done romantic movie. Just forget about logic!
Thai food for dinner, the wandered around Home Depot.

Now to the cats.
MSW and I have had 2 cats here for a couple of years. First hers - a little girl about 6 or 7, Abby. Then Lina, Juliet's cat came when it was no longer practical for her to handle a newborn and an older cat.
As you may know, Lina passed away suddenly almost 2 months ago.
At first, we were not going to get another cat, but Abby was sooo depressed that we decided to get a kitten that Abby could mother and play with. That was about 3 weeks ago.
So, anyway, that has been going pretty well. Lots of playing and chasing.
Well, today, I came home to find the little one (Maddy) "nusing" on Abby! It went on at least a half hour. Quite intense. Abby seemed extremely content. We are not sure yet if she is lactating or if she will with this continued stimulation. I've read this kind of stuff in the newpaper and all, but had never seen a non-mother do it first hand. Maddy is about 13 weeks old now
So, there you are Juliet. I have posted in my blog!!
