Kewl. I confess, feline behavior fascinates me (which is why I actually list cats as one of my hobbies under interests), but I also admit I have a problem, so there it is. Honestly, I only really notice when people actively dislike cats and assume most people on this board are dog people or neutral.
I did the orphan kitten routine more than once, doesn't always take a bad mom. I had one cat that had a rough delivery of a litter of 10 (yes, 10). Three were stillborn, one was an utter freak that got stuck coming out, must have torn her and she came down with an infection almost immediately. I ended up with a litter of 7 three day old kittens on my hands. Got 5 of them to adulthood. Boy did I learn a lot about kitten development though.
Fraid I'm a bit neutral on the Noah's ark story since the
Babylonians told it first in the tales of Gilgamesh
