Some of the shelter kittens get a little mischievous. Anything they can reach through the bars of the kitten cage is fair game and will be chewed within an inch of its existence by some kittens. |

Someone left a note wanting to know where Sasha's paperwork is; i'll give you three guesses and the first two don't count.
