Think of Lesley and Lil

Lesley is a dear, sweet, caring breeder of beautiful Siamese. She only lets her cat have a litter every year or two and she and the cat, Tigerlily or Lil, have a very close bond. Lil went into labour this morning. Things did not go well. Three kittens were born but then Lil took really poorly. She still has kittens inside her and she is being operated on by the Vet now.

Lesley is trying to feed three very tiny newborns. Her son, Tim, is especially close to Lil so he is upset too, as is his brother. Indeed, she is loved by the whole family. This is a heartbreaking time for them, so spare a thought for a drama that has no important World-impacting significance but which touches a very painful place deep inside.

Spare a thought or a prayer for them at this worrying time.

UPDATE:
Lil is home, purring, with two more babies, Thank God!
She has a family of five to bring up. She is a fabulous mother so Lesley can relax a bit now.
