	Gracie - Cat - March 10, 2000
		We saw Gracie only sporadically, although we left food for her daily, until she had her next litter of kittens and brought them to us in late spring, 1999.
		Since we live in an area that has had several hurricanes in recent years, we were concerned about the kittens' safety if a hurricane occurred while they were so small.
		I caught all but one, but as the storm winds began to blow and the rain began, Gracie sat down next to this kitten and led her to the garage.
