An Announcement

Hello, thank you for dropping in and thank you for your comments on my last post, especially the good wishes you sent.   You are very kind.  I've been very busy grandmothering this week and I'm just popping in here to let you know that Tom Kitten has a little sister who we are going to call Cottontail here, even though I know that a kitten can't have a rabbit for a sister and I really should have thought that one through when Tom Kitten was born.  I did suggest Cicely Parsley but that was laughed out of the window as everyone else said that nobody has ever heard of Cicely Parsley; I replied that fans of Miss Potter have heard of her but I was overruled and Cottontail it is, even though she doesn't have a tail (which, frankly, is a relief).  Mother and baby are both well, Tom Kitten is coping and the rest of us are on a cloud.
 

See you soon.
Love, Mrs Tiggywinkle x

    The name made me smile as I refer to my lot as Flopsy, Mopsy and Cottontail. X

  4. Many congratulations to all :-)

    If the Leporidae nomenclature does not sit comfortably with other members of the family, how about Sweet Cicely, which is how I've always known 'Cicely Parsley' to be called.
