kitten, except for its black tail, in her lap and stroked it.

      “Yes. She must be the mama. Maybe I can ask around the neighborhood to see who owns the cat.” Sarah examined a white, brown and black kitten.

      Liam took a place across from Sarah, his nieces flanking her. “Why would she leave them? They don’t look more than seven or eight weeks old.” A brown and black kitten climbed onto his legs.

      “She wouldn’t unless they somehow got away from her or...” Her forehead furrowed.

      “Or what, Sarah?” Madison asked.

      “Something happened to her. These babies look well fed and cared for. They haven’t been on their own for long.”

      Katie lifted the last kitten, white with brown markings, and put it in her lap. She looked right at Liam. “Could we take care of them until she comes back?”

      Liam had no idea how to take care of cats, let alone kittens. Growing up all he’d had were dogs. “If we took them home, the mama wouldn’t know where they were.”

      “Oh, you’re right.” Katie frowned, petting both kittens in her lap. Then suddenly her eyes brightened. “We can make posters to find their owner and mama.” She glanced at Madison. “We’re good at that.”

      “That’s a great idea. Your poster led me to Gabe.” Sarah looked around. “Where is he?”

      “Your mama took him inside when she saw the kittens. She told us to get you. She was sneezing. Is she sick?” Madison cradled her kitten against her chest.

      The white, brown and black one began climbing all over Sarah. “She’s allergic to cats but mostly the pollen in the air. She can’t be around outside long in the spring.”

      “That’s sad.” Katie said while both of her kittens began playing in her lap. She giggled. “Then we have to take them.”

      Those words struck panic in Liam. He hadn’t figured out how to raise two girls, let alone five kittens.

      Sarah caught his gaze and smiled. “They should stay here. I can make a place in the shed for them. You two can help me this afternoon.”

      A scowl descended on Madison’s face as she set her squirming kitten on the ground. “What about Gabe?”

      “Gabe is usually great with other animals. We’ll figure it out. What I’ll need from you two are some posters. What do you say?”

      “Uncle Liam, will you help us like you did last time?” Katie asked.

      He could do this. “We’ll start after dinner tonight, and then after school tomorrow we can finish them and put them up.”

      “I can help, too. Monday is my day off. Until then we can clean the shed and make it safe for them—” Sarah’s eyes gleamed “—while your uncle goes home. I’m looking forward to his dinner tonight.”

      The girls hopped to their feet as Liam stood and offered Sarah his hand. “Are you sure you don’t need my help?”

      She stepped closer while the girls corralled the kittens. “Yes. I know an exhausted man when I see him. Everyone needs a break once in a while. Besides, I don’t have men cooking dinner for me too often. Go. We’re gonna be busy this afternoon, and you’ll only get in the way.”
