As promised, here is a picture of my mom's new kitties, Sophie and Sasha. (More pictures are here.)

Right now they're wandering around my grandpa's bedroom meeting Shannon for the first time. It's going well, although Shannon emits faint rumbles whenever one of the kits wanders too close. She's a crotchety old dog, but sweet. I should get a picture or two of her to put up here before I leave.
