I've progressed a little on painting and modelling... in particular, took that half-arsed would-be Raven Knight and went around parts-swapping. Now it needs little but some Green Stuff additions. I intend him to go with my "Veteran Squad", so he'll be wielding a banner (from Brettonian Knights set), even though there are no rules allowing Bikers to equip these... who cares, the model will still be cool looking.
But I can hardly focus on the hobby, when recent four weeks carried with them a streak of dying cats. I just keep breaking up over that.
First one of Linda's kittens, a pretty black-and-white female (much like her mother), got ran over by a car. One of the worst cases I saw, there was little left of her to bury.
Just next day... Linda herself is gone and we find her killed by a car on the very same spot. People who saw what happened say she was just sitting there and wailing.
A mere few days after, one of the two "mice" (a pair of very small mackerel-patterned kittens, apparently found abandoned by one of our kitties) has - just like that - died.
Then one of the "fatlings", the only male kitten among the triplets. He was the weakest in the bunch, but the three were far larger and stronger then most older kittens, so it was totally unexpected.
The same day, one of the blacks also died, but this one was more or less expected to happen - the kittens are going through some weird flu-like infection, and it also causes their eyelids to glue together with pus, effectively rendering them temporarily blinded. This one had it quite bad, and refused to eat anything, growing weaker and weaker.
The last - and most recent - death was one of the pretty red mackerel kittens, which apparently has climbed up one of the trees in the garden and fell down.
To make things even worse, Tigra (one of the older generation) keeps disappearing for many days at a time. We've nearly considered her dead twice already, and both times she suddenly shown up like nothing happened.
