Speaking of cats...
Charles and John, the owners of Cafe Zeus, were telling us that the kittens of Miss Kitty, who were born just below the steps leading from the restaurant to the patio, decided to take their first steps out into the world right before Charles and John had to head off for the Celebrity Chef's Brunch Sunday. Miss Kitty was a little freaked, of course, but the kittens all did fine, and cozied up to John like he was their long lost daddy.
When the kittens are all weaned, Miss Kitty and the kittens are all heading to the vets. While they're a safeguard against vermin (and there are absolutely no mice or roaches at Cafe Zeus), it's the most responsible way to care for the little ones.
