My gut tells me someone is about to back out of taking one of the kittens

She was the first to ask for one - specifically for Squeaky. I could be wrong, but she wants to 'give me a call', tomorrow afternoon. She actually lives in Chicago but is here, visiting, every few weeks. She's coming back next week so that's why i suspect the call is not good news, for me.

I might call my brother and see if he knows what's up.

She's not keen to 'bond' with the kittens but she also isn't showing any sort of aggression. She will hang out in the same room with them, kind of watching them without acting like she's watching them.

Hopefully I can find homes for at least two of them. If I end up with two, I have a small office I can easily turn into a cat room.
