Well, the guys went up on the roof, no kittens there. They thought I
was slightly nuts, but at least they did what I asked. Said they'd
let us know if they find them outside anyplace. The mother is always
hanging around one particular area outside, so I am wondering where in
the world they could be if not inside someone's place? We have a lot
of shrubbery but I have yet to see the litter. Oh well!
