Mourning
This tragedy had a profound effect on Kitty. Her attitude shifted significantly in the days after giving birth. Sadness overcame her, and she spent her days moping about the home. It was clear that she wasn’t acting like herself. This was very distressing for Anne and Frank.
Kitty was having a tough time, while next door, Smoochie was getting ready to have her kittens. Being so young, she didn’t act like a typical mother after the birth of her pups. Despite her best efforts, she developed zero feelings for them. She wasn’t ready to take on all the obligations of parenting just yet.
