Vervain Laurelin

Nina's kittens are 14 weeks old today and are total hooligans - we get woken up between 5 and 6 every morning when all 6 of them realise that they're hungry,  but there's no food available so they decide to visit the litter trays instead.  Usually the one nearest to me :(

They are all now spoken for and I finally made my decision as to which of the chocolate torties to keep.  She will be named Vervain Laurelin, the name I was allowed to have back from GCCF when I lost Pebbles to a severe heart defect back in 2004.  Laurelin was the Golden Tree of Valinor,  poisoned and killed by Ungoliant, then watered by the tears of Nienna, thus enabling her to produce her final fruit,  which became the Sun.   Seems somehow appropriate...........
