The fearful week (and four days) is done
Noses have weathered all attacks, the prize we sought is won
The smell is gone, the air is clear, and mama is exalting
While follow foods that are not tainted, the odor gone a faring
But heart, oh heart,
The grief that I have taken
While in the barn the kittens whine
Ousted from inside
Oh, kitchen, my kitchen, I am glad to have you back sir
Rise up, for you the cats evicted, for you the mom rejoicing
***to make things perfectly clear.....eleven days ago, Liz was given three cute (well two cute and one Hellcat) kittens by a dear friend of the family. They are more teen aged cats than kittens and for those long and miserable days they have lived in dog crates in my kitchen. Let me tell you, three cats in the kitchen smell...well, they smell real, real bad. No matter how often their little boxes are cleaned. Today they were exiled to their new home in the horse barn and I am a very happy camper. Very happy. Very, very happy.
However, Liz is not happy and thinks that I am mean as a box of rattlesnakes left on a hot sidewalk too long. Even so, it is nice to be able to breathe again.
(They only got to stay in as long as they did because the Hellcat one bit our friend and we needed to make sure she didn't have rabies.)
HT to Walt Whitman, who said it so much better.

That's really funny! Thanks for providing the link, for I had forgotten the lines. Again, you have created an amusing post out of a situation that obviously was far from entertaining for you.
Thank you for letting my babies be inside tonight! It is so nasty out there!
I'm sure Walt Whitman would sympathize if his kitchen were invaded by felines from hell.
I am no longer a cat person... I much prefer dogs and fish.
NW, the poem, which I hadn't heard since high school just came to me as I was getting ready to whine about the kittens
Paints...hmmmm....they seem to be back in the kitchen this morning...
Jan, they are cute, but wow, a room full of skunks couldn't be any worse
