A blessed event

Carlotta's kittens have arrived -- five adorable pink-nosed, silk-eared bundles of fur. But what a responsibility for the five male cats in the Club of Mysteries! It's their job not only to protect the kittens from the dangers of the world -- like the tough river rats and even tougher Steak Knife and his Over-the-Hill gang (and his collection of the tails of his victims) -- but also to teach them the skills every cat needs to survive. And hardest of all, find them good homes before they end up at the dreaded pound. The Club of Mysteries gang has a hard enough time figuring out the ways of the world for themselves -- how can they raise a littler of helpless kittens?
