Nine little kittens, each with nine lives! It's a surprise how each of them thrives. Two nearly drowned in the pool next door: one caught between an old attic floor. Two were trapped in a box overnight; two got abscesses in a catfight. Another fell down off a high roof; the last just missed a horse's huge hoof. More lives to go! This legend's foolproof!
