As a 10 year-old, I had the honor of helping our cat give birth to 5 beautiful kittens.

Some white like her - some gray, like (we presume) the dad. One - "Fluffy" - seemed to be a combination the two; he became my favorite.

Sadly, we lived in an apartment complex that didn't allow them - and within a few months a malicious neighbor ratted on us, and we were forced to relinquish them.

I don't think I received anything karmically for it (au contraire). But I do hope that when I leave this rotten world, I might see them again.
