So I'm pretty sure that the little kitten in the West Village pet shop window which was an off-orange color was actually dead, as the Asha-resembling (Asha pissed on my phone case the other day) baby kittens (their ears apparently stay the same size their whole lives, or something disproportionately cute like that) were doing their best to what looked like nursing but really was more like gnawing, now of course perhaps the kitty cat was asleep, but asleep kittens (I've watched Asha carefully) tend to breathe and twitch spastically when touched or gnawed at.
