Well protected kittens: “Oakley,” a golden Lab owned by Derek Kennedy of Caldwell, checks out kittens born not only in his pen, but on his bed. When a pal of Oakley’s, who just happens to be a cat named “Sissy,” had her kittens, she found a good place for them. No kittens are better cared for. Just how the two got to be friends is not known.
