# Kittens Are Born

The film follows mother cat "Bootie" from her pregnancy through labor and the birth of three kittens. Emphasizes the birth process and the postnatal care. We recommend lowering the "doo-doo" folky soundtrack to better enjoy this remarkable film. Of Bootie, Claire Johnston, daughter of filmmaker Hugh & Suzanne Johnston says, "She was a devoted mother of her kittens, the ones that were filmed, and of the ones that came later."
