John doesn't know why he's not allowed in Sherlock's room. The door is always closed, and Sherlock is careful to make his exits and entrances very quickly indeed. There have been clandestine visits between Mrs Hudson and Sherlock, when they think John isn't watching, and Mrs Hudson is always beaming when she leaves. John very much thinks he doesn't want to know

Sherlock kneels down and is obviously telling the girl to calm down and be careful with the kitten, and her mum stands behind her as she solemnly reaches out a hand to pet the silky-soft head. After a few moments, the kitten reaches a paw out to her, and Sherlock gently places the kitten in the little girl's arms, pride and concern on his face

"So, why didn't I get to know about them?" John persists. Sherlock drops his gaze, looking even guiltier than before. "I...didn't want you to become attached. It's difficult, sometimes, for people to let go of kittens that they've raised, and I wasn't certain if you could handle endlessly giving up kittens. I know I'm...unusual in that regard."
"All right, I suppose that makes sense," John sighs, rubbing a hand through his hair. "So...are there any left, or was that the last of this bunch?" he asks, feeling slightly hopeful.
Smiling, Sherlock beckons. "There are still three, and when I went in to get Prospero they were highly intent on the squeaky mouse."
three months later"I don't understand why Mrs Hudson isn't taking on this role," Mycroft says, looking uncomfortable as a black-and-white kitten batted his trouser leg. His office has suddenly developed an invasion of kittens, and John turns from setting up the litterbox to grin at him

Our smallest cat can still achieve something close to this speed, even though she's almost 2&1/2 now. Of course, Itteh Bitteh Kitteh is probably 6 lbs, tops, so...

Wow, congratulations on totally making it believable that Sherlock keeps kittens! (I am the anon who commented earlier, imagining Sherlock tipping a box of kittens out the window. But I totally buy this! It's so cute!!)

Glad you like! ^_^ I wish I could foster, but I've got 3 already and the eldest is *still* not keen on the younger girls, so...*shrugs* Plus I'm currently going through chemo, so I doubt I could keep up with them ATM.

I tell you though, fostering kittens without their mother is a messy (smelly!) business!
