Ember.js Bummer! You need to use 'each' within the <ul> element to output <li> elements with each kitten's name.

I'm going cross eyed from looking at this what am I missing?

js/app.js
AnimalShelter = Ember.Application.create();

AnimalShelter.Router.map(function() {
  this.resource('kittens', {path: '/'});
});

var kittens = [
  {id: '1', name: 'Meowzer'},
  {id: '2', name: 'Squeaky'},
  {id: '3', name: 'Fluffy'}
]

AnimalShelter.KittensRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
  model: function() {
    return kittens;
  }
});
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <title>Animal Shelter</title>
</head>
<body>
  <script src="js/libs/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>
  <script src="js/libs/handlebars-v1.3.0.js"></script>
  <script src="js/libs/ember-1.8.1.js"></script>
  <script src="js/app.js"></script>

  <script type="text/x-handlebars" id="kittens">
    <h1>Kittens</h1>
    <p>Here is a list of all of our kittens:</p>
    <ul>
      {{#each}}
        <li>{{kittens}}</li>
      {{/each}}

    </ul>
  </script>

</body>
</html>

Hi Christian,

Instead of kittens, you'll want to write in name. The each loop needs to cycle for each kitten, and you'll use the name key to accomplish that.

    <ul>
      {{#each}}
        <li>{{name}}</li>
      {{/each}}
    </ul>

Hope this helps!
