We now have four kittens

Sonya just had two more kittens so we're up to a four kitten count. One

change as they dry off and collect their colors. I'm going to let Sonya
dry them off, love on them a lot, and then get pictures of them to post.
They're SO cute.

Well we're at five now. There was a sixth one, but it was still born
and could not be revived. Rob and Mike are pretty sure that she doesn't
have any more in her. Her cat bed is currently in the washer being cleaned.

We have tentatively named the little black and gray tiger striped with
white underbelly and paws, Eric(a). I have tried to figure out if they
are male or female, but their bottoms all look alike to me. I'm still
waiting until mom and babies bond more before going for individual
pictures.

One of them is a little holstein and another looks sorta like black
building blocks with white grout, at least to me. They're just way too
cute. Sonya is really good about letting us touch the babies, but one
can see that it is mainly manners and that she would prefer if we leave
them alone. So I've told us all to leave them alone. Wish them all luck.

Too bad about the stillborn one, but now there's a brand-new little
kitty-angel up there. And it really looks like Sonya will be a wonderful
mother for her babies. Wishing them all a good life!

Awww. Poor little bitty!

Oh, I can't wait to see the pictures!

Good luck keeping your hands off kittens!!! ;

Congratulations to you and Sonya!!

Sorry that one was stillborn, but that's part of the cycle of life.
Have you announced the new arrivals to the rest of the cats? Pine Cone
must be wondering if he's got new swabbies

Congratulations, grand-meow!

If you have to use a flash please know that I for one would be glad to
wait
for the pics until the light good enough that there's no need to
frighten
those precious newborns.

Aren't kittens blind for their first few days? You might
scare the mother with a flash-bulb, but I doubt the kittens
would notice until their eyes begin to open.

They're not blind, they just don't hve their eyes open. A bright light like
a flash from a camera can be seen through closed eyes.

Wow, yeah, I would think that was all. So sorry about the little still born,
but that is an awful lot of kittens to look after and nature knew best. Good
heavens, you will be lucky to identify sex at 8 weeks let alone anytime
soon. It's pretty hard. Glad Sonya seems OK. Good call on not touching them
much for now. Whew!!

Swoon thud
Been watching all news and updates. Bless the little girl for knowing by
instinct how to care for her kittens. Awww.
Oh, btw, do not worry if Sonya doesn't want to eat tomorrow or even the next
day. She has eaten all the placentas, which is nature's way to feed her so
she can stay with her babies. Ain't Mother Nature just wonderful?
