AWWWWWW! Concatulations to every Shirk catslave and many happy purr-turns
of the day to Sonya and her babies! Can't wait to hear more and see piccies! Ya'll done good! Christine "Tanada" wrote in message k.net...

They're SO cute. Pam S. 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. Pam S. proud grand-meow |

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. Having your eyes closed is *not* the same thing as being blind. I'm sure you yourself see/feel light even through closed eyelids. And a bright light like a camera flash would certainly startle the little kitties and might even hurt their eyes. -- Christine in Vantaa, Finland christal63 (at) gmail (dot) com photos: http://photos.yahoo.com/christal63 photos: http://community.webshots.com/user/chkr63 |

[[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.]] A heartily-purred "Welcome!" to our five newest kitty nieces/nephews. And a sorrowful wish of "Godspeed" to our little one whose journey to the Bridge began even before it was born. I hope that somehow, somewhere, it sensed all the prayers, purrs, and good thoughts being sent in its direction and that of its siblings. I know that you'll take pics of Sonya and family when the time is right, but BOY am I ever looking forward to that time. ) Donna, Captain, and Stanley P.S. from Captain and Stanley: Hi, teeny kitties! A good way to get hugs and pettins is to approach your hoomin who's sitting on the couch, plant your front paws on his or her ribs, and purr in his or her face. It never fails to work. :3 |

How lovely, kittens are so sweet. As a breeder of many years, I would
advise you to briefly handle each kitten daily, a short check of eyes, umbilicus etc; to make sure all is OK. provided the mother does not object. The kittens will become used to the smell of humans and not be afraid. Marie from OZ. "Christina Websell" wrote in message ... 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? Tweed "Tanada" wrote in message k.net...

Congrats on your five beautiful baby bitties and condolences on your
lost little one. I do not know how you will ever give them up when the time comes...enjoy them, they only stay itty-bitty for an itty bitty bit. --Fil Tanada wrote: Sonya just had two more kittens so we're up to a four kitten count.
