Well, the kittens are still a little young to be very cooperative when we take pictures (they want to look at everything except the camera) but we stuck to it and are proud to present the First Lady Litter…. Bess (Truman) Δ Abigail (Adams) Δ Ladybird (Johnson) Δ Tipper (Gore — should have been First …

It’s amazing how big those kittens get after a few days. They look like plump little furry sausages. Maybe we’ll name the Bratwurst, Kielbasa, Andouille, Knackwurst, and Chorizo. Okay, maybe not.We have a rule about not naming kittens after food, no matter how tasty they look.

Maybelline gave birth to five big kittens on Tuesday morning! They quickly proved to be more mobile than the usual litter. One of them crawled out of the nest within minutes and we had to put up the barrier. These beasties were a little late, so they must have used the extra gestation time productively… …

Time to get some pictures of the Patootie-Pumpkin litter before they go to their new homes! This sounds like an easy enough thing, but there is a certain technique, you see.

Now that the kittens eyes are open and they are moving around more, they’re graduating from being eating and sleeping machines to showing their individual personalities. While it’s too early to say exactly how they’ll turn out, it’s fun to guess. “I only look guilty because you startled me. I wasn’t up to anything, really.” …

…they’re sleeping! We took a few pictures of the kittens while Pootie was eating her dinner. Of course she had to rush back and defend them from our evil camera, but we managed to get a few good shots anyway. Brothers and sisters also make good headrests. It’s waaaaay to early to say whether any …

Tootie give birth two three lovely little kittens on Monday night. This is her first litter and she is turning out to be a great mother. She’s very protective and looks very contented when she’s feeding them. It’s already apparent that the little ones have inherited the snuggling gene…

We took Patootie down to the vet today to get her pre-delivery x-ray. We do this as a precaution so we know how many kittens to expect on the Big Day. It looks like we’re expecting five! (The big dark thing at the top is poop, not a kitten). Seven days to go…

I am NOT overweight. I did NOT swallow a basketball. I am NOT gassy. Well, okay, maybe a little gassy. But that’s NOT why I look like this. I’m full of kittens!
