At Last…. literally

Maybelline gave birth to four lovely kittens on Sunday afternoon.  Just like their mother they are noisy little things, squeaking when she isn’t in the nest or making loud slurpy nursing noises when she is.

This is a final litter for Maybelline and Noreaster before they retire from active duty, so we will be sure to have some fun temporary names for the kittens around that theme.  The wheels in our brains are turning! Finale, Omega, Finito… we’re thinking.

All kittens in this litter have been reserved!

Look at that face!

Look at that face!

As predicted there was a 5th kitten. Unfortunately it was underweight and stillborn. Even though we know that it is normal for this to happen on occasion it still makes us sad.

We were correct, on average!

Marie predicted that Maybelline has four kittens in her.  I predicted six.  The X-Ray shows five. We’ll know for sure when they pop out later this week!

Just get these things out of me. I’m tired of you making jokes about how wide I am.

This is the last litter for Maybelline and Noreaster before they move on to a happy retirement.

The next litter and updates…

Maybelline may be pregnant. If so, we expect her litter to pop out mid-December.

Also, we’re using this quiet time between litters do some website software updates.  This may make the site look strange (or completely break it, in which case you aren’t reading this).  We’ll get things back to normal as soon as we can.

She’s the one (who’s (not) available)

UPDATE:  AFK has left for her new home!

Yes, we have on kitten available… AFK (that’s what we call her).  She’ll be ready to go to her home in the next week or so.  If you’re interested, please fill out our placement application and we’ll get back to you.

In answer to your questions:

  1. Yes, she has legs, that’s just how she sits sometimes.
  2. Yes, she’ll grow into those ears.  They all go through that “all ears” phase!
  3. No, there’s nothing wrong with her. Why no one has yet snatched up a kitten as cute as her yet is a mystery to us.

Red boys still available (not)

The following kittens are still available. Both are old enough to go to their new homes now.  They are sweet, affectionate guys and ready for love. Unfortunately, life stuff happened to the folks who planned to adopt them so they’ve opted to wait for a future litter.  What that means for you is, hey, kittens available!  If you’re interested, please fill out our placement application and we’ll get back to you.

Update: Both boys have been placed!

Cal (boy) – reserved

Bennett (boy) reserved

OMG! BRB! GTG! AFK! LOL!

When Ashley’s kittens started getting bigger, the pale boy grew really fast. “OMG! His head is enormous!” Yes, I really said that… and then we had naming theme for this litter. And so, here they are!

OMG – boy – reservered

 

BRB – girl – reserved

 

GTG – girl – reserved

 

AFK – girl – available

 

LOL – boy – reserved

Random Acts of Cuteness

We took some time to take some pictures of Ashley’s litter. Needless to say they weren’t entirely cooperative, so here is a selection of what we were able to get. Three kittens from this litter are available!

Hello and where’s the food?

Ashley gave birth to five very hungry kittens this morning. She did very well for her first time and seems to be taking to motherhood well.

The pale kitten on the end is a rare albino Maine Coon, said to have been prized as good luck totems by the ancient Vikings who colonized North America.  Okay, I made that up.  The kitten is likely a red silver. No doubt the other kittens in the litter will tease it and tell it that it was adopted, but really it’s just genetics.

The New Math

Ashley and Lucky Strike are expecting five kittens around August 7th.  That’s what we think the X-ray says, at least! Are we right? Count the skulls or count the spines, whichever method you prefer!

Like a rock

Cue the Bob Seger music…

Like a rock; I was cute as I could be.
Like a rock; Does my mom have milk for me?
Like a rock; Will I learn to poop and pee?
Like a rock.

Okay, not my best effort. Anyway, we named Georgette’s litter after rocks because it fit their colors. Let me introduce…

Obsidian (boy)


Onyx (boy)


Mica (girl)


Granite (boy)



All kittens in this litter are reserved.
