On becoming a kitten

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.”

“Who am I? Why am I here?” If this one is a boy maybe we should call him Admiral Stockwell.

“I may look forlorn, but just turn your back and I’ll return to my climbing experiments.”

When they’re not eating…

…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 of these little ones would make good show cats.  But that doesn’t stop us from guessing…

Your tail is like a security blanket to me.

I don’t have a name yet, but a have a distinctive pattern on my nose!

A full belly and sacked out. Seems like they have the Maine Coon way of life figured out already.

All together now…. Awwwwww

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…

The Inside Story

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’m full of kittens

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!

Hello!

This is Pippi, one of the girls from the Nutmeg-Syrano litter. She has joined the family as one of our breeding females (when she’s old enough and we’ve given her that talk about the birds and the bees, the sires and the dams, etc.). In the meantime, we get to enjoy the kitten cuteness.

She’s “Pippi” because her white markings on her front legs look like long stockings… Pippi Longstockings, get it? Well, one of the stockings is shorter than the other, so one of us suggested naming her Slouchy, but that was quickly vetoed.
