A little early, but just as cute

Four!

Ashley gave birth to four beautiful kittens on Sunday afternoon, a few days earlier than expected.  Unfortunately she had to have surgery to take out the last two that didn’t survive. One of the horns of her uterus was damaged and had to be removed. Or, as the vet said, Ashley is now a “Unihorn.” …

Meeting in the middle… of her belly!

One of us looked at Ashley’s big belly and said, “I predict there are seven kittens in there.” The other said, “Oh, I think there are five.” Of course, that means there are six! Pictures of actual kittens and not just kitten skeletons next week when they pop out! Four of these kittens are reserved.

One kitten, many names

We gave Hipster his temporary name because of his little chin beard. However, we rarely call any cat by their actual name, just to jeep it confusing for ourselves. Therefore, as Hipster began exploring his room he became Magellan… and then Gellin’ Like Magellan… and then Melon… and then Melonhead. Yeah, we’re really mature around …

Portraits of a kitten in black and white

When you’re a single kitten you get a lot of attention. For Hipster that also means lots of pictures. So here they are, presented in a semi-artistic style. Oh, and Hipster is already reserved.

Awwwww

Misty has mostly stopped growling at us when we get near the kitten, so we were able to get a picture! Misty’s baby is doing well and growing fast.  He’s surprisingly mobile for a newborn. Misty didn’t like her nest and kept moving him under the bed so we had to them to the “kitten room” next …

Enormously Gigantic Colossal Leap Kitten

Misty did end up needing a C-section, but she and the kitten came through it just fine. Misty was at least considerate enough to go into labor during the day so our regular vet was able to take care of things. They’re home how and the kitten (we think it’s a boy) is feeding like …

One is the Loneliest Number

It looks like Black Mist’s first litter is going to be a small one. Just one (very large) kitten. So small numerically, but maybe not small in size. Sometimes a girl’s first litter is small. Misty also took some time to warm up to Rigel, so maybe by the time they… consummated their relationship it was late …

(Not So) Scary Monsters

It’s the David Bowie litter! The kids are growing fast and very active. They always run up to greet us, and not just because we might be bringing food. They’re just curious little squeakers! Anyway, here they are! All kittens in this litter are reserved.

Pictures of mobile potatoes

The Bowie litter is growing like gangbusters. A few weeks ago one could fit into the palm of your hand and now they’re each the size of your hand (unless you have really big hands). The kittens are definitely in what we call “mobile potato” stage. We have a completely unscientific list of growth stages for …

Holy mackerel!

Kittens instinctively cluster together for warmth, which inevitably makes for a very cute picture. So, here is the kitten cluster picture for the Bowie litter! The kittens are growing fast and Fiona is being very attentive, as always. Several of these kittens have a beautiful mackerel pattern.  It’s going to be very interesting to see …
