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 …

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 …

Fiona gave birth to six squeaky kittens on Tuesday, January 11th. It was a couple of days earlier than expected, but they were also all a little bigger than normal. Lucky Strike, the father, was not surprised. “Mrrph!”* he said, “They got it from me. I’m never late for anything. Especially dinner.” Fiona, as usual, …

They are finally finished with that phase where they rub their butts on the floor and leave skidmarks everywhere.

Jackie’s kittens are starting to get a little more mobile. We are fairly sure that there are three boys and two girls, but we’re going to wait a little longer to say which is which and make sure we have it right. It’s all a little fuzzy. Ha! Meanwhile, we took the kittens out of …

Here are Jackie Blue’s kittens all lined up in a row. They do this on their own (around here was call it the “Kitten Cluster”). Kittens can’t regulate their body temperature on their own for about three weeks, so they instinctively huddle together, or next to Mom. Jackie’s warm milk helps, too (and we have a …
