We tried to get some good pictures, really! The kittens and Nutmeg had other ideas. For example, in the picture above that big blurry thing is Meg’s tail — but it’s the only picture with all four kittens even remotely standing still, so there it is! One out of two kittens not moving… I’ll take …

We have a new boy in our home, and his name is Rigel. We will be showing him soon, and if all goes as planned he will be the father to many, many kittens. Rigel is a stunning solid blue. Pictures do not do him justice. (Rigel, by the way, is a giant blue star …

Well, this was an interesting way to spend New Years Day. Nutmeg began giving birth this morning and squirted out four cuties in rapid succession (we don’t call her “Machine Gun Megs” for nothing). Then she started to have trouble with Number Five. Try as she might, it wouldn’t come out. We ended up taking …

Normally when our vet x-rays an expectant mother she can give us a definitive count of how many kittens to expect. But things are so crowded inside Nutmeg that all she’ll commit to is “five to seven.” Looking at this, I can’t say I blame her. As usual, the dark stuff is just poop.

We’ve let the kittens out of the nursery and into the main part of the house so they can learn to socialize with other cats (and get more time with us, naturally). Needless to say, they are making themselves at home… Abigail Tipper has found her place in the sun. Jackie-O Bess is in Feisty …

We were taking pictures of the kittens for this year’s Christmas card, and briefly considered using this sequence. Cooler heads prevailed, but here it is for your enjoyment. Yeah, posing kittens is easy.

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.
