Since Queen Sara Saturday is royalty, we decided that her first litter should stick with that theme. These kids are all doing very well and have easily transitioned to solid food. Also very important: They learned to use the litter box with a minimal period of “thinking outside the box.” Maybe it’s their refined royal …

Starry Night gave birth to five beautiful kittens starting on Thursday, October 3rd at 11:37PM and finishing and hour later at 12:37AM on Friday. The delivery went very smoothly and all of the kittens are doing great. Maximums, the father, must have sensed something was up. He was hovering outside her door just before just …

Starry Night had her X-ray today, and it looks like she and Maximus are expecting five kittens around October 2nd! Well, Starry is expecting something. All Max expects is that we throw his toy so he can fetch it. He doesn’t think very far ahead. One of these kittens is reserved.

Queen Sara Saturday gave birth to four beautiful kittens in about an hour this afternoon. That might be a new record for one of our cats! Her great grandmother, Nutmeg, earned the nickname “Machine-gun Megs” for her ability to pop out kittens quickly during delivery, so it must run in the family. Sara and her …

When Lola was pregnant she was so big that she looked like she swallowed a basketball. Naturally, she gave birth to a bunch of little basketballs. Yes, the theme for this litter is basketball brands! We’re not exactly sports fans so we had to do a little research, but it turns out there are plenty …

Lola’s kittens were starting to walk so we opened up the nest. Within a few hours they were out exploring the kitten room. Eventually they ended up clustered back together in front of the closet door. Lola was not pleased. Meanwhile, Nikki’s kittens got their first set of vaccinations and have been introduced to the …

It’s amazing how quickly kittens grow. Here’s a picture from five days ago: Here’s a picture I took today (with absolutely no help from Lola!): It’s hard to tell from this picture but their eyes are open and they’re starting to walk around the nest a bit. Time to move them into a bigger nest …

Lola gave birth to seven big, beautiful kittens today. She was two days late, but maybe extra-big kittens need more time to bake in the uterus. As it happens with these things, Lola was showing no signs of going into labor this morning so we left the room for half an hour. When we came …

Nikki’s kittens are doing well! They’ve progressed to eating solid food and are kind of, sort of, mostly using the litter box. Although sometimes not. It’s important to watch our step when we go into the kitten room. They are very social for their age, often scurry toward us when they see us, and don’t …
