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 …

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 …

Nikki and Buster’s kittens are all doing well. They are getting plump and are very mobile, sometimes wandering away from mama and the other kittens (within the confines of the nest, of course).

Nikki gave birth to five plump kittens this morning, starting around 3:00AM (of course). Delivery took about an hour, with a MTBK (Mean Time Between Kittens) of ten minutes. Her great-grandmother, Nutmeg, was also known for popping out kittens quickly, earning the nickname “Machine-Gun Megs.” The kittens are hungry and squirmy, and Nikki is taking …
