You will remember my post of Desiree,
the KOTD on 22 May. Well, yesterday, she started labor around 2 PM, at around 4 PM, she had the first of four lovely babies by breach birth. Two of the others would come out this way, too. Guess they wanted to be ready for running, jumping and playing kitten tag.
Anyway, I promised you a pic of the babies, and here they are. This was taken when they were just about 12 hours old.. these kits are HUGE! Each is about 5″ long from nose to haunches. Add another inch and a quarter for the tales.
As of now, they seem quite healthy. Mama is a great mama, and never strays far from her brood for more than a minute or so to eat, drink and eliminate. She’s an interesting study in feline motherhood, as she insisted on us acting as midwives for her…
Enjoy. I’ll try to post more pics as they grow until they go to their furever homes. (we will probably keep one).
