Lily's 2nd Batch Born 6-3-08

This is a first look at Lily's babies in what we like to call a meezer pile. The kittens are born white or cream colored and develop the points in a few days. We make sure to hold, kiss and talk to each one every day so that they and mom get used to being handled. Their eyes and ears are closed at birth so the touch and smell of us is important for them to learn.


This is a very happy Lily loving on her babies. Look at that contented face!


In just about 2 weeks everybody's eyes are open and the kittens begin batting at each other. Notice the toys in the box? Mom brought those in the kitten box with her!


Bathtime is frequent, the kittens squirm and fuss, aw mom cut it out!


Soon the kittens begin thinking outside the box! Let me out! I know there is fun stuff to do out there!

As soon as we bring them out they are terrified. Not too terrified to explore though. You know what they say about curiousity and the cat.

Soon they come to the edge of the bed, or the end of this world. They will go right off, so we are ready to catch them!

It seems like in no time they are big enough to get up on the bed all by themselves. This sweet baby is a lilac point.
