And Then There Were 3

We have 3 babies left, one sealpoint and two bluepoints.

Chantilly

Prada

Chloe

We had fun taking new pics this morning.
The kittens were a little suspicious of the tulips
but got into the spirit of things quickly.

A few new pics.

Quick Update

Three of our babies have already been spoken for. If you are thinking about getting one of these sweethearts don't wait much longer. Chloe (sealpoint girl) and Prada (bluepoint girl) are still available. The kitties will be ready to go after Feb. 20.

PRESENTING!!!

Blue, Seal and Lilac!
The little girl in the middle is Chloe,
she is the alpha cat in this crew
she is always the first at every new activity.
She is a very brave and silly kitty.

Myrrh's second litter is out and about!
We have one lovely lilac boy-Gibbs
(named for a pirate character from Pirates of the Carribean)
The four pretty girls are name for perfumes,
the Sealpoint girl is Chloe
the three Bluepoint girls are
Prada, Enjoli and Chantilly.

Gibbs and Chantilly
Little Gibbs is a quiet little guy,
I'm not sure its because he's the only boy
but he sure is a sweetheart.

Blue girls Enjoli and Prada
Joli has a much broader face more appleheaded.
Prada is a typical classic kitten.

Enjoli (Joli) is turning out to be a real buddy,
she seems quiet and sticks close to me.

How cute am I?

Tuckered out.

Merry Christmas

When cats squint their eyes like this, they are smiling.

Myrrh is real happy with what Santa brought in her stocking.
It's a Weezer! (wee+meezer)

These babies are getting big. They are already eating some baby kibble and using the little kitty box. One kitty tries to talk while she's eating-its a pretty funny thing to watch.

Proud mom and grandma.

Sisters

Lily likes to get in and help with her nieces and nephews.

Myrrh and Lily do everything together even raise the babies.

They are so calm and peaceful when there are kittens.

The kittens are toddling around now.

Their eyes and ears are open and they are trying to play with each other.

This bunch is very vocal.

When we say "hi, babies" several of them look up and meow at us.

Presenting!

Myrrh's babies arrived safe, sound and a little early (by my calculations) Wednesday evening.

The birthing process is always fun and interesting for me to observe. These cats really have purrsonalities. As soon as I saw that Myrrh was in labor, she was purring loudly and meowing some and her water had broken, I put her in the "kittening box". She lay right down and stayed there. She would leave if I didn't stay with her, so I quickly grabbed some towels, rags, dental floss (to tie embilical cords) scissors and rubbing alcohol to clean the scissors and we settled down to business.

The first kitten was born at 7 p.m. and the last at 10 p.m. Aunt Lily came by and kept an eye on precedings but just watched. Grandma Sheba helped a bit. She helped cut cords and clean up the new babies. Myrrh didn't require any assistance from me except to cut the cord on the last kitten. She was so tired I did this for her.

Baby Skye came by to visit and was very interested in all the commotion but hissed and left. Mia came to say hi and so did Oreo and Maggie. At one point there were kitties lined up just watching mom and her new babies, it looked a little like a feline version of the Nativity scene. Wish I'd had my camera for that one!

So the grand total is 5, not sure who is boys and girls yet but will sort that all out eventually.
