Title: In for a long night... new arrivals
Post by: madkittyrescue on May 03, 2008, 03:05:58 AM

Whilst awaiting on the kettle to boil for my caffeine fix just thought I'd drop you all a line to let you know that we have some new arrivals.    :wow:

It is now 3am and mum midnight is proud to announce the birth of her little angels.  Not been without problems sadly so far with 1 still born and 2 breech... but the surviving seem fine for now with 4 black and 1 grey.  By the 'feel' of things she still has another 1 to go!  so perhaps  few more caffeine fixes for me before I can make it to bed for a couple of hours kip!  :shocked:

I'd be a lot happier with a smaller number of kittens but these things are outwith our control.  Will update in a bit!  ;)

well good news... she stopped at 6!!  would have hated for her to have had any more.  She is the perfect mum and she and babies are doing well this morning.

Eventually got to bed for a couple of hours at 5am... so not too bad... and a busy day ahead with folks popping round to spend time with their booked cats.  :)

Just a quick note to let you all know that the little ones are doing grand.  Right little fatties they are too which is great to see and Mum has been getting plenty of rest after her difficult birth.  Apologies for not photos yet but still trying to find the cable to transfer from my phone!!  soon as I do (or should I say find where my OH has hidden it) I can get them updloaded! :)
