*coughs and calls the people who threw Chuck obscene names*

Glad Chuck is with you guys and that Bertha will be cared for too.....I just used the name because it had been suggested! ;)

Oh poor Chuck!  Have to say though, the name did make me giggle.

I think Bertha soundslike a grand name for the Tabby.

Bertha it is!

Oh no - not another round of kitten names beginning with B - that got me into trouble last time! :rofl:
perhaps I can do an artillery litter -  colt, sten, glock

Those stains weren't there 30mins ago. I do wish she'd waited a few days and hope the shock of the move hasn't caused any problems - don't want a repeat performance of last week. :(

Title: Re: covcats = todays arrivals + todays I think!
Post by: Angiew on July 27, 2009, 22:43:13 PM

Well Judith has just left to go back and feed her lot.

Bertha is up to 5. Just bedded them all in for the night so we shall se what the morning brings.

She was a very good mum - me thinks this was not her first time.

Believe its 4 black and whites and maybe one tabby/white (a little scrawny thing!).

so the official times are -
18-14
18-51
20-08
20-40 (the tabby)
21-25

Bertha looks deflated somewhat are tired. We did think there was another one but she's been reasonably settled this last hour.

me of to get a drink and sorry judth, I should have made us both a cuppa!

Title: Re: covcats = todays arrivals + todays I think!
Post by: LilyandGary on July 27, 2009, 23:13:52 PM

Sleep tight little ones, safe and sound.

I assume the father was a black and white LOL.......Bertha is stunning  and would have thought she would have had mostly tabbies!

She looks very pround and content  ;D

Bertha is quite rightly looking very pleased with herself! She looks a very content and capable mum

Post by: Wibblechick on July 28, 2009, 15:31:53 PM

I have to admit Bertha suits her, though I fear naughty Daisymac had Mr T's "friend" Busty Bertha" (who was introduced to Teabag during Jaffa's Birthday camp) - in mind  :rofl:

I believe Teabag is currently with his lawyer, taking advice on any potential paternity issues. ;)
