The mother is gorgeous, she has unusual markings/colouring.

Not that I can find out, but the kittens are 2 boys and 2 girls - although that may change after the Adam/Addie and Jamie debacle with the Mythbusters.

They are called (at the moment), Mum - Hazel, the girls are Penelope and Honey, the boys are Sylvester and Marvin, collectively known as the Looney Fosters - for now!

Everyone twitching and dreaming.

It makes you realize the problems that people have when someone as experienced as FDJ can have difficulties with sexing a kitten.

They are gorgeous.

Mum was not much more than a kitten herself when she had this litter, they reckon she is about 9-10 months.

I keep thinking there's an extra kitten in there snuggling - but it's just Mum's ginger arm.

Oh my Goodness what is this?! That is so adorable! Is the Mum a really large cat or is it just the angle/distance of the camera?

Their wee legs stretching are so cute!

The kittens are only 2 weeks old so I think that gives you some idea - Mom is only a youngster herself so isn't that big.

She's a pretty girl - also one that's relaxed completely with FDJ. Twitching and dreaming like a steam train at the moment.

The kids have to get a daily fix of Crittercam, they are pestering for kittens constantly at the moment.

They are gorgeous!

I see that one little wanderer (taz is it?) collapsed into sleep om his travels and didn't make it back to the kitten lump.

Aw - Mum saw him and re-positioned so he's now got pole position at the milk bar. Love that sucking sound.

I need to find myself a job where I can have a tv in my office and can stream this in live every day!

I love how they're almost learning to use their little shaky front legs, but their back legs just drag along behind them.

What fat little kittens!

One looks like it's starting to bath itself now. Love it when they get stuck on their back and wave their paws around.

Obviously gave up. I love that about kittens. In the middle of an activity, they just fall straight asleep.

You don't visit for a couple of days and the kittens pretty well seem to double in size. What fat tumfies.

I woke up in the middle of the night last night (had a dream a big geko lizard climbed into my mum's mouth and down her throat and I had to pull it out by its tail Confused the fright woke me), ANYWAY! I went onto the kitten cam and managed to see them awake and three of them playing with each other and the big yellow fish for the first time!

Adorable.

They're wonderful - and so chubby now. (Although Mom being such a small cat gives a slightly skewed perspective on them.)

Amazing how ChickenFish appeals to generation after generation of kits. Probably worth buying one if you can source it.
