My girl is having her kittens! First one is here squeaking and healthy!

Second is imminent.

I think she’ll have 4 🤞🏽🤞🏽

What a lovely thread. I was thirsty and came down stairs for a drink, this has been a joy to follow. I love black cats too.
Get some much needed sleep.

Aww gorgeous. I adopted a pregnant cat some years ago and found thecatsite . com very helpful for advice.

Adorable. I follow a cat/kitten fosterer on FB (Love & Hisses) and it is so good for the soul. Whatever else is going on in the world, there’s love, kindness and lots of very cute kitten pics (just sayin’…). Congratulations!

All feeding and mummy is having a bowl
of tuna.

I am quite overwhelmed - I’m so proud of my girl and so glad she and her babies are all ok.

She came to get me when she went into labour. Then got in the nest I made for her a few days ago and the rest is history!

I’ll have a little tidy up and then try to get a few hours of sleep. DH is deffo on kid duty first thing. I can still get to work on time if I get up by 8.30.

DH is here all day tomorrow and Friday so they will not be alone.

Me too @nomas - they are fluffing up too. I love them. I don’t know how on earth I will be able to rehome them.

I have enough owners for a litter of 6 so I know they are all going to be loved though.

How long til you have to give them to the owners? That will be a hard day.

What a lovely thread. Congratulations!
